The Facility
Last Laugh Farm is a private 20-acre sporthorse breeding facility located near Penn National Race Course outside of Harrisburg, Pa.
We are crossing highly-regarded European warmblood stallions with select Thoroughbred mares to produce prospects for hunters, jumpers, dressage and eventing.
We are in need of someone with professional-level grooming, barn management and hunter/jumper/eventing experience to help start, develop and assist in selling our young sporthorse prospects. Show ring experience is a requirement.
The barn consists of 10 stalls, tack room & wash stall, with attached living quarters. There is an outdoor riding ring and cross-country course and eight fenced paddocks.
