Grand Prix horse Shannon TSF has been sold to the United States. For four years, the Trakehner bred Shannon has been trained and shown by Peter Koch, who runs a dressage stable in Oyten, Germany.
Shannon TSF's German owners Bernd Huwald and Balbina von Bremen have sold the gelding to Bethany Peslar, a young rider from Wellington, Florida. Peslar runs Everglade Farms with her parents and has discovered Shannon in Germany through her trainer Cesar Parra.
Shannon TSF, is a grey Trakehner gelding by Kostolany and is considered to be the Trakehner shooting star in Grand Prix dressage. The Trakehner Verband, therefore, accepted Shannon into its promotion programme, Trakehner Sportpferde-Förderung, which financially supports successful Trakehner sporthorses.
Koch is still competing Grand Prix horse Le Primeur and Grand Canyon.
