Special Premium Shoshone

Shoshone was named premium at the GOV inspection as a foal, then became a Special Premium Candidate at her mare inspection and mare performance test. Now a Special Premium Mare after the birth of Premium foal Qhromatic in 2014.

She was the third placed mare overall in her Mare Performance Test in 2012, and won the high score free jumping. She was also placed into the main mare book, receiving the Special Premium title because of her very good inspection scores and MPT scores. Now back under saddle.

She received an 8 for her free jumping, and an 8 for breed and sex type. She was originally going to be my replacement for her dam, Glimmer, but I have just too many broodmares. My loss is your gain!
Shoshone's sire, Shakespeare RSF is not only proving himself under saddle, he has been our top producer of Premium foals and super riding horses. Shakespeare RSF is sired by Sandro Hit. I know the word on the streets is that Sandro Hit offspring can be hot in their temperament, but we have found that is far from the case with Shakespeare and his offspring. Shakespeare is just 12 years old. He was competed this year at the Intermediare II level ridden by Marcus Orlob, winning all three classes entered so far at Global Dressage in Wellington, FL with scores ranging from 74% to 77%. He is schooling all of the Grand Prix movements. For a breeding stallion, this is quite a feat- it takes a superior minded individual to accomplish this! In addition to his performance career, Shakespeare RSF has sired 3 licensed stallions, 45 Premium foals, 15 Foals of Distinction, and top winners at Hanoverian inspections and breed shows.
Shoshone has been back under saddle about 8 months now and she is making such rapid progress in her training, I can't keep up with updated videos. She is a big bodied mare with a forward thinking volunteer attitude. She never does anything bad and tries hard to please. She is past the young horse nonsense and wants to work. Compete her or breed her with her valuable bloodlines and produce record! Can be sold with a breeding to a Rolling Stone Farm stallion.
UPDATE:
Shoshone was taken to a local dressage schooling show on August 27, 2016. It was her first time off our farm (she had been broke at RSF) and her first time in a dressage ring. She was super well behaved in the warm up ring and super in the two tests she did. Here are the results: Training level test 1- first place 71.957% and training level test 2 third place (she was getting as little tired) 69.615%. I have video that I will try and get up on YouTube in the next few days.

Rolling Stone Farm

Warmblood breeder for 44 years. Owner of large Oldenburg (GOV) and Hanoverian breeding farm in eastern PA. Young, well started dressage horses and occasional hunter prospects always available. USDF Bronze, Silver, Gold, Sapphire, Ruby and Platinum Breeder of Distinction. I have produced 39 Elite Mares and Elite Mare Candidates, and 3 State Premium Mares for the Hanoverian Society, and 32 Special Premium mares and 17 Verbands Premium mares, 191 Premium Foals and 48 Foals of Distinction for the German Oldenburg Verband. I have produced 9 licensed stallions, including the fully licensed and approved stallion named Shakespeare RSF (winner of the 2009 70 day stallion test), a licensed stallion named Somer Hit, 3 licensed stallions in 2012 (one from the first foal crop of Shakespeare RSF- Shotgun, also Dheputy and a stallion in Germany), Fhitzgerald and Sir James (both imported from Germany and successfully completed the 70 day stallion test here in the US), another licensed stallion in 2014 named Shavane- the second licensed Shakespeare RSF son who is out of homebred EM Rheporter (Royal Prince/Weltmeyer). In 2015 another Shakespeare son was licensed- Shortstop, who was Grand Champion at a USDF breed show in 2015. I have bred four top 6 FEI Young Horse National Champions and multiple HOY winners in hand and in dressage, and four winners of the Young Hunters Under Saddle at Hunter Devon. We stand Shakespeare RSF (Sandro Hit/Arrian). I estimate I have bred about 450 foals to date, and I also sell young stock and up to 20-25 riding horses a year. Some of my horses are fourth and fifth generation from my own breeding program. I started out in hunters and jumpers and then rode dressage up to the PSG level, not competing much due to family and farm commitments. I finally received her USDF Bronze and Silver medals in 2018. My homebred Hanoverians and Oldenburgs have been top ten in national dressage rankings and have won many under saddle and in hand classes at many shows such as Dressage at Devon (Grand Champion 2011 and Reserve Grand Champion 2021), NEDA (Grand Champion 2021 and 2022) and the hunter show at Devon. I have produced numerous champions and reserve champions at many in hand shows and has been in the top 8 ranking for USDF Dressage Breeder of the Year since 2013, leading that category in 2020 and 2022. I was the 2016 and 2018 USDF Dressage Sport Horse Breeding Breeder of the Year and have been in the top 16 since 2013. I have been the USEF Dressage Breeder of the Year every year 2014-2023 and was 2nd in that category from 2011-2013 and in 2022. In 2021 I was also the USEF Dressage Breeding Breeder of the Year and was in the top 4 for the USEF Dressage Sport Horse Breeder of the Year 2013- 2022. My greatest pleasure has been breeding suitable horses for the amateur market in the disciplines of dressage or hunter with an emphasis on rideability and movement.
