Trakehner mare - older but sound tight tendons, and up for anything, any day of the week! Loves children and a great match for a bold little rider. Impeccable Trakehner breeding for event/jumpers. She is from Hilda Gurney's program out of a full sister to Leonidas PgE (Int'l GP dressage horse) and by Onassis PgE (sire of Tatendrang). When I purchased this mare for breeding 9 years ago she had been competing in jumpers in CA and won a Horse of the Year award with the American Trakehner Association in 2011. I then got her Mare Performance Test done (she is an "Exceptional Mare" with ATA). All A's on her vet cards at AERC Endurance novice rides. We also had a lot of fun at a XC clinic with Andreas Dibowski (German olympian). Andreas thought she was a young 5 year old! She completed over 50 miles of tough terrain in the Appalachia over 2 days. She was sound, fit, and ready to go the next day. Was in collegiate IEA program the last 2 years until 6-30-23, but sadly the program is downsizing so she is looking for her next adventure. My farm is set up for breeding and she bored to tears doing nothing.
She has excellent athleticism and flexibility. Very uphill in her gaits and conformation. The best hock action and sure footedness I've ever ridden - can get herself out of anything. She is very forward and alert but also very manageable, kind-hearted and honest. Hops on the trailer and ready for adventure. She much prefers to be ridden versus hanging around. She is the one mare that I just LOVE to ride but I have young horses to start for the next 5 years, so looking for a fun-loving rider for her so she doesn't have to stare at me from her pasture, wanting to go DO something!
She has also been used in intermediate hunter lessons and packed over a small course without issue. Was loved by a very competent junior for a lease. But best for riders not intimidated by a more forward and sensitive horse. She is sound, goes barefoot or shod, no maintenance. She's a tough, reliable riding horse!
Fantastic homes with references please. I'm advocating for her next phase the best I can!
