"Sydney"

Imported FEI level Oldenburg mare by Sion.   13 year old, 17 hands, dark, dark brown, beautiful and kind. 

This is a wonderful opportunity to purchase this imposing mare who is ready to canter down the "big ring" centerline.  Sydney will show PSG this year, and is schooling the upper FEI level movements.  She has been ridden by a junior with scores in the high 60's and 70's!!  The judges love her movement and her correct way of going.   

Sydney will suit a competant amateur, a young rider, or even a professional rider.  She has had more than one lovely foal in Europe. 

Sydney was fantastic at the recent Dressage at Del Mar competition at Showpark.  I showed her at 4th level where she got 65%.  The next day I showed her at 3rd level.  I had one of my best tests ever.  It was a load of fun, she was forward, supple and responsive.  She got 2nd place and 67%.  The judges in both tests loved her!

"Marius"

Six year old 16.1 hand bright Bay Holsteiner gelding.  Marius is solid in his First level work, and has begun Second level exercises including shoulder-in, counter canter and walk canter transitions.  His canter work is for a 10.  He shows an expressive medium trot, and easy lateral work.  He has a huge walk.  Marius has an exceptionally powerful hind leg but he remains very comfortable to ride.  He has a brave, bold personality and is fun and confident on trails.  A super talent in a reasonable and rideable package. 

MARIUS HAS BEGUN HIS CHANGES!!  NOT SOLID YET BUT VERY RELAXED AND VERY EXPRESSIVE!!  He is also showing an international calibre PASSAGE!  This is a super talent! 

Marius showed at Dressage at Del Mar.  In his first competition ever he won both of his Training level test 4.  The first day he got 75.6% and the second day, a little fatigued but still very obedient, he got 72%.

His score of 75.6% was impressive enough to win the Overall High Score for the whole competition!! 

Significant price available on application

Melodie has three super gaits, and is that wonderful combination of a forward thinking horse that is not spooky or hot. 

Mel is showing 2nd level, with scores of 66%, and is schooling the half pass, collection for and schooling the 1/4 pirouettes.  She has her changes and has started schooling the tempi changes.  She will be ready to show 3rd/4th level at the end of this year beginning of next.  Melodie has qualified for CDS/USDF Championships, with her highest score at 1st level over 75%.
