A perfect picture is worth its weight in gold for
marketing, and the annual foal pictorial is a wish
list of beautiful babies helping market the Morgan
breed. While I could not include every single photo, at least two
have been included from each farm taking part this year, and I
thank everyone for providing their babies to share for our reading enjoyment. There are some traffic-stoppers out there!
The CMHA has diligently financed the magazine production
over the years to ensure there is a lasting source of news and
information to keep Morgan members abreast of breed happenings. Thanks to renewed advertiser participation, last year was
the first time the magazine has finished the year in the black.
After two huge issues at the beginning of this year, we are looking even better for 2014, and I thank everyone who has stepped
on board to continue the support in this issue.
Our marketing opportunities are expanded as we distribute
this issue at the Grand National & World Championship Morgan
show in October, giving foal owners some lovely extra exposure!
As we approach the October 25 deadline for the year’s final
issue, I encourage you to join in the marketing action and acknowledge your Morgan achievement this year with an ad. It’s
a perfect time to thank buyers, to wish everyone the best for the
New Year, and to showcase showring achievements. But I need
your reservations by that October 25 deadline!
One part of the magazine that is most affordable and most in
need of your Morgan participation is the business card page. If
you offer lessons, young horses for sale, have a stallion at stud,
or offer other services such as trailering, boarding, or clincs, take
a moment to contact me about placing a business card ad for the
coming year. It is very affordable and keeps your contact information in an easy-to-spot place of each magazine issue. And you
are ensuring the contined support of the magazine! This is the
perfect way for you to dip your toe into the promotional waters
at a national, and in the case of this issue, the international level
for about the same cost as getting your Morgan’s toes trimmed.
A worthy investment, and farriers are welcome to advertise too!
And of course the annual stallion issue is right around the corner with a December 15 deadline to beat the holiday crunch.
Make a note on your calendar now. And if you are reading this
from south of the Candian border, remember that U.S. stallions
are always a welcome and anticipated part of this issue!
The best of luck to our Grand National-bound exhibitors, for a
safe and uneventful trip there and back, and for flawless passes
on the rail. Look for highlights in that November & December issue! To everyone else, enjoy changing gears with this very
cool fall weather and digging in for another Weather Channel
winter. My furnace is already on, telling me it promises to be an
eventful one!

Administrator’s Missive
President’s Message
It’s that time of year! The show season
draws to a close and we are working on our
projects to prepare for the winter once again.
As I have mentioned before, there are no
words to express everyone’s gratitude to the
volunteers that work endless hours in order for our local clubs
and zones to host events for each and every one of us to enjoy. A
huge thank you to each of you!
Many of you have received numerous requests from different organizations to “opt in” to continue to receive electronic
correspondence from them. This is because as of July 1, 2014 a
new Anti-Spam Law has come into force in Canada. The CMHA
understands there is an “implied consent” for the CMHA to continue to correspond electronically with any of its members and
anyone who was a member within the past two years.
On another note, the CMHA has been dealing with a few
registry issues. The Canadian Livestock Records Corporation
(CLRC) provides a complete line of registry services for the
CMHA. The CMHA does not perform registry services. I realize when we are purchasing our new Morgan, we are excited
and may not remember to “dot the i’s or cross the t’s,” BUT,
it is a “Buyer Beware” market out there and unfortunately, the
CMHA is not in a position for force someone’s hand to resolve
civil cases. The CMHA can, however, strongly encourage both
sides to work toward a peaceful resolution in every case.
In closing, I would like to express our condolences to the
Karen Abel family. Karen was an avid supporter for the breed
and I certainly miss her candid remarks during the conference
calls. For all you have done for the Morgan breed provincially,
nationally, and internationally, I say “Thank you Karen!”
Melissa MacKenzie
President
There is an exciting new contest that is being
offered by the CMHA and this should appeal to
everyone who enjoys videoing their beautiful
Morgan horses. The CMHA Promotion Chairperson Dianne Brown is spearheading this contest, thank you Dianne for this great idea.
Rules are available on the website and were printed in the last
issue of the magazine but just contact me if you would like a form/
rules sent to you. Called “Share The Passion,” we are hoping to raise
more awareness to our breed and have some fun at the same time.
This contest is open to CMHA members; youth, adults or Affiliate Clubs. Winning videos will be showcased on the CMHA website. Video submissions will feature the versatility of the Morgan
horse and the individual’s or Affiliate Club’s particular passion for
the Morgan horse. CMHA’s tag line, “Share the Passion “will be
the underlying theme of the video. Start collecting your ideas, photos, and video clips now. Deadline for applications is 5:00 pm PST
Friday, January 30, 2015. This is your opportunity to showcase to
Canada and the world your perspective on “Sharing the Passion”
for Canada’s Morgan horse.
As the end of August draws near, most foals will have been
born; congratulations to all on your healthy arrivals! And don’t forget about your paperwork; the more time passes, the harder it is to
remember all the details.
It would be nice to see our registration numbers rise a little

