First placements at 5*-shows CHI Geneva and CHI Basel

12.01.25 At the end of the year, Jason had the opportunity to compete with Picobello in Geneva. As a highlight of the season, they participated in their first 5* event, where they came home with two placements. In January, they immediately continued on to the CHI Classics in Basel. There too, they secured two placements. Overjoyed with the progress, results, and the growing partnership with Pico, the stallion can now enjoy a several-week winter break. Results:CHI Geneva: 140 - 11th / 155 - 9thCHI Basel: 145 - 21st / 145 - 5th

First Nations Cup with the Swiss Team

Picobello and Karly Fight successful in Avenches

15.09.24 At this year's Swiss Championships for Swiss and foreign horses, Picobello secured second place in the Superpromotion over 145.

Elite Swiss Championships in Lyss

18.08.24 Although it didn't result in a placement in the final of the Elite Swiss Championships, we are very satisfied with the two great rounds from Picobello. After the first qualification round over 150, which Jason and Picobello completed without any faults, they were in 8th place after the first round. Unfortunately, it was the last two jumps in the 160 course on Sunday where the pole came down, which meant they did not qualify for the second round. This was Jason's first championship under the Swiss flag, as well as Picobello's first rounds at this level. So, for us, the SM debut was definitely a success. A big thank you goes to the team of Niklaus and Karin Schurtenberger for organizing this beautiful event. They spared no effort in creating the best possible conditions for riders, horses, and spectators. We are all looking forward to the next Swiss Championships!

CSI Oliva Nova 2023

28.02.23 Once again we started the new season in Oliva Nova, Spain. After a successful MET 1 in January with our 6 horses, the MET 2 in February was sadly cancelled after the second week due to an EHV outbreak. So we all landed in quarantine instead of jumping in the sun! We were reminded again that our sport is not only about the results, but also how happy and thankful we were to return home safely with all our horses fit and healthy.

Merry Christmas...
