Whitney Farms, and our daughter Allie in particular, suffered a great loss this week with the sudden passing of A Hunt For Fine Wine.  "Merlot" was an incredibly accomplished horse in his short life, and he will be sorely missed.

We would like to congratulate Allie Whitney on her Reserve World Championship in the ApPHA Non-Pro/Youth Western Pleasure Maturity at the ApHC World Show, as well as her top 10 finishes in the ApPHA Limited Two-Year-Old Snaffle Bit Western Pleasure Futurity and the Open Three-Year-Old Snaffle Bit Western Pleasure.

This week also saw the first foal to show by Hot Smokin Chip earn a Reserve World Championship in Open Hunter In Hand Yearling Colts with Cathy Wood.

Overall, it was a great week.  It's shows like this that make my job so great.  Thank you everyone for making it such a great show!  -  Andrea Whitney
