Pogi and Amy have since
been named to two Olympic Teams and two World Equestrian Games
Teams. They've brought home a Team Gold Medal and an Individual
Bronze Medal from the World Games, plus a Team Bronze Medal from the
Olympic Games.
In 2006,
they won the Chronicle of the Horse Eventing Horse of the Year
title, Eventing Horseman of the Year title, and the USEA Lady Rider
of the Year title.
At the
2009 Rolex
Kentucky CCI****, Pogi was officially retired in a touching ceremony. In addition to Amy
and Greg, Mark Hart (co-owner) and Allyson Green (long-time groom)
were in attendance to celebrate the incredible career of this very
special horse.

 Leyland
is a 16.2h 2000 bay Thoroughbred gelding owned by Elizabeth Nicholson of
Michigan. Leyland has personality to spare and is affectionately known
as "Trouble Tryon" at home.
In 2006, he won his first one-star at Poplar Place and moved up the
levels showing all the right instincts. In 2008, he won the Jersey
Fresh CCI*** and
took home the Jack LeGoff
Trophy in the Advanced division
at
the American Eventing Championships. In 2009, he debuted at the
four-star level at Rolex, finishing in 13th place.

Leroi is the newest addition to Amy's barn. He's an off-the-track
2006 16.2h dark bay Thoroughbred gelding. 
Poggio
II
is a 16h 1992 bay WA-bred Thoroughbred gelding (Polynesian Flyer x
Waves Club). He had a
short career on the race track and as a trail horse horse in the Cascade
Mountains before a friend of Amy's, Janet Von Pressentin, discovered him.
In 1999, Pogi competed for the United States in the Pan American Games in
Canada, and in 2002 his cross-country ride
in very wet conditions at the Rolex CCI**** brought him not only the 3rd place ribbon, but also the award
for the “Best Conditioned Horse”.
Devon
is a 16.2h, 2000 dark bay Thoroughbred gelding, a true gentleman and one of the sweetest horses you will
ever meet. He has an incredible mind, is a lovely mover, and can
jump a house.
He finished out
his first upper level season in 2006 with a 2nd place at the Galway Downs CCI* (CA). In
the spring of 2007 he placed 5th at the Red Hills CIC**. In the fall
of 2008 he capped the year off with a win at the Fair Hill CCI***.
Amy and Devon's last competition together was Galway Downs HT in Feb
2011.
