When Elisabeth Tepper, the native American, who lives in Belgium, visited us for the first time, she immediately fell in love with the beautiful black mare Edira by Rousseau/Donnerhall. The owner of the four-year-old mare (bred by Christine Arns-Krogmann) Julia Zissel had commissioned us to school and sell the horse and after Elisabeth’s Belgian veterinarian had completed the pre-purchase inspection, Edira set off for Belgium. However, the fantastic four-year-old Quaterback/De Niro son, Quinto, who was licensed in Switzerland, had also caught Elisabeth’s eye. His breeder Robert Schmid had commissioned Andrea Müller-Kersten, who lives in Holtrup, with training the horse on. After Edira had settled in for a few weeks, Elisabeth rang and asked about Quinto, rushed back to Holtrup and bought the young stallion, who had already competed successfully in novice classes for young dressage horses. So, shortly afterwards the young stallion also moved to Belgium. Elisabeth got in touch with us via our partner, the German Horse Center, and since then we have built up a trusting relationship with each other. Who knows, how many other horses might move from Holtrup to Belgium in the future...
