Trainer

"In my opinion Carleton is a brilliant horseman as well as being one my favorite people. He is very bright; thinks outside the box and his accomplishments as a rider and trainer certainly speak for themselves."
  -- Rick Fancher

"Carleton's understanding of the horse as an animal and how to get into the horse's mind and approach riding as a way for the two of you to work as one makes him able to tackle difficult horses that many people would not be able to work with. This enables him take a whole different approach to getting them to perform that most other trainers would not necessarily be able to do."

"He is very much a perfectionist so his attention to detail, every excruciating detail, is a quest for a certain level of performance that is unique to Carleton ."
  -- Lesley Bulechek

"I rode with Carleton for a lot of years. We had some wonderful horses and he is a terrific horseman."
  -- Peggy (Margaret) Omeara

"Having known Carleton for over 25 years, I can say he has produced some of the top hunters in the country. Not only has he bought, trained and sold them; he has trained them for customers."
  -- James Clapperton
