CICERO VT "POET" - July 2005
   

SIRE: CONCERTO GROSSO of West with the Wind Farm in Abingdon, Virginia is a gorgeous bay Holsteiner stallion. He is a 1998 Holsteiner stallion, approved and licensed with the ISR/OLD N.A. and the American Holsteiner Horse Association. He has been shown successfully in hunter shows and is known for producing elegant, Premium foals with excellent movement and modern type from mares with a variety of bloodlines.

DAM: NEW BEGINNINGS ("BENI") is a powerfully built warmblood mare sired by the Hanoverian Nebelwerfer, sire of Grand Prix dressage stallion and Champion Hunter Nebelhorn. Beni has a tremendously kind temperament and her foals are always treasured by their owners. Many are successfully showing as hunters or dressage horses in the junior or adult amateur divisions. One of Beni's most successful foals is the hunter mare Ellusive (formerly VT Lysistrata), who, at only 5 years old took her owner to the Virginia Horse Shows Association Associate Champion Adult Equitation title in 2006, multiple equitation and adult amateur hunter show championships and a fourth-place finish in the state-wide Adult Amateur Hunter year-end standings.

CICERO VT ("POET") is a lovely young gelding with a wonderful attitude and potential as a hunter or dressage mount. We feel he is the best foal his dam has ever produced, and are proud to offer him in the 2007 Hokie Harvest Sale. Be sure to keep an eye on this youngster if you are looking for a fun, competitive performance horse.
