2024 American Hanoverian Society Inspection at Quantico Sporthorses
September 2024
 


Highlighted by Franklin

It was a beautiful day for our American Hanoverian Society inspection. Thanks to Rick Toering and the rest of the AHS team for fitting us in and being great to work with, as always. We presented a mare and a foal, both by Franklin, and happy to say he is still producing good horses for us. Frida Kahlo QC (out of SP/El. Rhosemary by Rosentanz) became the third mare we have presented to AHS for an overall score of 8 or above! Our only foal this year, Fujita QC (out of Laurette by Londonderry) was named a Gold Medal foal. He is for sure one of the best we have bred.

Gold Medal Foal Award
 


Fujita QC Named a Gold Medal Foal

This is truly a top colt with incredible expression - he just has the "it factor." He was awarded as a Gold Medal foal with comments that included "exquisite type, very correct, all the movement uphill, so much swing and elasticity, stunning." We are really looking forward to his future!

Frida Kahlo QC, Overall 8 Mare

Named a Gold Medal Foal in 2020, Frida Kahlo is now also an overall 8 mare with the American Hanoverian Society as a four-year-old. Her individual scores included 9s for head and typiness and femininity and 8s for neck, saddle position, frame, conformation, trot, walk, and overall impression. The judge remarked that this is one of the nicest mares they have had the opportunity to inspect. We are very proud!