above our 2013 numbers. I have included some statistics for all to
digest and while I am not advocating breeding just “because you
have a mare,” I am advocating that serious breeders need to register
their animals; this is your legacy and the integrity of the registry
depends on you.
As of the end of July, we have registered 119 Morgans and six
Part-Morgans. Let’s all strive to make 2014 a better year for the
registry and send in those registrations and transfers!

AMHA TO ACQUIRE NMMH SHELBURNE, VT—Through a series of transactions between the American Morgan Horse Association (AMHA), American Morgan Horse Institute (AMHI), and American Morgan
Horse Educational Charitable Trust (AMHECT), the AMHA will
acquire and operate the National Museum of the Morgan Horse
(NMMH) effective August 1, 2014.
AMHA Board President Jeff Gove stated, “We are pleased
to continue the legacy of the Museum under the AMHA banner.
This is a unique opportunity for ‘all things Morgan’ both past
and present to come together.” AMHA Executive Director Julie
Broadway added, “The NMMH is the guardian of the Morgan’s
rich history and we are honored to have them become part of the
AMHA family and the opportunity to work with Middlebury College in preserving that history. We see this as a strategic business
move to more closely align and integrate all facets of the Morgan
community under one umbrella.”
Gove added, “We applaud AMHI for their stewardship of the
Museum these past 30-plus years and will endeavor to build on
their work. Many thanks to all the Trustees for their leadership.”
The NMMH, located in Middlebury, Vermont, is dedicated to
preserving and interpreting all aspects of the Morgan horse breed
through educational programs, exhibits, and special events. The
Museum has an exhibit space that displays quarterly rotating
exhibits focusing on the history of the breed. The Museum also
maintains its archives at the Middlebury College library, which is
open to researchers.
No operational changes for the Museum are planned at this
time, and the Museum will remain in Middlebury under the direction of Helen Herold, who will report to Broadway. The museum
will continue to be funded by donations, grants, retail sales, fundraising events and interest accrued from its endowment.

