2008 has been a year of ups and downs for the Lewis-Greene Dressage Team. My newest dressage partner Picasso's Bleu "Pablo" (1997 Black KWPN gelding) started his show season off with wins at 3rd and 4th Level, qualifying for Dressage @ Devon in his first 3 outings and qualifying for the BLM, ESDCTA and GAIG regional finals at 3rd and 4th Levels. Unfortunately 2 weeks before Devon we ran into a problem after shoeing and are now looking at several months of stall rest for an irritated suspensory and possible collateral ligament injury. Time, shock wave therapy and lots of SORE NO MORE will hopefully see us back in action for 2009.

Madeline -owned by Gloria Weintrub turned 18 but is still going strong at Prix St. Georges. She recently placed 4th in the ESDCTA championships in the FEI class and placed 6th in the GAIG regional finals at Prix St. Georges. She also helped me to earn my USDF Bronze and Silver medals.

My husband Doug Greene did some 1st Level dressage competitions this year on Holly Yanick's horse Eskapade that he half leases. Unfortunately due to his Military career he did not get to compete as much as they would have liked. Eskapade had a tough Spring with 2 seperate virus's. After Eq Stim and CITRUS C/Q we finally have him back on track. I was very impressed with the results we got from using the CITRUS C/Q. I saw a definate improvement in appetite and attitude with in the first week of using this product. Doug is looking forward to 2009 for a strong showing at 2nd Level in the Spring.

This month I moved my base of operations to Chesterfield Farm in Chesterfield NJ. The horses have settled in well and I am looking forward to new opportunities in a fun and friendly environment.
