Riots Pride (aka BB)
BB is a 4 year old black Canadian Sport Horse stallion, standing 16.1hh. His Dam is "Decorated Dream" (16.3hh TB) and his sire is "Riot" (17.1hh Hanoverian) by the famous "Rio Grande". He was bred by Carolyn Baird of Oakwood, Ontario and is now owned by Anita Cholack and Rob Marling of Chomar Hill Equestrian Centre, Barrie, Ontario.

Carolyn has been a long time shoeing client of Rob's and he happened to be there to help with BB's delivery. Rob was enthusiastic as this horse matured, seeing the abundance of ability that he offered. His career started at a young age showing on the line and then under saddle when purchased and trained by Anita & Rob. In 2007 Rob and BB qualified to compete in the prestige Lieutenant Govenor's Cup class at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair where only 20 horses across the country were invited. At the Royal Anita took over the reins riding the only stallion in the class and having a flawless ride. Rob also showed BB at the Royal in the 3 year old Canadian Sport Horse colt/gelding class and pinned 6th overall. BB displays endless attributes of athleticism to go in the jumper, dressage or eventing world.

In 2009 he will be showing in the 5 year old Jumper Development Series as well as eventing and dressage. Having an incredible mind, BB is versatile and accepting to overcome any obstacle!

Congratulations to BB for being our November 24^th, 2008 Horse of the Week.