Yo u t h
Melanie Thomas
Hello. My name is Melanie
Thomas, I am 15 years old, and
was born and raised in Bowmanville, Ontario. I am entering grade 11 at St. Stephens
Catholic Secondary School.
We are a family of four and the
proud owners of a 15-year-old
Morgan mare named Mystic.
Horses, especially Morgans, have always been a big part of my life ever since
I took that first lesson as a seven-year old
at Trillium Equine Complex in Orono. My
weekly, then bi-weekly lessons with Cathy
Sampson quickly became the highlight of
my week.
We had just started showing at some
small fairs and home shows at Trillium up
until 2009, when our whole family moved
to Zurich, Switzerland for my dad’s work.
I continued to ride there and learned a
lot from my instructor, Fritz Jseli and his
horses Tessa (a beautiful Swiss Warmblood) and Ronja (a feisty pony).
Three years later, it was great to return
to my home barn in Canada and the Morgans I love. I continued my riding lessons
at Trillium, enjoying every moment of it.
Together, Cathy and Bob Sampson transformed my life and taught me everything
I know about the Morgan horse. I have
learned so much from the Sampsons and
will always be grateful. Not only have I
had ongoing support from them, but also
from my family. I am lucky enough to have
my family be there for me and support me
through my journey with horses. My dad
even drives Morgans now and is looking
forward to his first show next summer!
A year ago, my family and I decided
it was time to take the plunge and finally
purchase our first Morgan horse. Startrend
Mystic Visions is your typical Morgan
horse; which is anything but ordinary. She
is beautiful, versatile, and has the most
winning personality. Mystic is everything I
ever wanted in a horse. She loves children,
8
September/October 2014
which makes her
a big hit with my
little brother Nathan. She has such
a fun personality,
but always knows
when she needs to
be gentle towards
children.
Mystic
always manages to
put a smile on my
face, no matter my mood before entering
the barn. After a tough day at school, I can
always count on her to positively change
my mood. My Morgan means everything
to me, and I know she will always be there
for me when I need her most.
Throughout the long winter, Mystic
and I got to know each other and prepared
for the upcoming show season. Our first
show was a success. Even though we
didn’t earn many ribbons, I learned more
and more about my horse, and was proud
of our performance. More shows passed,
and Mystic and I were becoming a better
team, we knew each other better. I was
very happy with our results at shows, and
proud of how far we had come.
Recently, we attended the 2014 Ontario Morgan and Saddlebred Classic. This
was my first two-day show with Mystic.
We were in some classes against tough
competition and were pleasantly surprised
with a third against the adults and we even
won the Hunter Hack class! The show was
a success and I was once again proud of
our performance.
The atmosphere at the Classic was
amazing! It was of course a little stressful, but it really helped to have so many
encouraging and helpful people there.
I’m grateful for the new friends that were
made, and also to meet up again with
friends from last year. Even though I was
competing against amazing riders like
Ashley Reeson, Emily Miller, Rebekah
Shield and Mackenzie Collins, they were
always kind and encouraging. My close
friend Lucy Nesbitt was also there for me
the whole weekend which really helped
with my nerves. Although not a competitor, she is an amazing rider and was there
to help the Trillium family too. We were
all grateful for her help.
Thanks so much for letting me share
about my life with Morgans!
Brady Groot
Hi,
my name
is Brady
Groot. I
am nineyear old
and
am
in fourth
grade in
St.
Augustine
Catholic
School in
Alberta. I am on the cross-country running
team and also the track and field team. My
favourite subject is science. I like to show
and do trail rides. Last month we went to
the mountains riding again, it’s really fun
to ride across the rivers!
I started in the walk/trot division when I
was seven years old and rode AMS Lasting
Impression. He was a good boy for me and
I won lots of yellow and green ribbons! Yellow is my favourite colour. Last year I started
riding Tazara Windigo. He has much more
energy than “Freddie” had. “Damien” made
me work much harder, which improved my
riding a lot. I started winning thirds and seconds and even got a first!
This spring I got to have some lessons
with Jessica Cavanaugh and had lots of
fun and she helped to teach me to canter
better. I have been practicing to get better
this summer, some days Damien canters
better than others!
This year I have had a really good time
in the shows. At the last show I won five
firsts, two thirds, and my first championship! It was so fun!

Taking top spot was Sherri & Deanna Wilson’s gorgeous stallion, The Last Viking.
Viking was handled to this victory by Josh
Piatt of Champion Hill. It was so great to
have Champion Hill join us from the other
side to the border. Hopefully they will be
back to join us next year! Second in the
class was Brenda Casteel’s super handsome youngster, Millenium Ultra Hot. It is
very exciting to see what this young man
will grow up to be! Rounding out this nice
class was Anita Jackson’s colt Baronial
Mr. Charisma, it was so wonderful to see
Anita and her daughter Stacy back at the
Classic. This long time breeder and exhibitor was a very welcome addition to the
show and we sure hope we see them back
in the years to come – they have some really nice youngsters that need to be shown
off. In the 5 & over division Sherri and
Deana Wilson’s new stallion brought the
crowd to the rail. Harlan’s Azurean, shown
by Josh Piatt, is big, bold and impressive.
This show-stopper of a stallion is standing at Champion Hill farm, hopefully we
will see some of his babies at the show in
years to come. Three stallions came back
for the championship. It was the park stallion Harlan’s Azurean who trotted away
with the championship. The Last Viking
made it a clean sweep for the Wilsons in
the stallion division, winning the reserve
champion title. A great day for Deana and
Sherri.

