At the gala evening in Verden our state premium mare by Silvio I - Calypso II was honored as Hanoverian mare of the year 2012. The 18yo SAMMY JO gave birth to 13 foals in 13 breeding years, 7 by Escudo I.  Already with 3 years she delivered the state stud stallion and Grande Prize winner Embassy I. Enzo Re, who starts in advanced jumping competitions in Italy, followed. With 5 years SAMMY JO was successful in show jumping ability competitions 1.30m and at the Hanoverian Championships for young showjumpers. Than 5 breeding years in series ensued. 2001 Embassy II was born. The premium stallion won with Hansi Dreher this year three Grand Prix competitions and is one of the best showjumpers in the world.  Embassy III born in 2002 was state stud stallion in Dillenburg. Now he is sold to USA and wins there a lot of dressage competitions advanced level. Enzo PJ, who impresses in show jumping competitions in Australia, was the 6th son by Escudo I in a row. In 2004 SAMMY JO gave us finally a daughter. The state premium mare Emmy Jo PJ is successful in 1.50m competitions and inspires us also in breeding. 2006 followed a sport break again. That year SAMMY JO was several times placed in 1.45m competitions. Than she gave birth to other sons by For Pleasure, Salito and Cassini II, who won show jumping ability competitions. The 5yo Sam by Salito impressed for example at the final of the Swedisch Sport and Breeding Cjhampionships 2011 & 2012. The performance mare made us in 2009 a present of her 2nd daughter Crispy Jo PJ. We keep the state premium mare also for breeding. This year SAMMY JO beared a son by Bonne Chance and is pregnant again - for an eighth time by Escudo I!

These are the facts that show the importance of the mare. But who knows SAMMY JO, her personality, her willingness to perform and her big heart, is aware of the extraordinary luck we have with this amazing horse.

THANK YOU, SAMMY!
