Recently I’ve returned from Düsseldorf where I got a chance to see Anna’s best-trained horses. I must admit I was impressed to see so many and so beautiful and talented warmbloods there.

We hope you are doing well!  We had a fun thing show up in the mail today.  Below is a photo of the Westfalen Horse Association Newsletter here in the States.  Alexander was asked to write about his experience horse shopping in Germany.  Thought you would enjoy seeing it!  Him and Raven are doing great together!

At the moment, she is training the 4 year old horses progra...