Hunter Pleasure
As has been the trend over the past
several years, the hunter division was the
most popular for entries. We started off
with our novice horses and it was Ashley
Reeson and her longtime partner Northline Enterprise taking the victory pass.
This duo have been out of the ring for a
while but came back with tremendous success. Second place went to PCC Don’t
Stop Believin’ and Gabrielle Sandel of
New York. This lovely pair shows under
the Champion Hill banner. The 5 and over
class saw six very nice entries, it was Chris
Monteith’s always reliable and handsome
Brogin Kiri coming out on top. Second
place went to Northline Enterprise. The
ladies didn’t disappoint, Lisa Kavanagh
had a nice ride on Allison Short’s big black
gelding Samor’s Black Jack for the win,
Northline Enterprise took another nice
second. In the limit horse class PCC Don’t
Stop Believin’ won with HD Troy filling
in the second hole. Troy is really coming
into his own this season and just seems to
get better with every class, he is owned
by Heather and Axel Starck and shown
by Patti Hoskin. The championship was
a great class to watch, once again coming
out on top was Chris Monteith and Brogin
Kiri, in reserve was Samor’s Black Jack
and Lisa Kavanagh.
The hunter youth then took their turn
in the ring. In the qualifier we saw the
dynamic duo of Mackenzie Collins and
Attn Postmaster take top honours. Second
went to Melanie Thomas’ great new mare
Startrend Mystic Vision; these two really
seem to be coming together as a great new
team. The championship once again saw
Mackenzie and Attn Postmaster taking the
victory pass. Reserve went to the entry
from across the border PCC Don’t Stop
Believin’ and Gabrielle Sandel.
Park Saddle
It was so fun to see the park division
back at the classic! Although there was
only one entry, he certainly was a great
one! Winning both the qualifier and the
championship was Sherri and Deana Wilson’s stallion Harlan’s Azurean. This outstanding stallion was shown by Josh Piatt
of Champion Hill Farm. Hopefully we will
see the exciting stallion showing back in
Canada soon!
Miscellaneous
Next we welcomed the future into the
ring with our leadline riders. For walk- trot
leadline class we saw two entries, Annika
Copeland and Lilly both had giant smiles
on their faces as they took on the always
difficult trot. Great work ladies! Speaking
of the little ones, we can’t go without mentioning the largest class of the show – the
stick horse class with 15 entries!
High Points were handed out for the
Hunter Hack division and the Youth. The
hunter hack champion was Laurel Gould’s
lovely new mare UVM Pumpkin, showing
duties were split between Laurel and Lesley
Vivian. Reserve went to Brenda Casteel’s
SN Center of Attention who was shown
by Emily Miller. The Morgan Youth High
Point Champion was Mackenzie Collins
and Reserve was Rebekah Shield.
Another new class this year was the
Double Jeopardy class, where two riders
of the same seat team up. They ride the

on who gets the best performance from
two different horses. Coming out victorious was Greg Reeves who rode his own
mare Chestnut Hill Felicity the first way of
the ring and Cyan Star Trinity the second
way. Second place went to Greg’s partner Nancy Kavanagh who also had lovely
rides on these western pleasure horses.
Third and fourth went to the saddle seat
horses, Laura O’Reilly earned bragging
rights by placing ahead of her daughter (on
Brynn’s horses).
Once again the Classic was a great
show, put on by great people! A huge
thank you needs to go out to everyone
who works year-round preparing for this
show. Also, a big thank you to all of the
exhibitors who come out and support the
show. If there is anyone out there who
wants to come and start showing, there really is something for everyone. Feel welcome to contact an OMHC member, there
are many of us who would be more than
happy to help you get started! It will be
exciting to see how this show continues to
evolve for next year!

