Farouche floats to freestyle win
May 14, 2014
Woodlander Farouche and Michael Eilberg once again took ownership of the dressage arena winning the invitational Advanced Medium Freestyle to Music at Royal Windsor Horse Show.
The pair was awarded a huge aggregate score of 84.05% from judges Leif Tornblad (DEN), Andrew Gardner (GBR) and Maarten Van Der Heijden (NED) – albeit Tornblad’s individual score was over 89% – and they won the class with a margin just short of 10%.
“She is an impressive mare,” said Tornblad. “She is extremely well balanced throughout and her paces are not exaggerated – the front and hind legs match which is how it should be – she is the complete package.”
British judge Andrew Gardner commented; “Without doubt she has presence which comes from her size and temperament. Everyone is watching her and so far each time she has delivered.
The chestnut mare, an elegant 17.2hh, bred by Lynne Crowden and owned by Alison Walton and Ferdi Eilberg, has not been beaten since, with Eilberg in the saddle, she won the six-year-old World Young Horse Championship in Verden in 2012.
“Everybody expects her to do well and that does bring pressure,” said Eilberg. “But once I’m on and riding her talent takes over and I forget. The feel she gave me in extended canter is unbelievable – she felt mega.”
