Nicker Notes and News
Duke Principe, Local Horse Awarded National Championship
Lisa Otto, owner of NickerDoodles, is also the proud owner of 5-year-old Duke Principe who claimed the American Hanoverian Society’s champion in the 3'3" Pregreen Division.
'Duke' was bred, raised and trained in the Tryon area winning many coveted honors along the way to this championship with trainer Holli Adams of Still Creek Farm in Columbus, N.C. in the irons. Lisa Otto and the breeder Maryanna Haymon of Marydell Farms in Tryon who owns the stallion Don Principe, attended the Jan 2012 awards banquet in Palm Beach, FL.
"Holli Adams has exclusively ridden and shown Duke dedicating not only her professional talent, but also her time bringing along this amazing young horse for us. Her core values and belief in flatwork, the horse's fitness, conditioning, and the consistency in his training program provided the perfect backdrop for his qualifying as the 2011 3'3" Pregreen Division Champion" said Lisa Otto. Otto and Adams are looking forward to seeing what the future will hold for him next in the show ring.
Duke surely credits much of his achievement to getting plenty of NickerDoodles!

Winner of the TR&HC Hunter Derby sponsored by NickerDoodles, all natural horse treats
Our congratulations to the TR&HC Hunter Derby winner "Beckett", with Megan Young in the irons and owned by Allison Mills! The pair bested a field of 28 which was the largest class at the June horse show. The initial round by Young on Beckett was the classic round over jumps that more resembled fences typically found in hunt country such as coops, logs, and other natural obstacles. The Derby with its jumps ranging from 3 feet to 4 feet in height consisted of two rounds with each round counting 50% of the total score, but only the top 12 scoring entries by the judges returning for the second handy hunter round. Beckett and Young after the two rounds clenched the 1st place $300.00 win. Photo is courtesy of Flashpoint Photography.
