Infinity Stables is owned and operated by Jimmy and Helen Robertson. With numerous world's championship and national championship titles to the stable's credit, one might assume that it's a stable where the only business is winning. While we at Infinity Stables are completely committed to the development and success of each Saddlebred or roadster horse or pony in our experienced care, we're just as convinced that participation with horses should be ... well, fun. 
From investors who focus on marketing young horses and owners who are lifelong equine enthusiasts, to juvenile exhibitors and adults learning to ride, drive, and show, Infinity's clients find a comfortable, family-friendly atmosphere that makes participating with horses competitive but enjoyable. Our goal is a healthy, happy horse that enjoys its job, and clients -- friends -- who enjoy the experience. Our commitment to the welfare of our young exhibitors is an important one to us; we believe their involvement with horses should help prepare them for life, teach them good sportsmanship and the reward of setting and reaching goals, and be an activity the entire family can enjoy.
Today's Infinity Stables team is now preparing horses for and instructing second-generation riders, the sons and daughters of riders whom Jimmy coached to successful juvenile careers.
Jimmy Robertson -- husband of Helen, father of Jennifer Robertson and Krissy Robertson, brother of world-famous equine auctioneer Walt Robertson, and the son of legendary Hall Of Famer Jim B. Robertson -- has been turning out champions for over 30 years. As manager and trainer at Infinity, Jimmy is known for producing correct riders and drivers, champion Hackney and harness ponies, top roadster ponies and horses, and winning American Saddlebreds. His notable winners include CHOur Golden Duchess, his Lexington Junior League winner of the Five Gaited Juvenile Exhibitor Championship, who later went on to become two-time Five Gaited World's Grand Champion with trainer Merrill Murray aboard. Jimmy has guided his young drivers to claim Junior Exhibitor Road Pony World's Championship honors with Speed Limit, What Luck, and Tijuana Souvenir. Saddleseat equitation stars under his tutelage include Malissa Shirkey, Virginia Cable, Carol Reams, Melissa Shane, and Sarah Cronan.
Having adjudicated at horse shows across the United States and in South Africa, Bermuda, and Canada, Jimmy is a United States Equestrian Federation-licensed 'R' judge in American Saddlebred, Saddleseat Equitation, Hackney/Harness, and Roadster disciplines. Known as a tireless promotor of his chosen equine breeds, he has served the United Professional Horseman's Association (UPHA) as president in 1990-91 and 2002-03. He has been honored by his peers with the UPHA Richard E. Lavery Professional Horseman's Award and the American Saddlebred Horse Association's C.J. Cronan Sportsmanship Award in 2000, and the UPHA Helen Crabtree Equitation Instructor Of The Year Award in 1997. His exhibitors, however, would probably report that one of Jimmy's greatest strengths is his ability to communicate clearly with his students while good-naturedly challenging them toward enhanced performance levels.
Helen Robertson, who balances roles as instructor and trainer, has been riding since she was 2, and training professionally since turning 18. Acquiring experience with John Biggins and Frank McConnell before arriving to work for Jimmy at Rock Creek Riding Club in 1989, Helen's energy and incomparable instruction have resulted in numerous titles for her riders: Melissa Shane, Pleasure Equitation Medallion Champion and Lexington Junior League Horse Show Equitation Champion; Sarah Cronan, Kentucky State Fair World's Championship Horse Show Senior Saddleseat Equitation World's Grand Champion and Lexington Junior League Horse Show Senior Equitation Champion; Julie Spinnato, Pleasure Medallion Champion and UPHA Pleasure Challenge Cup Reserve Champion; Annie Reed, UPHA Pleasure Challenge Cup Champion; Katie Raque, winner of the Five Gaited Open class at the National Horse Show held in Madison Square Garden; Caroline Kamer, two-time World's Champion in the Three Gaited Pleasure for Juvenile Exhibitors division; and Joel Dorignac, Reserve Saddleseat Equitation Champion at the Lexington Junior League Horse Show, Kentucky State Fair World's Championship Horse Show Reserve World's Champion Saddleseat Equitation Rider for 15 year olds, and Good Hands champion at Lexington Junior League Horse Show. The daughter of the late Patricia Close, herself a professional horsewoman, Helen is known for her inspiring win aboard Prolific Memories in the Five Gaited Grand Championship during the last year Saddlebreds were shown at the National Horse Show in New York's Madison Square Garden. In 2005, Helen piloted the Diamond Five Farms-owned Cadillac Spirit to the Kentucky County Fair Three Gaited Grand Championship win during the World's Championship Horse Show. Helen serves on the UPHA Equitation Committee.
Travis Higgins — We welcome aboard this talented, young assistant trainer whose impressive work ethic and responsible nature fit nicely with our Infinity program. Hailing from Ft. Wayne, Indiana, Travis has extensive experience with Morgan horses at his family's stable. He rode Fire And Brimstone to the 2001 Reserve National Champion title for 14 - 17 age youths in the English Pleasure division, and in '96, claimed a Reserve National Championship with his Yellow Iris Surprise, often winning in Western, English Pleasure, and Classic as a 13-and-under rider. Riding since he was 3, the only child of Jim & Vicki Higgins enjoys farming, restoring antique tractors, and fishing in his free time.
Keen Sullivan — We're pleased that Keen chose to return to Infinity Stables after her 2006 graduation from William Woods University, with a bachelor's of science degree in Equestrian Science. A native of Whitesboro, New York, Keen has enjoyed working with horses much of her life, and for one year, rode jumpers in Limerick City, Ireland. A former intern at Infinity, she is now assistant trainer and a welcome addition to our staff.
The Infinity Stables crew is supported by several capable caretakers, all of whom are dedicated to meeting uncompromised standards for the welfare of each horse entrusted to us.
