Salope: My first show in my borrowed shadbelly with my new horse,
Salope, at Prix St. Georges. "Sally" has been trained to Grand Prix and was found for me in Germany by my trainer,
Alex Gerding. (See info about Alex on the "News and Clinics" page.) It's such a pleasure to learn FEI on a horse
that can teach me. She's truly a gift. Sally has received many compliments from judges/trainers who have seen
her: Gerd Zuther, Linda Zang, Stephen Clarke and Janet Foy. (Photo by Fire and Earth Photography)

Brienza
(Bergamon-Davignon/Donnerhall), a 2000 elite Hanoverian mare, was selected and
purchased as a weanling by Caryn from a private farm in Germany. Brienza earned a 7.3
at her in-hand inspection, scoring 8s on her walk and impulsion/elasticity. At her Mare Performance Test (when in foal), she earned a final score of 7.33. Brienza is currently schooling 4th/PSG. She was one of eight horses selected to participate in the 2005 Olympic Incubator Clinic with Betsy Steiner. Brienza is currently in Florida, so take a break from the winter and check out this exciting horse for your own! (Photo by Kay Geraghty)
