2007 is the year of the Colt for us and many of our friends!
December 7, 2007 - Vb.Pr.St. Winessa (De Niro/Furioso II/Inschallah) is finally home! Tired from her long journey from Germany and quarantine in Maryland. She's still a little thin but fortunately she's still pregnant with her Rohdiamant foal! Thank goodness! Now she'll be in quarantine at the Station for a month before being introduced to the rest of our herd! Since Sparkle has been sold, Rubi was missing her "red headed buddy" so it'll be interesting to see if Winessa and Rubi become fast friends!
November
14, 2007 - Vb.Pr.St. Winessa (De Niro/Furioso II/Inschallah)
and her Stedinger colt, Sirocco, have safely arrived from Germany in NY and will
be heading to
Rigbie
Farms, Maryland (quarantine) on 11/16/07. We're very excited that
they're on U.S. soil and looking forward to Winessa (who is in foal to
Rohdiamant) coming home to the Station! (Sorry, the colt is sold,
CONGRATULATIONS, BECKY!)
September 7, 2007 - we took Chancellor WAS to his (AHHA) Holsteiner (merit foal) inspection and branding in Austin, Texas and he was just terrific!
August 27, 2007 - This was a very busy day ... we took 5 mares and 4 foals
to the Hanoverian inspections in Richmond, Texas. A
huge congrats to Rosoenna our imported Oldenburg mare
for being the site champion non-Hanoverian mare at the inspection and our own TB
mare, Miss Miller was the runner up.
Only two non-Hanoverian mares were approved that day and we're proud to say they
are both ours! A HUGE thank you goes to our good friends, Sue Steuer from
Illinois and
Sherry White of Graystone Farms in Ohio for flying out to give us a hand on
this very busy day!
ABC Horse Transportation was a huge help with moving the horses, taking care
of them overnight and even helping us handle the mares and foals! Well
done, Sue, Sherry, TJ and Johnny! Thanks so much ... a truly great team!
Not to be overlooked during this inspection,
Salieri Rose was the champ filly (we are soooo glad that we rebred Rubi to
Salieri, this is a truly SPECIAL filly) and all our boys did really, really well
too ... we are very proud of each and every one of them!
August
13, 2007 - CONGRATULATIONS to

Note: (Aug 2007) The Oldenburg gelding, Deveroux (De Niro x Rohdiamant) was ridden beautifully by Dutch rider Miranda Rongen to the title of World Champion for the 6 Year Old Dressage Horses receiving 9.5's for submission and overall impression. The judges excitedly expressed, "This is what we want to see!" DEVEROUX WINS THE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS!! [I knew it was worth leaving Winessa in Germany to breed to Rohdiamant ... another champion in the making!]

aggressive chemo this summer for a rare form of cancer. Three of Grace's
mares will be with us this year while she focuses on her health and family
(Grace with her husband Steve and their 5 year old daughter, Alex are pictured
left at Alex's dance recital June, 2007 and Alex is following her mother's
footsteps, she's riding Scooby pictured left).
Fevrier (aka Ninja),
St.Pr.St. Rosa Canina (aka Rubi) and St.Pr.St.
Weinkönigin (aka Sparkle) arrived safely on
June 12, 2007 with their foals. Ninja will be bred to Donnerschlag, Rubi
was bred back to Salieri since her filly, Salieri
Rose

Donnerhall.

April 9, 2007 - We had a wonderful Stedinger colt born to our mare Vb.Pr.St. Winessa (De Niro/Furioso II/Inschallah), in Germany. We're in the process of having Winessa bred to Rohdiamant (she's now confirmed in foal) and will import them to the U.S. this Fall.
