Judges

Jim has been a Morgan enthusiast since his youth. His parents bought three Morgans that were not broke when he was about eight years old and put them in training with Frank Pancho Kibbee.  Jim started taking lessons with Anne Speck and had horses in training with Rob Tanner. He has been involved with horses ever since. Jim and his wife own Cherry Stables in Vista, CA and  have a nice string of show horses. He really enjoys judging and has judged many major horse shows across the country.
