Two North American OHBS breeders have just been bestowed with the great honor of having the mares they bred and own be invited to the most prestigious Oldenburg mare show in Germany! Nancy Holowesko of Crosiadore Farm in Maryland, and Ann Kitchel of Huntington Farm in Vermont will be sending their mares to the historic grounds of the Royal Stud of the nn Kitchel on the other hand, has for years kept one foot in Germany and the other in the US. She has her own breeding facility and farm in Vermont, and keeps a few mares with Andrea and Clemens v. Merveldt at their breeding and training stables, Gut Füchtel in Vechta, Germany. Ann has had tremendous success with her breeding program having bred the Bundeschampionate bronze medalist and price record breaking stallion, Statesman OLD (Stedinger x St.Pr.St. Weissendra by Donnerschwee) and the top priced auction foal, Future Star (Floriscount x Frieda by Dormello).
Just recently, another stallion that Ann bred, Don Massimo (Don Larino x St.Pr.St. Little Star by Santander H) won the 6-year-old tests at the CDN Zandhoven, the CDN Schilde, the CDN Flemalle, and made it a quadrouple win at the CDN Herentals in Belgium! This essentially secured the stallion a spot to represent Belgium at the World Championships for the Young Horses in Verden with his rider Larissa Pauluis.
Amazingly, Ann had three mares invited to the Mare Performance Test where they were presented by Andrea and Clemens. Don Massimo's half sister, Little Sue (Dimaggio x St.Pr.St. Little Star by Santander H) was awarded the States Premium Candidate title, and Statesman's half sister, Westend (Status Quo x St.Pr.St. Weissandra by Donnerschwee) was awarded the Verband Premium title. Ann's third mare, Roundabout (Fidertanz x Rudonja by Don Schufro) not only was awarded the State Premium Candidate title, but was also invited to compete at Rastede!
Graf Anton Gunther von Oldenburg in Rastede, Germany to the Oldenburg Elite Mare Show to be held on July 21st, 2011.
