Team Belle

The Belles are young equestrians forming their futures in a positive and productive way. They represent themselves with class and dignity and are leaders in both the barn and the classroom. They are always learning proper horsemanship and enjoy helping others. The girls not only conduct themselves with exemplary sportsmanship at horse shows, but also maintain good grades in school. It is our hope that the Belle program will help these girls become leaders, who work hard and carry themselves with confidence and kindness while having FUN!

Lilly is 11 years old from Colts Neck, New Jersey. She currently rides with Carly Jeanne Hartdorn, owner of Winward Equestrian, who she has been riding with since she started just before she turned 3. Lilly has 2 ponies, her small jumper and 3-ring pony, Pea Pod (Peas) and four year old Banana Pancakes (Pancakes or Baby Banana). Lilly has been showing Peas in the Small Pony Jumpers for the last 2 years, and went to the 2025 Pony Jumper Championships, She has qualified again for 2026 and can't wait to turn and burn! Over the last year, she has also been bringing along Pancakes, and has done nearly all of the riding herself. They've gone to their first few shows and are hoping to go to the 2026 Young Pony Hunter Championships. Lilly doesn't just love riding and being around ponies, she also loves writing about them! A short story she wrote about riding her old pony Latte has been published on The Plaid Horse and a fictional story that she wrote came in 3rd place in a contest for Young Rider Magazine, and can be found on their website. She's even working with a very popular equestrian publisher as a "junior intern" this summer. In addition to riding successfully at the Pony Jumper Championships, and bringing along her baby, Lilly has big goals to start catch riding more to help put "kid miles" on other green ponies or those that may be a tougher ride for their littles. When she's not riding, writing, or reading, she can be found jumping over anything she can find, with her favorite hobby horses or drawing and being crafty! Her favorite Belle and Bow items are the fun sun shirts, and all of the ponies' tack, especially Pea Pod's pink padded halter. She's loving some of the new solids that have just come out and is always looking to see what's new!
