In March of 2014, I received an email with the request to come meet a five year old Friesian Stallion, work with him, shoot some photos and video, and then offer my endorsement to help get him sold. It was a day which would change my life forever, the next chapter was about to begin. Before this meeting was over, the message was clear, like getting a memo from the front office, this world class horse needed to be in my barn.
change directions, dramatically. This horse would be a game changer, in every way conceivable. It was time to go to work and introduce the world to Friesian Stallion Crüe.
For the next two and a half years, between retraining Crüe, establishing him as a breeding stallion, relentless promotion and still maintaining my business as a Trainer in order to pay the bills, his career as a superstar, was slowly but surely beginning to take shape. With thousands of horses on my resume’ now, even if this were not my horse, I would easily consider him to be the most intelligent, most magical, of any horse I’ve ever met….I have yet to meet his equal.
