Kelly Smith - Creekside Show Stable: A Tradition of Champions

 Kelly SmithAlong with Dressage, Hunt Seat is one of the two classic forms of English riding and is based on the tradition of fox hunting. Hunter seat competitions in general are divided into three general horse show categories, hunters, equitation, and jumpers. Show hunters as a group are judged on manners, way of going, and conformation. Jumpers are judged by how quickly a horse can complete a course of jumps with the fewest errors, called faults. Equitation riders are judged on the appearance of the rider and the smoothness and overall look of the horse and rider as a team.

With over 15 years professional experience in the horse business, Kelly Smith presents a strong background and outstanding credentials.

As a professional horsewoman, Kelly's experience is well rounded and includes training, coaching and showing at every level, from Futurity Hunter Champions to the Grand Prix Ring. Some of Kelly's career highlights include being named the 2001 World Champion Hunter Rider and winning the 2002 Legacy Cup Championship.

Kelly believes that a strong foundation with an emphasis on solid equitation and overall quality horsemanship directly relates to success in any equestrian discipline. Kelly has proven the success of her program time and again with numerous USEF and Regional Association Year-End Champions and Horse of the Year Awards.

With a knack for finding and developing quality young horses, here is a list of some of the Champions Kelly has started, discovered and/or trained: Keep The Change, Oaces, Legal Tide, Paganini, Regalo, Social Butterfly, Unfourgettable, Stuka, Hallmark, Sebastiaan, Topas, Bear Neccessity, Winsome, Smoke and Mirrors, Dream Girl, Splash, Nadoo, Just Harry, Quattro, Lionel, Lascaux, Lyric, Get Smart, Velocity, J.R Cash and Country Road... to name a few.
