We have an amazing team that is described by Bob and Bonnie, the owners of Majestic View Farms, as a family. Our team's dedication, hard work, and love for the horses is what allows the farm to continue year after year. They are the backbone of the farm.
We would like to thank our amazing veterinarian, Dr. Jake Kiefer and our blacksmith, Ray Galluscio. We would also like to thank our clients, both new and old, that have trusted us with the care of their horses - from their broodmares, stallions, foals, yearlings, and racehorses.
The 2024 foaling, breeding, and sales seasons are in the books, so here is to a safe and successful 2025 season!
Jaime Franco Martin
Farm Manager
Jaime started working with racehorses as an exercise rider at Hollywood Park. After Hollywood Park, he moved to New York and started working at Pine Hollow Stud. Over the years, he has managed farms like Crevani Farm, Robert Perez' Haras Lucy Grace, Pine Bush Training Facility, and Dutchess Views Farm. Jaime has worked with both Standardbreds and Thoroughbreds for breeding, reproduction, foaling, and sales. He had the opportunity of working with numerous great horses like Niatross, Cupecoy's Joy, Bellamy Road, and NY leading sire Big Brown. In August of 2016, Jaime joined Majestic View Farms International as our farm manager.
Beth Sickler
Assistant Farm Manager
In 2014, Beth graduated from Chris McCarron's North American Racing Academy with an A.S. in Equine Studies. While attending the academy, she learned how to exercise racehorses, worked at both the Fasig-Tipton and Keeneland sales, and the Hall of Champions at the Kentucky Horse Park, working with great horses like Cigar, Da Hoss, Staying Together, Funny Cide, Go For Gin, and Western Dreamer. Following a starting gate accident, her focus shifted from becoming a jockey to working on the farms. Upon graduation, she returned home to New York and started working at Dutchess Views Farm. For two years, she worked in the office learning the business side of breeding farms and worked alongside the then farm manager, Jaime Martin. He taught her everything from vaccines and medications, working with the foals, reproduction, sales prep, foaling and breeding and handling stallions like Bellamy Road and Big Brown. In February 2016, she joined Majestic View Farms Intl. and does everything from the barn to the office. In December 2024, she graduated Summa Cum Laude from Midway University with a Bachelor's in Science in Equine Business and Sales.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
