Trisha Dingle-Blackwell comes to Whitehaven with extensive experience in Dressage and Three Day Eventing. As a junior rider, Trisha competed at the CCN* level and qualified for the North American Young Riders Championships with two horses. At this time, she also competed through Second Level Dressage with a variety of mounts and at local hunter/jumper shows. She has experience riding Thoroughbred racehorses on the track, as well as managing the successful Thoroughbred breeding farm CAMDEN STUD for two years.

Trisha adapted to training Arabians quickly, and they are now her preferred breed.  She gained recognition in the Arabian show world with Whitehaven’s homebred stallion WH Bodacious, who she successfully competed in western pleasure, dressage, native costume, show hack, and sport horse in hand.  Trisha is now competing offspring of Bodacious in a variety of disciplines, as well as clients’ horses and other Whitehaven homebreds.  In 2001 a twist of fate found her trying endurance, winning a number of Top 10’s with the farm’s straight Egyptian gelding Desert Sword.  Trisha is now the exclusive endurance trainer for Valour Arabians of Smyrna, DE.  

Although she specializes in sport horse disciplines, Trisha is always eager to try something new.  She is currently training two of her own horses, Cinderella Story and Royal Pain WP, in reining, working cowhorse, and western pleasure.  And this fall she will be debuting in country English pleasure with Whitehaven’s Z Special T (her former endurance mount).

In a relatively brief career with Arabians and endurance horses, Trisha has had a variety of wins in all levels of competition.  Our clients, borders and students enjoy great success in the show ring, and have wonderful relationships with their horses under her tutelage.
