Things have been going full swing at BMW! Fabulux attended another show at Yarra Yarra and brought home a %68 and %72, we are so pleased with how nicely she has turned out to be. We are offering all our horses for sale at this time due to some life changes. BMW will continue in the future but we are needing to take some time to focus on other things for now.

Exciting news!!! Fabulux and her trainer Caitlin Casey attended their first show together and brought home not only two blue ribbons but also the HIGHEST score of the entire show... 70.7%. We couldn't have asked for a better first show from Lexi and are so proud to see her shining in the ring.
Lexi and Caitlin will be attending a clinic with Jan Ebeling on Feb. 20 at Star Vaughn, after that we have a few weeks off and then onto the CDI and Dressage Festival at Rancho Murrieta in April. Keep an eye out for updates!
We have downsized our program a little so we will " hopefully " be expecting three foals in 2012. Quaterback x Stedinger , Quinar x Gaspari and Feinest is still stallion shopping but Wolkentanz II , Romancero H and a couple others are topping our list!
