Obermoschel, Germany - May 19, 2004
Congratulations about your Wanja (Wolkenstein x Rubinstein)

Hi Lynn and Bob,

Congratulations! You have a new St.Pr.St. (States Premium Stute/mare) in your breeding program!

I took the day off from my academic duties in Heidelberg to watch Wanja today. My dad and I just got back a minute ago from Standenbühl. Wanja passed her mare performance test, placing 5th of 40 mares. The Mare Performance Testing Jury agreed with Test Rider Hans Gunter Klein that your Wanja had the best rideability of all the mares. Her score was higher than another mare now competing at L level dressage. The jumping score of Wanja was lower than we expected but I think her postpartum stiffness will go away gradually.

Wanja is now back in Obermoschel for breeding to Heike Kemmer's stallion, Don Laurie (Don Schufro x Lauries Crusader).

Your other two Obermoschel mares, Genovera and LaRochelle, are doing great. We expect your next two foals in the early weeks of June.

Talk to you soon.
Joachim

Go to the May 19, 2002 entry for more information about the wonderfully rideable gelding's lineage. His sire, ``Flemmingh`` is noted for producing dressage horses with incredible character and willingness to work.

``Trik-Trak`` is a four year old chestnut gelding with a flaxen mane. Since first started under saddle by German Bereiter, Maik Ristedt, during the summer of 2003, both Mr. Lyn Clarke, and Kim Kulesa have noted that this young horse has exceptional gaits and a super work ethic.

Red Hawk Ranch in California's Temecula Valley Wine Region

After a two day Jet Pets/USDA importation quarantine at Los Angeles International Airport, Lyn Clarke and his fiancé, Katie Ellis, transported our three newest German fillies to Red Hawk Ranch. Jazz Saxophonist Jason Weber accompanied their arrival as the guests attending our Annual Open House watched on.

Two members of the Germany's Mecklenburg Verband (Dr. Lothar Makowei, DVM and Bereiter Maik Ristedt) traveled with ``Dewey Beach,`` ``Serendipity,`` and ``Delaware Bay`` during their voyage aboard KLM Flight 601 from Amsterdam to Los Angeles.

Since Maik first highlighted Landgestüt Redefin's stallion, ``D'Olympic`` (Vice World Champion Young Warmblood Dressage Horse, 21-25 June 2000, Arnhem, The Netherlands), Red Hawk Ranch has bred this fantastic ``Donnerhall`` son twice to our Germany based mares --- both resulting in SiegerStuteFohlen awards (champion fillies), while also importing two other incredible mares by this same sire.

As a breeding official of the Mecklenburg Verband, Dr. Makowei has indicated that the German FN 2003 Dressage Breed Index Ranking of 13 reflects the athletic talent, character, and beauty that ``D'Olympic`` stamps on his foals.

Next week, ``Dewey Beach`` and her two companions from Germany will be incorporated into Lyn Clarke's "equine kindergarten" sessions held each Saturday at Red Hawk Ranch.

Leading Leading ``Dewey Beach`` to her new pasture are:
Dr. Lothar Makowei, Maik Ristedt, and Lynn Randle-DeGour
