Annie had always wanted to develop a breeding program that allowed youngsters to have a positive start in life. Setters’ Run Farm was developed as a peaceful haven where her broodmares and foals could grow up. This environment allows the youngsters to have a quality start in life, where they are raised with patient and progressive training, allowing them to establish positive, harmonious relationships with both trainers and riders. This philosophy has proven to be successful, as Setters’ Run Farm homebreds have turned out to be trusting and willing partners with their respected new owners and riders. Annie believes that homebred horses offer quality and unique potential as they grow into competitive sport horses. Setters’ Run Farm is proud to be able to offer their homebreds for sale knowing they have been given the best opportunity to succeed.
One of the biggest rewards of the Setters’ Run breeding program for Annie is being able to watch the youngsters grow up. It is a pleasure for her to see them learn and progress successfully in their training with their new riders, much in part due to the confidence they gained at Setters’ Run Farm. She looks forward to watching the Setters’ Run Farm graduates out competing, and eventually, see to them cheering them on at the top level of equestrian sport.
