Clover Creek Dressage - DressageDaily

Reese Koffler-Stanfield

FEI Dressage Rider, USDF Certified Instructor/Trainer through Fourth Level

Reese Koffler-Stanfield is not one to sit idle. She has been busy starting her new farm in an ideal location, just minutes from the Kentucky Horse Park, host of the 2010 Alltech/FEI World Equestrian Games. With grand plans for her business and already successful career, Reese is a popular dressage instructor in her region. In addition to her continued accomplishments on horseback she is now a certified equine appraiser, is working on her USDF “L” learner judge license, and has a new puppy and new colt out of her Grand Prix mare, Jamaica.

Just 10 minutes from the Kentucky Horse Park in Georgetown, Kentucky, Clover Creek Dressage is a gorgeous piece of land that Reese, her horses, staff and clients will call home starting in 2009.  With the 2010 FEI World Equestrian Games in the not-so-distant future, there isn’t a better time for Reese to relocate, and there certainly isn’t a better place.

Clover Creek, named by Reese’s husband Travis after he found five four-leaf-clovers on the property, will be home to the broodmares and youngsters starting in the fall of 2008.  The farm consists of 20 acres of prime Kentucky bluegrass.  "We are really looking forward to it," says Reese about the creation and start of her new farm.  She says it will be a work in progress just as Maplecrest Farm was for her family when mother Margee started it years ago.  Reese's parents will be selling their farm so her father can enjoy more golf and her mother can focus on her passion for creating art.

Although the land doesn't currently have the same amenities that Maplecrest Farm does, Reese's plans for the property and the business are top-of-mind.  The future will bring a nine-stall barn with a barn apartment and an indoor arena so there's no more teaching in the elements!
