Harcourt Fenton Mudd –
              Currently on lease to Leslie Ayers, Congratulations!

aka “Harry,” 20 year old chestnut warmblood gelding. Trained to Prix St. George/I1 by Suzan. Harry has been part of this family since birth and we love the big lazy galut. He has helped to teach countless riders dressage and jumping safely and with confidence. Harry has given so many different riders blue ribbons in dressage, hunters, equitation over fences, 4 foot jumpers on the grass and horse trials, a truly valued member of our family. He is also sure Suzan is his mom, ever since she pulled the placenta off his nose so he could breathe.
