We
offer only horses with proven pedigrees. We focus on good
minds and bodies with breeding to match. Each year we
buy and sell only a few horses so we can focus our attention
on those few horses. We don't believe in owning 25 horses
and not having a personal relationship with any of them.
We
offer well bred show and prospects
for sale. Our horses are fit and well conditioned. They
are worked 5-6 days per week, and all are brushed on a
daily basis. We use a hot walker and treadmill to assist
in our conditioning programs. We believe even the best
fit athlete requires at least 1-2 days off per week to
keep their mind fresh.
We
specialize in Quarter and Paint prospects. If we do not
have what you are looking for, we will help you find it!
We try our hardest to offer high quality horses at affordable
prices.
Synergy
Stables, Inc. has recently relocated from Appling, GA
to Beech Island, SC. A move was required to properly serve
our equine clients on a larger scale. The Beech Island
property features; 17 stalls, 15 acres, a 110' X 140'
sand outdoor arena with lights, a hot walker, a round
pen, pastures with shed row shelter, individual turn out
lots, and much more!
The
property was formerly called Rose Hill Plantation for
the Roses that formed a heart shape in the front yard.
Built in 1862, the homes builder is also famously known
for his design and construction of Redcliffe Plantation
once occupied by the governor of South Carolina just out
side the town of Jackson. The homes owners moved in the
day the Union Army fired on Ft. Sumter during the Civil
War. The original barn on the property still exists. It
was built prior to the plantation home and still holds
6 stalls for outside mares. The third floor of the home
still shows many signatures from family friends, Confederate
solider's and others on the walls. The facility was purchased
from C.D. Giacobone in July 2003 and was the farm he used
to train some of the nation's top barrel horses.
A
main focus of Synergy Stables is to promote our stallion,
Zippy Zevi Dasher. He is
a son of leading race and barrel futurity/derby sire,
Dash Ta Fame. With an exceptionally great 2003 breeding
season - over 100 mares booked, we are very anxious about
the future and how "Z" will impact our industry.
2004 is looking to be as bright a year as 2003. "Z"
is currently with Synergy Stables, Inc. partner and leading
trainer, Lance Graves. He is entered in the Quarter horse
Congress in both senior barrel racing & pole bending.
Be sure to look for him at an event in your area!
