 Breeders of Top Quality Dutch Warmbloods | ||
 | ||
| Top Flight Farms is a private facility consisting of 53 acres conveniently located in the beautiful Texas Hill Country, northwest of Austin, near Leander and Cedar Park. The farm is just 1.5 miles from Lake Travis. | ||
The cool, metal Barnmaster barn consists of ten 12 x 12 stalls. Each
stall has a rear dutch door with a 20 ft paneled run off the back. Inside the
stalls are rubber mats and a fly spray system. The wood lined, 12 ft
center aisle is concrete with rubber mats, and a raised center aisle roof
overhead for better ventilation and cooling. There is also a locking tack room,
feed room, and outdoor washrack. | ||
Young horses at Top Flight Farms grow up in pastures 24 hrs a day, with a run-in shed for shelter and trees for shade. They enjoy the fresh air, plenty of exercise, and companionship that helps them grow up healthy and strong, both physically and mentally. | ||
Mature horses at Top Flight Farms are brought in at night, and turned
out all day (weather permitting) in small tree shaded pastures adjoining
the barn. They receive a grain mix twice a day, and free
choice coastal round bale hay in their turnout pasture. | ||
The large lighted arena was built to USDF (United States Dressage Federation)
standards. It has excellent sand and rubber footing and a two rail cedar
perimeter fence. A full set of decorative stadium jumps, including rails,
panels, gates, and boxes, is available for use. | ||
Top Flight Farms also has a cross country jumping course, which is unique
to the Austin area. Levels of jumps are from "Green As Grass" (2 ft or less),
to Training level (up to 3'3"). This course winds up and down hills, through
woods, across open meadow, over ditches and a creek. Types of jumps include
tree trunks, cedar rails, tires, railroad ties, hay bales, brush jumps, a
rock wall, stump jumps and more. | ||
Beautiful trail riding is another unique feature at Top Flight Farms. A
relaxing trail ride is a much needed break from arena work for both horse and
rider. It is an important part of training for all horses, especially the
young and/or green horse. The trail ride may continue
off the property for a longer trail ride down to Lake Travis for a picnic and
swim. The lake is only about 1 1/2 miles from Top Flight Farms and makes for
an enjoyable outing. | ||
