Rinpoché
|
|
|
|
Rinpoché means Precious One. I pronounced her name "Rin-poe-shay". She was a Bavarian/Westphalian mare. Her birth date was 4/1/1998.
|
||
| Rinpoche was green broke as a
3 year old. Then she was put out to pasture as a broodmare until 2009,
when she delivered her last foal. That foal was the #2 filly in the nation
for the USDF in 2009.
Rin was not registered. I felt that Rin had done her duty by her years as a broodmare and had her spayed. I looked at her as if she was a gelding; a "marelding". |

Information below was for when Rin was a broodmare. However I am leaving it up in case anyone else in curious. Remember, Rin is spayed now.
The Hanoverian stallion she was bred to was Benetton Dream.
She had her foal 04/15/2009! See pictures taken two days later here.
He got great scores at his stallion testing in Germany. He got all 9.5s and 10s on all his gaits, ridability and character. 10 is the best score they can get!

| Benetton Dream is the unbeaten champion at riding horse ability classes, including the Federal Championships in Warendorf in 2007. He won the Hanoverian Championships of three-year-old stallions on the occasion of the World Breeding Championships Dressage for Young Horses in Verden in 2007. In front of a home crowd, he was the dominating competitor at the qualifier and the final. He convinced the judges who described him as being an “expressive Hanoverian stallion, true to type, of exceptional quality”! Benetton was the favourite at the 2007 Federal Championships of three-year-old stallions in Warendorf, and he left all competitors behind. He achieved the highest scores in all four riding horse ability classes. His perfect, ground-covering and supple walk was judged with the fantastic score of 10,0 in both tests. | ||
