News from Trevelyan Farm

Congratulations to Teresa Schmehl on the sale of Warwick's Courtjester. Warwick was shipped over to the West Coast to his new owner Julie Schepper. We congratulate Julie also, on the purchase of this amazing little horse and we wish you all the best for the coming show season and beyond.

I am proud very proud to announce that after attending and competing in my very first "A" horse show that Whizbang and I were Champion - Intro Level - at the Sun Burn Dressage Classic I and Reserve Champion - Intro Level - at the Sun Burn Dressage Classic II.

A final farewell to our foundation broodmare...Koko pictured here with her daughter Charisma. Koko was also dam to Sebastian and Wicked Elegance.

We are thrilled to announce that in 2007 Forrest Flame was award three stars in the ISR/Oldenburg Star Award Program. The first star was for his scoring at the 100 day Stallion Test held at Paxton Farm, Ohio (he currently holds the highest score for a pony to ever have gone through the testing). The second is for producing 10 or more Premium Foals within that Registry and the third is for his performance in sport (currently competing and winning in dressage at 4th Level Open). This is quite an achievement for any young stallion...not to mention a pony. Well done Forrest!

CONGRATULATIONS ARMANI & TRACIE RICHARDSON...
2007 NEDA YEAR END DRESSAGE SPORT HORSE BREEDING CHAMPION FOR THE 2 YEAR OLD STALLIONS & GELDINGS....WAY TO GO!

Armani made it in the top five again! This is a very special young horse and we are thrilled to see Judges are consistently placing Armani in the top of the best KWPN horses in the country. Just to remind you, Armani is out of our Ster mare Venezia and sired by Rousseau. Bred by us and purchased by Tracie Richardson at only 3 weeks of age. Congratulations Trace.

Sidenote: Check out our En Utero sales...we have another Rousseau foal arriving April 2008 out of our very special Ster mare named Sioux (Provisional keur).

JEST JOYOUS AND KERRI HEALY
Ocktoberfest Hunter Trials at Olde Hope Farms, MD 10/7/07

This was their first Hunter Trials...Joyous and Kerri put in a fabulous dressage test in the morning, tying them in 1st place. They went clear in the stadium jumping and retained their lead. Cross country was in the afternoon, unfortunately they had one stop out of what was otherwise a terrific ride and were happy to come home with a 6th place ribbon in the Intro Horse Division...especially as this was their first time out at a Hunter Trials. (photos to come)

Results from the ISR/Oldenburg Inspection at Pennock Point, FL - Oct. 4th 2007

Hearty Congratulations to Sally Moehring and Waverly!

This result absolutely made my day...Waverly was presented for approval into one of the Mare Books by owner, Sally Moehring. Waverly scored an outstanding 107 points, easily putting her into the Premium Mare Book and in addition, earning Waverly her first Star in the ISR/Oldenburg Award Program.
Waverly was bred by us and is sired by Wicked Courtjester and out of our foundation broodmare, Zauberelle. Waverly follows her full sister, Winslette who remarkably earned the same score of 107 points in June this year when presented and also made Premium Mare.

This is a stunning mare ...congratulations, Sally.

Congratulations to Forrest's Wicked CourteZen and new owner Grace Vance from SC. CourteZen came away with 1st place in the ISR Sport Pony Class and in addition was an absolute delight to take and show, staying relaxed through out and appearing to thoroughly enjoy all the excitement that DAD has to offer.

Congratulations goes to 2 yr old Winsome Courtjester and owner Cory Gregory on placing 1st in the ASPR Class against tough competition including 2 older stallions. Winsome Courtjester was bred by Laurie Ryan from MO and is sired by Wicked Courtjester (as if you couldn't guess from the name).

Congratulations goes to MaryAnn McCaffrey from NY with her outstanding colt, Kilmore Ultan. Out of her lovely mare Poco Josey Slipper and sired by Forrest Flame, Ultan scored 8.3, 8.1, 8.3with an overall score of 8.2 and receiving Premium Foal Award. Look out in 2008 for a full sibling of Kilmore Ultan to arrive in the spring.

Armani continues his winning ways - congratulations to Tracie Richardson and Armani for taking 1st place in the Dutch Warmblood Class with a 71.7% and for placing 3rd in the 2 yr old Colts & Geldings.

We thought this fabulous photo of 4 yr old Warwick Court Jester deserved a spot on our News Page - featured on our For Sale by Breeders page, Warwick is a serious FEI prospect suitable for a young or small rider. For more information go to our For Sale by Breeders' page and/or contact his breeder/owner Teresa Schmehl on 609 268 7405.

