Terri and Judy Bodman Celebrate After A Major Win
Over the years, it has been our great privilege to work with amazing people, both young and young at heart, who have all had a common dream, that of becoming the soul partner of a magnificent animal and testing their talents against the best the Nation had to offer. These photos are of but a few of our Amateur and Junior Exhibitor Champions that have seen their dreams come true while under our guidance. They have all contributed to the success of Rickford Stables and we're grateful to them for the opportunity and the memories they gave us
