Spring 2004 Update!

Click to Enlarge Tally now resides in beautiful Anchorage, Alaska with her newClick to Enlarge owner Francine Reuters, and she has since given birth to a lovely filly by Routinier. 

 

 

Ultra FeinUltra Fein (aka A.J.) has officially left the nest and is now starting his career as a show horse.  We hear he’s been superb…he was ridden under saddle three days after being started with Roger Daly.  He’s always had a willing heart and a good mind. Our congratulations to Debbie Toffoli  and to our dear A.J. for finding such a loving home.

She has since given birth to anClick to Enlarge elegant filly by the name of Raven on May 1, 2004.  Cinni and Raven are now living happily in California at Webb Ranch with their new owner Summer Hensley. Raven is a beauty with four white socks, large star, stripe and snip!  This mare throws wonderful babies.

 

Fall Update!

 

Ultra FeinULTRA FEIN,aka,  A.J.,  made his horse show debut August 9 & 10, 2003 at Silver Hill Sporthorse in Austin,  Texas.  It was his first time away from home and his first show…and he all eyes and ears!  He could barely concentrate the first day – he had never seen so many other horses in one place.  He did well however, placing 3rd in his class, Colts of 2001, with a score of  77% from judge Peter Hansen who said of him “he’s harmoniously built, good push, and good reach .  A good riding sport type.” He came in 2nd on Sunday with judge Barbara Funk, who gave him a score of 67.7 %.  She said of him, “he’s a good modern type, has good low hocks and uses his body well”. He was a tired puppy by Sunday…but all said, it was a pretty good start to a show career.

 

Received this update from stallion owner, Charlotte Bredahl,  in September, 2003:

Windfall and his 4-year old son Windsor, were shown at the DASC Championship (Dressage Association of Southern California) and they won all 7 classes they entered.  Windfall won Open  Int.1,  PSG and Int. 1 Championship… and was High score of the show with a 76%.”    Congratulations to Charlotte and her talented horses!

 

Spring Update!

 

Vintage made her horse show debut April 10, 2003 at the Texas Dressage Classic held at Las Colinas Equestrian Center in Dallas, Texas. Despite a morning of chaos with trucks and trailers rolling by the ring…and her Reserve Champion Fillies of 2002 being a little scared by all the commotion…she finally relaxed enough to show her lovely gaits and placed second in her class -- the Fillies of 2002.  She became Reserve Champion Filly of 2002 with a score of  73.5 % from “R” judge, Mr. William Solyntjes, who said of her  “nice elastic trot, free shoulder and good ground coverage.”     We’re very proud of her for being so brave at her first horse show and first time away from home.

 

 

R Mercedes Premium YearlingR Mercedes made her horse show debut Friday, March 28, 2003 - and quite a debut it was. She won her first class - the Fillies of 2001 - where she was named Champion Filly. We are honored that she won with a score of 77.9 from a much respected judge, Mr. Peter Lert from California.

 

R Mercedes USDF Breeders Reseve ChampionThis qualified her to go in the Grand Championship class (which is for the champion and reserve champion fillies from each year, from 2000 through 2003). She took 2nd place and was named the Reserve Grand Champion Filly.

This qualified her to compete in the Young Horse Championships (which is for the champion and reserve champion from both the filly and the colt championships). Even though she was competing against some 3-year olds, she still won 3rd place.

She is now qualified to compete in the USDF Sport Horse Breeders Championship Finals (Southern Series) to be held in September in Houston. You go girl!

New Year's Update!

In 2002 Windfall was named American Hanoverian Society’s Horse of the Year at 4th level with a median score of 68.8%. .