Alberta Morgan Horse Show
photos & article by Shari Groot
This year’s Alberta Morgan Horse
Show has come and gone and we are, as
always, refreshed in the knowledge that
the Morgan is thriving in Alberta. The
weather was sunny but not hot, which
made for perfect temperatures for both
the horses and riders! Our judge for this
year was Harold Angell from Nevada.
The show committee consisted of Leann
Dixon, Shari Groot, Del Burns and Bea
Dixon. Although it is a lot of work putting
a show together, it was very successful and
we are looking forward to next year.
The show started out with the dressage
and trail divisions running concurrently,
and both were well-filled. The trail champion was Willa Schwab riding Annie Get
Your Gun followed in reserve by Kathy
Hawkins aboard DVF Seacrest Out. Because our walk/trot/jog age group is so
large, our show also includes a walk/trot/
jog trail class to introduce young riders to
the division. This class was won by Brady
Groot riding Tazara Windigo.
The Dressage arena was visited with
15 patterns judged and many very nice
tests were performed.
The weanling futurity brings out the
best from our breeders, and this year’s
Vern Baron with his filly Canabar
Jubilation.
winners were Morgan Hill Stompin’
Tom sired by SYP High Definition for
the Comeau family, with The Delightful
Rose sired by The Ignitor in reserve for
the Groots. In yearlings there was Gold
Dipped Diamonds taking the tri-color for
Dakota Ferrence, and in reserve
was Morgan Hill Coup de Ville
for the Comeau’s second win. The
two-year old winner was Center of
Attention for Kayshia Langille.
The in-hand champions began
with mares. Tamrac’s Renne de
Soleil took the tri-color, while reserve was Unconditional. For the
geldings it was BMF Secret Code
taking the title and Bred to Boogie

was Morgan Hill Stompin’ Tom.

lyn Walker aboard, and the reserve
winner was Vern Baron riding his black
mare Windys Dancing Monarch. The
youth championship was taken by Courtney Pack aboard BMF Mastermind, with
Catriona Kozijn riding Boxford Twist and
Shout for the reserve. Catriona continued
to build on her achievements by claiming
our 2014 Open Western Pleasure Champion with Boxford Twist and Shout. Reserve
was DTA Aces Wild owned by Tracy Nakonechny and shown by Stephanie Abel.
Our competitive hunter division
proved to be very well-attended with deep
entries. Amateur was taken by Tamrac’s
Enzo owned by Emilie Wendland and Reserve went to TamRac’s Maximum Velocity owned by Brenda Wangert. The junior
exhibitor championship was a big, talentloaded class with BMF Giada and Aidan
Lorenson coming out with the red and in
Reserve came SGP Grand Illusion with
Foekje Baarda in the saddle. The open
hunter champions were KSG Walz After
Midnight with owner Hannah Krewusik
in the saddle, and taking home the reserve
was TamRac’s Renne de Soleil owned and
ridden by Jordan Reid.
The English pleasure division was
strong and well-filled. The amateur champion was DU Absolutely Courageous with
Leann Dixon up. The youth championship
was earned by VVM Well Deserved with
Jessa Dumkee riding, while Whitemud
Blue Diamond and rider Courtney Pack
took home reserve. Completing this division with the Championship was Harlington’s Indira owned by Shirley Hunter and
presented by Sonja Lorenson, the reserve
winner was Whitemud Blue Diamond
ridden by Megan Pack for owner Lorelei
Friedrick.
In the classic pleasure division the junior exhibitor champions were Saralins
Conductor with Georgina Sanche up, and
the reserve went to Morgan Hill Monster
Mash with rider Skye Davies. The Classic
Champion was awarded to FCF Fandango
Canadian Morgan

and Robyn Davies at the reins, with the reserve going to Saralins Conductor ridden
by Georgina Sanche.
It was a refreshing sight to see a fantastic increase in the driving division! This
year’s champion was BMF Treat Me Gently with owner Harvey Sawatzky as whip.
In the reserve position was KLN Final
Destiny with Lorelei Friedrick.
In the open Morgan Pleasure Driving
Championship, Harold Angell gave the
championship to VVM Well Deserved and
driver Christa Dumkee and the reserve to
FRF Swept Away with Cathy Gillen navigating for owner Hailey Wickens.
The equitation division was extremely
competitive as it always is. The winners
included Catriona Kozijn, Jordan Reid,
Amy Taskinen, Taylor Lunny, Georgina
Sanche, Kaija Meetsma, and Robyn Davies. This was a large division with 13
competitors.
The Walk/Trot/Jog classes are well
filled with 15 eager participants as well.
The winners were Brady Groot, Hailey
Wickens, Maya Beakhouse, Bentlee Kublik, and Wasimaye Sana. It is exciting to
look at these kids and see the up-and-coming promise for our Breed.

