2017 Cape Breton Tour

Our 10th anniversary in 2017 involved our annual visit to Northside Downs in North Sydney,NS involving bringing back a track favorite but this time under saddle . Dusty Lane Lass performed very well and was applauded by owners/friends/audience at Northside that day.
It also reflected the retirement of a track favorite who was well know to holding track record there for a very long time.
Shifty Shadow retired and came to Morning Star Acres for his retirement and to be retrained to saddle to later find a good home. 2 champions in their days reflected in this picture.
The very first race owner who brought
a horse to our facility and program
to come back and actually ride and be
up on their horse after racing them.
Matt Dodington swords were feels odd
as I used to stare at her butt but now
as I sit here I am looking down on her
and see her head.
A wonderful feeling !!!
Car has gone back to her owners. Congrats to the Dodington Family.
Thank you for your support.
Morning Star Acres has its very own Equine Obstacle Course to help train horses in desensitization and more. Built and designed by MSA Owner/Founder Gisele Gariepy. It is built in order to be able to work horses on the ground and also under saddle. Each obstacle has a special job for the horses.
The obstacle course is open to the public or anyone who wants to come lease it by the hour to introduce or desensitize their horse. The fee which will go right back to the horses is $50/hour per horse. No more than a group of 3 at a time. Reduce rate by group 3 horses $125/hour. We will not accommodate a pasture nor hay but will be sure horses have access to water.. Bring your horses to this fabulous Obstacle course. Located only 35 minutes from Moncton.
