Hélène E. M.

Born May 9th, 2015, Hélène E. M. was presented and branded at her Hanoverian Inspection in the fall of 2015.

After growing out the pasture with a family group, she was lightly backed as a three year-old, then turned out for the winter. She was brought back into work, but very sporadically in the spring of 2019, then more seriously towards the end of the summer to prepare for her performance test.

Hélène was approved into the Hanoverian Verband main mare book on August 31st, 2019. I presented and rode her in her mare performance test where she got good scores, including a 8.0 for rideability from the test rider!

Hélène is currently furthering her training and will be entering a Neil McIntosh clinic in the fall of 2019.

She will then be taking a break from training as she gets ready to foal a Spörcken colt in the spring of 2020.

She finished second in the Performance Test as well as being crowned Free Jumping Champion.
