Charlie Hutton from Hilldale Farm talks about the move from Tennessee to Kentucky



A packed house greeted Dr. Charlie Hutton here Wednesday when he talked to local residents about the factors that led him to relocate his quarterhorse operation to Caldwell County.
~
Hutton, who entered the horse business after teaching at the university level for 15 years, and his wife Tammye rely solely on the Hilldale Farm operation for their livelihood.

“We have no other income — everything we earn comes from our horses,” he told a crowd of about 45 people. “We are different from most horse operations because we are not only breeders, but trainers, too.”

And the business objective is simple — “we must raise the best quarterhorses possible.”
~
Hilldale Farm gained national prominence in 1999 when Hutton rode to two all-time records on Nu Chex To Cash, becoming the American Quarterhorse Association’s all-time leading open reining point earner, and Nu Chex To Cash became the only horse to ever earn national high point championships in reining and working cowhorse in the same year.



Nu Chex To Cash is one of eight living studs who have sired winnings over $1 million in reining competition. Total earnings of its offspring are now at $1.3 million.

Read the entire article in the Times Leader newspaper from Princeton, Kentucky.

The Weasel, The Witch and Ward

Here are three beautiful horses that we nicknamed "The Weasel", "The Witch" and the little guy is now called "Ward". The nicknames come from their personalities and we didn't plan on calling them these names but it just happened. We were figuring out what to call the little guy and since we have the weasel and the witch already it just felt like a C.S. Lewis book title. Hence the little guy being called Ward, as in wardrobe.
Ward, the Weasel and the Witch
The Weasel- She is so cool but a little bit of a sneak and thus the weasel.


Ward and his mom, the Witch. She can be kinda ornery and wants to show the Weasel who is the boss sometimes and thus she became known as the witch.

He is the Youngest Member of the Family
