Shannon TSF Sold to the United States

August 10, 2003

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.
