2012 open guillermina

Birth: 03-02-2004 SBA 31785 RP 692 By Optimum & Open Geisha( Sun Gulf & La Luna) Breeder & Owner: Ellerstina S. A. Player: Nicolás Pieres

Nico Pieres:

“ I’ ve been playing Open Guillermina since she was five. I played her in my first Open and continue to do so. She is a very agile mare; fast and very tame. She is by far the best I have; she has amazing potential. Every time I play her she helps me to continue improving and enthuses me. In 2012 she won the prize to best mare at Palermo, and I believe she has gone down in history as being among the good mares that have set foot on that field.”

“ The mare is very comfortable; sensitive, and when under pressure or during important matches she goes that little step further. Anyone can play her; I played her in the Open final, and on the following day she was played by Frank Dubarry and she performed just as well. She’ s a very universal mare, and that is also good”.

2014 open chequera

Birth: 17-11-2006 SBA 34770 RP 97 By Sportivo( Lode) & Open Cheta( Rainbow Corner & Open Chita) Breeder & Owner: Ellerstina S. A. Player: Facundo Pieres

Facundo Pieres:

“ She’ s very complete; the best mare I’ ve ever played. She is very powerful; takes her curves beautifully and has a very good mouth. Maybe she’ s not the fastest of mares, but she is explosive, so that it doesn’ t matter that much. She’ s a winner; very good in divided play, getting into nooks where other horses perhaps don’ t dare enter: she pushes ahead, and the more you play her the better she seems to go, as though she will never tire. I’ ve been lucky in that when she was very new I played her, and except for some practice matches with pilots, I have always played her myself in matches.”