Victory Passes in Vancouver
New
life is being
breathed
into
the
Vancouver
Charity
Horse show, and plans are underway to
draw Morgan enthusiasts in for the July
22-25 show in 2015.
The Vancouver Charity Horse Show is
an annual four-day show, bringing together spectators, exhibitors, vendors and investors to one location, in Vancouver, British Columbia at historic Hastings Park. All
proceeds from the show go directly to The
Richmond Therapeutic Equestrian Society. The mission of the show is to generate
growth and interest in the Breed Sport Industry whilst giving back to equine-related
charities that enrich our community.
Morgans are at the forefront of the
show, and when asked why, Director Peter
Morrison offered this explanation: “I was
very fortunate to have had the opportunity
to show Morgans as a junior rider, specifically for Ms. Chloe Miller who allowed
me to show her mare Dame Dolce at New
England and Granite State so many years
ago. At that time as well, I had the wonderful opportunity to ride under Cindy Mugnier’s tutelage at Fox Meadow Farm in
Granby, Massachusetts. My love of Morgan horses has never left me, and when I
moved to BC, I was dismayed to find out
the once vibrant Morgan industry here had
almost disappeared, with Morgan owners
forced to travel hundreds of miles to show
their horses. I knew this had to change.”
With breeding and horse show numbers becoming alarmingly low, the current
directors came together realizing something had to be done. They all agreed that
horse shows are a key marketing and sales
opportunity, and where better than to attract new clients and showcase Morgans
than in the city itself.
The directors also realized that no one
breed could take on this undertaking alone;
horse shows today are all about numbers
and being able to break even. Horse shows
need to be about enjoyment, and most importantly inclusion. The Vancouver Charity
Horse Show is dedicated to the promotion
of Morgans, Saddlebreds, Arabians, Friesians, and Hackney Ponies, but it equally
promotes open classes of which all breeds
are most welcome to be a part.
The show aims to welcome owners,
trainers, and breeders from throughout
North America. With daily parties for participants, a trade show for vendors, activities for spectators, and a wonderful class
selection, all set in one of the world’s most
beautiful cities, it aims to become a destination show for exhibitors and spectators
alike.

