My daughter and I have taken lessons and boarded our horses here for fourteen years. Nancy has…read moretaken Jayna from a three years old beginner leadline Academy rider to an accomplished show rider at Junior League. Nancy is an excellent instructor for any level of rider, whether your goal is to ride for show or pleasure. She always has a wide variety of horses suited to various disciplines. The facility offers indoor riding in inclement weather and about fifty acres for outdoor experiences. She is always personable and welcoming. Great place to ride! Check out her summer programs as well.

I came to Lexington for a month from California looking for a place that could help me learn how to…read more ride horses. I had no experience (well maybe the state fair when I was 5). I called Nancy at Brannon Stables and she was amazing. She took some time to understand what I was looking for before I made the drive to try out my first lesson. I arrived and and it was a great fit. She was patient, easy going and very good about correcting me (and understanding this was my first time on a horse). I started 4 weeks ago (from 0 experience) and today I can put the (english or western saddle on), start, trot, canter, turn (and most importantly stop). I highly recommend her.

Visiting Claiborne Farm was fun and educational. We did the walking tour with one of the handlers…read morewho gave us great knowledge about the Thoroughbred racing industry and some of the farm's famed horses such as Secretariat, Round Table, Mr. Prospector, and more. We had the chance to see some of the current stallions such as Silver State, Blame, and War Front. It was so cool to see some of these majestic stallions right in front of us and even pet/feed a few! We of course had to pay our visit to the cemetery and see some of the legends. It's very apparent that Claiborne Farm loves their horses and cares for them deeply. It's a beautiful piece of property as well.

Amazing tour, learned a lot and loved the horses! Absolutely beautiful farm! Highly recommend! Easy…read morewalking and worth the drive there.

I have never done a horse farm tour and I have lived in Lexington for a bit of my life. I would…read morehave to say this is a must! I learned so much about the horses life after the track and how breeding works. We did the tour of the stallions, they also offer a tour of the baby's and mamas. It just depends on which you want to do because they are about a hour long. Be prepared to walk and for the unpredictable weather as parts are outside. It was so cool, we met freight line and he let us pet him. The staff was so sweet and knowledgeable and had brochures for us to take home which was so cool! I think any horse enthusiasts or even if you just want to enjoy and be a tourist in your state this would be amazing.

We visited this area today to partake in the Lucky Leprechaun 5K put on by RaceRise. We only spent…read morea few minutes in their facility. Parts of it seemed a little dated, but it overall looked clean and well-kept (especially the gym and daycare). While running the 5K, the ground appeared well-kept. I did spot a rather hilarious looking concessions trailer, but it didn't seem out of place and did a good job of providing the kind of ambiance I would expect in rural Kentucky. Would run here again!

The facilities are great. I use the weight room and they have everything I need. Staff are…read morefriendly. However, there are a few continuing problems. 1. The weights in the weight room are never, ever, ever sorted into their correctly labeled spots (you can only blame other patrons up to a certain point--then you have to start asking why the staff aren't enforcing a sorting rule or sorting them themselves). 2. The wifi is spotty. 3. When equipment breaks, repairs take forever. One of the selectorized weight machines had a weight that stuck for months and months after I politely mentioned it to staff multiple times. 4. The men's bathroom by the weight room often has a very strong urine smell and the hinge on the stall door is not dependable. And handle on the sink in there has been broken for weeks. 5. The second hand on one of the wall clocks in the weight room is broken, and has been for a long time, which is frustrating if you want to time a lifting rest. (It's a small thing, but it's the kind of thing staff should handle without having to be asked by their customers. Plus, who wants to be "that guy" who asks them to fix their clock? I already asked once--now I'd rather use up my political capital asking about the wifi.) 6. Any time you have to do ANYTHING in the office, it takes forever. Reception and basic bookkeeping tasks move at a snail's pace. Again, all the staff are very nice, and overall things are not bad. However, there are some continual/recurring (and frustrating) problems that appear to be a lack of proper management.
