Cal Middleton, Performance Horse Trainer

Cal Middleton has quickly become a well known Performance Horse Trainer throughout the US

Cal Middleton grew up in Smithville, Mo, and always enjoyed spending the summers at his grandparents farm in Ulman, Mo. It was there that he developed a passion, for not only horses, but the agricultural way of life

After college, he spent some time in the cattle business near Eldon, MO, and then moved north to create his business of horse training and riding lessons by opening a barn in Kearney, MO, that he was leasing.

His solid foundation in the unique understanding of the potential of a horse (and rider) is the direct result of time spent apprenticing with many of the greats in the performance horse arena.

Cal Middleton also worked as an assistant trainer for NRCHA Snaffle Bit Futurity Champion and NRCHA million dollar rider Corey Cushing of Scottsdale, AZ.  He continues to ride with the top trainers in the world in order to keep learning as much as he can.
