Touring the Bluegrass - Leatherwood Stud



On Saturday April 19, Saddle Horse Report toured Leatherwood Stud in Paris, Kentucky to promote the new breeders’ tools at SaddleHorseReport.com. Leatherwood is a full-service reproduction facility standing such stallions as Leatherwood’s Starlight, I’m A New Yorker, A Grand Affair, Royal Revival, Kalarama’s All Time High, Mountainview’s Heir To Fortune, and Nureyev. Ann Tierney Smith is the owner of the farm, while Fred Sarver manages the operation and Scott Perrelli serves as trainer.

Here are a few of the pictures from the picturesque Leatherwood Stud.
