This is a rare opportunity to have a partner that will take you just as far as you want to go! Meet Cognac, a 3 yo, 17 hand (should top out about 17.2), branded Hanoverian gelding by Chicardo out of Eclaire by Escudo I. He's gorgeous, friendly, athletic, and an incredible mover. This boy just exudes top shelf hunter. As for performance, hold on to your hat. His sire, Chicardo, was Champion of the 2007 Holsteiner Licensing and Reserve Champion in 2011 in the German authorized 70-day Sporthorse Stallion Performance Test. In 2007, he also was Reserve Champion in the Young Jumper Championships Mid-West Finals. He went on to show Grand Prix showjumping for two years before retiring to breed full time. Cognac's dam, Eclaire (aka Escarda) is a State Premium Hanoverian mare. She was USDF Region 8 Reserve Champion in Training Level Dressage. After having 5 foals, at 15 years of age, she competed in USEA eventing and took the Gold Medal in Novice. She later showed Training where she qualified for the USEA Championships. Cognac himself showed in hand at the USEA Young Event Horse class where he scored an unbelievable 82.5%! His USEF ID is 5805416 and USEA ID is 220342 (he is registered as Cognac VS with USEA). Since then, he has been in professional training for the past few months and is always a willing and calm personality who rides alone or in company. He always wants to please his people and tries new things without drama. Maybe you know someone who will put this striking fella in your stocking this year?? If not, don't wait - just do it for yourself!