Morgan Specific
Finishing In Front
It is the first sight we see when our
Morgans enter the show ring; the highstepping legs, brilliant eyes in an expressive face and the proud arched neck with
flowing mane. It is the forehand. Like the
other parts of the Morgan’s body we have
discussed, this area needs to be strengthened and developed to perform at its fullest potential.
All Morgans have a natural head carriage, and this is helpful because of structure and build as Catherine Sampson of
the Trillium Equine Complex says. She
acknowledges being long-necked or short
necked doesn’t matter, it is how the head
is attached that is important.
“I learned a long time ago just because
we think a horse has a certain look, it
should be fashioned and shaped to a particular discipline such as a hunter, western pleasure horse or saddle seat horse,”
Sampson says.
She warns this may not be the right
choice. There are many factors besides
just conformation that contribute to a
Morgan’s performance, such as personality and temperament. By forcing what is
believed to be a good headset, the Morgan’s “comfort level” can be compromised. Her view on head set is that it is
nothing more than finding a Morgan’s
natural head carriage.
Wendy Inch of Sunny Acres Morgan Horse Farm has a similar opinion.
She says a head carriage should be a byproduct of a Morgan properly trained to
use their hind end and “work over their
back.” This means the Morgan carries
its head naturally after accepting contact
through the bit to the hands. Inch agrees
head carriage shouldn’t be forced into a
position with equipment, but through acceptance of aids and training. She suggest
watching how horses move in the pasture,
naturally and freely, and watch the joint
movements, gaits, and head carriage. This
field watching could give an idea of what
discipline a Morgan would do the best in,
22
September/October 2014
though it doesn’t mean training won’t help
the Morgan excel in other areas. As well,
temperament (as mentioned before) can
help determine what the Morgan would be
happiest doing.
It seems to be common knowledge not
all Morgans are created equal. This is especially true when training and should be considered for optimum success. Inch suggests
creating a series of exercises to strengthen
weak areas and improve flexibility, helping
the Morgan truly enjoy its work.
“The goal of training any horse is to
improve what they already have,” Inch
says, “Not every individual is a World
Champion, but with patient and progressive training, one can bring the best out
in them and develop their musculature,
improving their performance and making
them a winner in their own way.”
So how does one encourage a head set?
Head carriage takes time and patience.
“There are no short cuts,” says Inch.
You need to create a flexible frame (accepting of aids and soft in the hands) by
activating the hindquarters (part 1), stretching over the back (part 2), and establishing
softness through the body. Inch develops
individual training programs to address
each Morgan’s specific issues. She finds
the best bit of starting a young Morgan,
or retraining an older or soured horse, is a
Myler Comfort Snaffle (MB-02 or 04). She
says this bit is easy on the mouth and gives
a decent level of tongue relief.
Sampson agrees. “If the horse is not
properly prepared and collected by its
rider, it can’t be expected to understand or
even find the right zone of head carriage.”
Sampson prefers the use of elastic side
reins in training as the elastics give once
the horse relaxes; as a reward. Her training sessions build over a long period of
time so the Morgan can stretch and the
horse, itself, is willing. She starts out with
a relaxed rein or over-check, then shortens
them gradually over time until the Morgan
is accepting of the new position. During
by Heather Dilts-Baiano
cool down at the end of a session, Sampson also loosens the reins so the horse can
stretch through the neck and back.
Now comes the mention of draw reins,
since they are often used by many trainers
and backyard riders to promote a desired
head set. They should be used sparingly,
Sampson says, and she includes a warning. A constant use of draw reins can be
likened to punishment if not used correctly. Too many use this training device
to force a head position.
“Think of it this way,” Sampson says.
“Tuck your chin in as far as you can without dropping your head and hold it for 60
seconds, then release. You will soon find
that you neck and shoulders are sore and
you are in pain. There is no release. Now
hold that thought and try tucking your
chin in for 10 seconds and then relax.”
She goes on to say to gradually increase
the amount of time to hold one’s chin for
a full 60 seconds, and when you can hold
the whole time you will have stretched the
muscles and conditioned yourself (properly). Your Morgan is the same, it needs
to stretch and relax its poll as it develops
muscles to support the ideal head carriage.
Some common problems that can arise
during the training process include getting
behind the bit, leaning on the bit, and over
flexing. Both Inch and Sampson acknowledge these issues come from how the Morgan has been trained, than on conformation,
being a way of resisting and avoiding pain.
Inch notices that when a horse is behind
the bit, it often has the issue of leaning on
the rider’s hands. Many horses that have
one problem actually have both. The Morgan has been ridden more on its forehand
than from the hindquarters, or the rider’s
hands have been too heavy. The Morgan
did not learn, or developed the muscles, to
carry itself and does not accept the aids.
Naturally, horses want to move forward. If your Morgan seems slow or
hesitant, they could be stiff or sore. Inch
recommends stretching exercises for the

back (of your Morgan), lateral bending, and checking for any
lameness issues before serious training starts.
So, through this article and the previous two in earlier issues,
we have discussed the importance of developing the hindquarters (the engine), the back (the drive train), and now the forehand of our show and pleasure Morgans. By strengthening and
working on all of those parts, we are developing a well-trained
equine athlete. We should pay the same attention to ourselves,
as keeping in top condition will only aid our four-legged partner
to achieve success. After all, how can we expect our Morgan to
perform at its best if we are not performing at ours?
As Sampson says, “Pull your tummy in, stand tall and don’t
forget to breathe. That is how your horse should be: balanced,
relaxed and strong.”
May you have new and continued success with your Morgan
for the rest of the year!
