outstanding, beating 15 high quality warmblood foals for the honor! The
judges awarded him premium foal and pronounced him a stallion prospect as well.
Béchamel received the 3rd highest score from the judges, also beating several

October
Lateran and Falcor competed
in the 2006 CDS/USDF Regional Championships in Los Angeles. Both horses
were stars, although not champions this year. Lateran was 6th in the Open
USDF 2nd Level Horse of the Year class and was in the top 8 in all his classes.
He was third in the USDF Breeders Championship Class behind two fantastic
warmblood stallions with a score over 75%.
Falcor competed in the
Futurity class and did very well in all his huge classes. We did not place
but were just out of the ribbons. His behavior was perfect and he tried
his heart out for me. I'm so proud of both my boys. They will both
have a few weeks off and then it's back to work.
