Mon Cheri
I would like to announce the purchase of Mon Cheri, a beautiful imported Danish Warmblood mare!
Through a wonderful partnership with Laura Beeman, I was given the chance to find an FEI horse of my
own, and Cheri is truly so much more than I ever could have asked for! I can't begin to thank Laura enough
for all of her support, as this journey would not be possible without her.
Cheri is coming from Wellington, FL, where she was owned and trained by FEI trainer Heidi Basler. Cheri
has been trained and shown through Grand Prix, and I cannot thank Heidi enough for trusting me to be
Cheri's next partner.
I traveled to Wellington and rode Cheri for 3 days, and I can honestly say I am already enamored with this
mare. She absolutely loves her job, and is such an incredibly happy horse. She and I worked so well
together, and I can't wait to develop my relationship with her! She was such an incredible find, and I am so
thankful for this wonderful addition to my program.
