As of October we no longer have any horses for sale.
November 25
We always like it when people write us about horses they bought from us. This is what Annie Baird, owner of Willow wrote us.
"You and the rest of your family would have been very proud today at the Stephen Clarke clinic. He saw Willow and Voldemort, and was really impressed with both of them. On Voldemort: "you better hide him away from the Germans, or they will want to snap him up". On Willow: " this horse was born to do piaffe/passage... and canter pirouettes." Just wanted to let you know what stars your horses have been today!"
Thank you Annie and congratulations to you for doing so well with Willow. We are always pleased when people write us, a few weeks ago I got a phone call from a trainer in Florida who had one of Rasputins babies in her barn. She figured this horse was a super horse to train. She phoned me because she wanted to tell me she now has a second Rasputin baby in her barn and this one has the same temperament and talent and work ethic as the other Rasputin baby, so she just wanted to complimment us on the excellent horses we bred. Stuff like that makes my day!
Congratulations to Adelinde Cornelissen!
Adelinde was an exchange student at our farm a few years ago. She was here for one year on a young farmer exvchange from Holland. Many of our students will remember her.
Adelinde is presently ranked # 1 in the world for dressage. A fantastic achievement but one we are not surprised by. Adelinde showed her talents when she worked here, and she trained both Icarius and Michelangelo. Both horses were sold to young riders, one in Canada and one in the USA. Both horses did very well for their new owners and gave them a chance to ride in the Young Rider Competitions.
Other horses worked by Adelinde were Mercredian, Larissa, Loretta and Najade.
We are very proud of Adelinde and wish her many, many more successes in her equestrian career.
Adelinde's Website
The Magazine Dressage Daily had a writeup about the Dressage at Waterloo Spring Classic in Grass Lake, Michigan.
It was very nice to see two of the horses we bred in this article.
Winchester by Gribaldi and out of Pirona, ridden by Sarah Pfaff made their showing debut at Training Level and gained Junior Reserve Champion;
Voldemort by Rasputin and out of Rowena, owned and ridden by Andrea Bangham, earned the reserve Prix St George Champion Award. This was their first time competing at the Prix St. George level.
Congratulations to both
