February 2012

I recently heard good news from Angela, the owner of Albi TWF who renamed him Alibi TWF. Last July Alibi placed first in the 2-year old colts/geldings class at the Bucks County (PA) Dressage Breed Show.  He started under saddle last fall and will continue his dressage career this spring.  Angela says:  "He has been a really lovely boy to work with and he truly has a great personality."  (For information on Alibi's breeding, see SOLD page).

Sofie continues her training as a hunter and

September 2011

DeCoration and Her Foal Sirlana Go Their Separate Ways.  DeCoration ("Dezi"), by DeLaurentis out of Weitara, was sold to Brenda in PA.  Brenda plans to get her back under saddle and breed her in the future.  Dezi's 2011 filly by Sir Gregory, Sirlana TWF, is staying home and doing well, out with her new friend Clyde (our 21-year old gelding). 

July 2011

TWF mare Sofie has been back under saddle in training with Inge Janke for the last 3 months and is doing very well.  She is showing an aptitude for jumping as well as dressage.  Jumping video may be seen at www.youtube.com/watch.  She is for sale, currently priced at $20,000. 

Sirlana TWF, a 3 month old filly by Sir Gregory out of our mare, DeCoration (DeLaurentis), earned Premium at her Oldenburg inspection on July 8 at Silverwood Farm.  The inspector, Holly Simensen, commented on her excellent articulation behind and had her trot again to show spectators an example of the type of movement needed to perform at the FEI level. (See larger images in photo gallery, 2011 Foals)

Sadira TWF's new owner, Amy, sent along a few recent pictures with this message: "I might be a little biased, but she's gorgeous! I'm a particular fan of the radar-ears. :) I'm planning to lightly start her this fall (I am DYING to sit on her) so I will definitely send more pictures and keep you updated along the way."

Keepsake Arrives.  Keeper, our new 2-year-old Fidertanz
filly out of Kindred Spirit II by Schampus/Karon, an
imported German Trakehner Premium Oldenburg mare, arrived at Twin Willows Farm from Florida in early May.  She has a wonderful personality and has settled right in,
making new friends (pictured with our gelding Clyde and our 2-year-old filly Roanne).

TWF Mare Sold.   TWF's award-winning Oldenburg GOV mare Revlon, by Routinier, is now owned by Kim of Michigan. Revlon's first foal Sadira TWF by Starlight earned Premium at her GOV inspection in 2009. She had a very fancy liver chestnut colt by Benetton Dream who was given a Premium at his GOV inspection. The inspector also stated that Revlon was the best Routinier mare she has seen. Kim plans to put Revlon in dressage training and show her.
After her show career, she will join Kim's brood mare band.
