Our very own Kate and her mare Mary had a fantastic showing at the recent 3-phase event held at Orchard Hill Farm in Berlin, MA!
Mary looked stunning in her Shires Avignon Three-Point Breastplate, Horseware Rambo Micklem Competition Bridle, and a comfy Back on Track Mathilda All-Purpose Saddle Pad.
Kate looked equally prepared in her Ariat Heritage Contour II Field Zip Tall Riding Boots, B Vertigo Tiffany Silicone Full-Seat Breeches, and a cool Tailored Sportsman Women's Long-Sleeve Icefil Zip-Top Shirt for those hot summer days. Safety first, of course, with her trusty Charles Owen Ayr8+ Plus Helmet and Roeckl Roeck-Grip Lite Riding Gloves. (We know you can't see it in the picture, but Kate swears by her trusty RWR No-Knot Hairnet for keeping her hair in place!)

About Us
The Cheshire Horse is a leading source for horse, pet, and farm supplies in the Northeast. Established in 1997, The Cheshire Horse is a family owned and operated business located in Swanzey, NH, with a partner store in Saratoga Springs, NY. The Cheshire Horse retail stores and CheshireHorse.com offer a one-stop shopping destination for animal owners.
Our Beginnings
In 1997, The Cheshire Horse grew out of the Hamshaw family’s long-established business, Hamshaw Lumber in Keene, New Hampshire. The Cheshire Horse's original modest 1,200-square-foot shop catered to the local equestrian community in Keene. By 2002, The Cheshire Horse outgrew its original location and moved into a 4,000-square-foot site also in Keene, which allowed for expanded inventory and growth. A year later in 2003, The Cheshire Horse of Saratoga opened its doors in New York State.
