Our Mission

Sandy Carpenter/Rose has dedicated over 30 years to training horses and riders to perform in many facets of the horse world.  She has trained many National and Regional Champion show horses in Western and English Pleasure, Hunter Pleasure, Park Horse, Driving, and Trail.  Sandy has also trained National Champion Junior Riders in Saddleseat Equitation and Stockseat Equitation.  She has judged open shows, 4-H shows, miniatures, and Arabian horses in shows all over the United States.

Our Goal

The main goal for horse training at Victory Hill Training Center is to produce horses that can carry their riders in the show ring, on the trail, on a working cattle ranch, or at a Versatility Ranch Horse Competition in the safest and most pleasurable manner.

At Victory Hill, you will receive  instruction on the proper way to handle and ride your horse. Situations which were once stressful will become relaxed and controlled, especially with problem horses.  Sandy’s knowledge of horses, horse health, care of horses and tack is extensive and will benefit any individual that is willing to listen and learn.

Apprenticeship Program

An excellent Apprenticeship program is available for trainers and individuals to increase their knowledge and skills.  We are now taking applications for the 2007 sessions.

Location

Victory Hill Training Center is situated on the banks of the “Little Arkansas” River in the high mountain valley of Salida, Colorado. The center features indoor and outdoor arenas, large and small round pens, cattle pen, course obstacles (including streams & rivers), and accommodations for boarding over 20 horses.

I graduated from California State Polytechnic College in Pomona, Ca. with a degree in Business Administration.  I spent all of my free time at the Kellogg Arabian Horse Unit at the college working with their trainers and horses.  At the age of 18, I was the youngest rider to win the Pacific Coast English Pleasure Championship for the college and this was the beginning of my training and showing of horses.  I have trained all breeds of horses and have learned from many great trainers.

I am currently a member a AQHA and the Eastern Plains Reining Horse Association.
