Castleton Farm is a small breeding farm
dedicated to producing high quality
warmblood horses with our greatest emphasis
on the Selle Francais.
Our breeding program strives to create sound
horses both mentally and physically. We look
for correct conformation in
addition to exceptional bloodlines and
performance records for both our mares and
stallions.
We believe that
foals belong outside running and playing in
order to develop both sound minds and
bodies. However, because our foals are bred
to be athletes, daily handling and exposure
to different environments enables us to
ensure a cooperative attitude and an
outgoing personality.
Our philosophy
regarding horses comes from our
bloodlines as well. We were
both raised with horses. We both
competed in the Hunter/Jumper rings,
foxhunted and John played Polo.
We currently enjoy competing our
young horses in hand and riding when
we have time. We also have a
long family history of breeding,
training and competing.

Tracey’s
grandfather was in the cavalry and
was a horse trainer. Both her
grandparents foxhunted on the East
coast and brought Tracey’s mother
along riding.
John’s father and mother both
trained and competed horses into
their 70’s.
We are hoping to continue this legacy by
raising outstanding warmbloods for the
future.
