TRAINING

COMPLETE CONTROL IS AT YOUR FINGERTIPS with a horse trained by Esler Arabians. We leave nothing to chance. We specialize in starting youngsters properly and thoroughly with the goal of easy manageability and longevity. Esler Arabians turns out relaxed, collected, light-mouthed and light-sided horses that move in frame and are a pleasure to ride. We will either start your young horse or fine-tune or retrain your "not-so-behaved" campaigner. Esler Arabians has finished ALL young horses started on first 50s through the years including taking some on to finishing 2-day 100s, 3-day 150s and 5-day 250s. We are located in Granite Bay, CA, with direct access to Tevis and Folsom Lake trails with a covered arena for winter work. Visit our website at eslerarabians.net for training articles and call 916-652-8937 to reserve your spot!

WILL YOUR HORSE BE READY for the 2007 fall rides? Esler Arabians will make your next season the best ever. We can either start your young horse right, and take him through his first 50-mile ride, or fine-tune your "not-so-behaved" campaigner. I specialize in retraining out-of-control, half-crazy, scary-to-ride mounts and returning you easily-controlled, light-mouthed, comfortable, relaxed and maneuverable horses who are a pleasure, not a terror, to ride. All horses trained at Esler Arabians in the last 11 years have finished their first 50-mile rides under our guidance. In 2007, we have two Top Ten placings at 20 Mule Team 65. In 2006 we finished rides at Tevis Cup, Cuyama, American River 50, 2 days at Washoe, Wild West II, all 5 days at Shellbourne Station on the same horse, Swanton 75, Cold Springs 100 & 75. 2007 New Cuyama: 14 starts, 14 finishes. We are located in Granite Bay, California, with direct access to Tevis and Folsom Lake trails, with a covered arena for winter and finish work.
