FEI Young Horse Prospect, amazing uphill movement, will excel in any arena! 2006 Hungarian WB filly by HS Wistar out of IH Artess, a premium CWHBA (Dutch/Fr TB) by Footloose (Argus).

Big swing, big suspension, and awesome sit and push from behind, this girl has all kinds of potential behind the fuzzy winter look. She comes from a strong performance mare line with excellent work ethic (see dam pictures below) and is sired by the number one ranked US bred dressage stallion, HS Wistar. Plus, with her super character and personality – she loves her people – you’ll find nothing better, even across the pond! Best of all, she’s grown up as young horses should; in big fields with other playmates. She has not been over-fed or pampered; she’s had the best possible muscle and bone development. Always sound and healthy to date, Tia is 15+h at 18 1/2 mos of age and should mature over 16h (her dam is 16.2 and her sire is 17h).

She is refined and elegant with lots of compact power and strength over her topline. Tia has a 3 to-die for gaits; huge correct swingy walk (couldn’t get it on video as she kept following me around!), incredible power and suspension in the trot, and reach and scope in the canter. She has a wonderful temperament and is a joy to work with, with great manners. Raised and trained by a professional Tia has been correctly started on the ground; she leads, ties, trailers, and is good for farrier etc.

Her mare line produces horses that are competitive, above average movers, bold, forward, sensitive and a wee bit spicy with a tendency to show off. However, they remain very trainable with sensible minds and are quite happy under knowledgeable amateurs. There is no shortage of info online about the success of her sire and his offspring, go to www.summervalefarm.com. If the value of the dollar has your shopping in Europe curtailed, stay right here at home; Tia has was it takes!