This inspection had to held on one of the hottest days ever with heat and humidity reaching a index of 105…but our ponies were still able to represent themselves well. We are extremely proud to announce not only, did we bring home four Premium Awards, Wrocketeer out of Rockette and sired by Wicked Courtjester was announced High Scoring Champion of the day with 8.5 out of a total of 29 foals presented AND it was strongly suggested that we keep him as a stallion prospect and bring him back for the approvals in three years.

We would like to congratulate the outstanding success of two New Forest ponies at the 2007 Pony Finals!

Enchanted Forest (Sulaatik's Fireball X Patroleander), an imported Dutch New Forest gelding ridden by Lillie Keenan, was the 2007 Wildhorsefeathers/USEF Pony Hunter Finals Medium and Grand Pony Hunter Champion.

Magic BB (Igor), an imported Dutch New Forest gelding ridden by Elizabeth Boone, was the 2007 Adequan/USEF National Pony Jumper Individual Champion.

Just a side note: Patroleander is by Oleander who just happens to be the same the sire of our very own Wicked Courtjester.

Wendy Mattes 6/10/07

News from Wendy.... Yesterday was Gracie's first show. (Intro A and B...)
She won her first class with a score of 65.5%. The judge's comments were "lovely horse with a wonderful light quality" and "horse has many positive qualities, including lightness, energy, straightness and balance."
She came second in the second class with a 62.5%.

This is especially thrilling for us as Winslette is our first home bred mare to be awarded Premium Mare and Judges were very complimentary about her. Winslette is sired by Wicked Courtjester and is out of Zauberelle.

FORREST FLAME AND JILL HARDT QUALIFY FOR REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS IN BOTH FIRST AND SECOND LEVEL DRESSAGE

We would like to take this opportunity to thank Jill for all her hard work and dedication in the training, showing and management of Forrest. As many of you know Forrest stayed in Florida during the breeding season and Jill very kindly took care of shuttling him back and forth from the collection facility, kept his training sessions going and even was able to get him out to a couple of clinics with Tom Noone and Ann Gribbons. We recognize how fortunate we are to have Jill as our trainer and more importantly as a dear friend and
we wish them all the luck in the world for the up coming Fall/Winter show season.

August 26th & 27th in Tampa, Florida

Jill and Forrest competed in both First and Second Level in dressage with the following results:

Second Level, Test 4 - 68% - 1st place
First Level, Test 4 - 74% - 3rd place
Second Level, Test 3 - 70% - 1st place

Having previous well qualified in Second Level for Regionals, they gained the one First Level
qualifying score required and will now be showing in Third Level in the Fall/ Winter 2006/07.

RESULTS FROM ISR/OLDENBURG REGISTRY BREED INSPECTIONS AUG.26TH 2007

Firstly let me say this was an outstanding group of foals presented, probably the best I've seen under one roof, with an unusual amount of Premium Awards given (and rightly so-in my opinion).

Loved that there were foals by great sires, including Ideal, Ruffian, Coconut Grove, Nobel Champion, Goodtimes, Scimitar, Innkeeper,Bugatti, Royal Appearance, Royal Prince, Contucci, Riverman, Sempatico, Rampal, Parabol, Cordini, Corlando, Blue Blood, Caruso and of course Wicked Courtjester and Forrest Flame I apologize if I missed some.

The most thrilling news is that our filly, Fedora, sired by Forrest Flame scored the highest of all the foals, colts and fillies.

Fedora was given a score of 8.6, 8.5 & 8.5 , was awarded Premium and High Scoring FoalChampion Ribbon. We knew she was hitting the inspections at a good stage of development, but truthfully, having only seen her run and play in the pasture, had no idea she could move the way she did.

We also presented our new mare Rockette for approval. She was given a terrific score of 103 points and entered into the Main Mare book.

Wasabi showed well considering he was standing considerably higher behind and had just entered into the awkward stage. His score was a respectable 7.8.

On behalf of clients, we presented two mares for inspection and approval...

Paragon a Swedish Warmblood mare owned by Christine Louden of NJ was approved in the Main Mare Book with a score of 99 points. Paragon is in foal to Hilltop Farm's Contucci for a 2007 foal.

Home bred Wicked Z, 4 yr old sport Pony mare owned by Barb Young of CO was approved in the Main Mare Book of the Sport Pony Division with a fantastic score of 103 points. "Z" is in foal to Forrest Flame for 2007 foal.

We also presented our own Forrest Gund, a Forrest Flame yearling filly for identification and branding purposes.
