Carrie Meehan
Carrie is the founder and owner of Gold to Blue.
She started riding at the age of 6 and went on to compete internationally through the CCI 2* level. She then turned her focus to training and competing young horses and slowly realized she had an eye for picking out talent where others might not see it straightaway.

Glenn Farrell Walker
Glenn grew up immersed in horses on the family farm , Riverfield Stud . He served his time and learned his trade working for and riding in some of Irelands top yards . He always had a thirst for knowledge and improvement in all things equine.
5 yrs ago he made his way back to Co. Meath and took over the reins at Riverfield . Since coming home he has been lucky enough to have some international riders who he met on his journey trust him to break and give their young horses the vital early start to their competitive careers. In the summer Glenn Is asked to Judge show horses quite often which time permiting he loves, And in the winter Glenn hunts with the world renowned pack the Ballymacad Fox Hounds which he believes to be a fantastic schooling ground for young horses going forward to any discipline.
Glenn prides himself on taking extra time with horses , and this is so that he can pay extra attention to detail and not miss the "small things that horses try to say to us".
Glenn’s Motto: "Classical training never goes out of fashion."
