Now under saddle and wonderful to ride. Last foal of the year and first foal from Shavane!

Shelene is super to ride in a smaller package. She demonstrates active
movement with a volunteer attitude
under saddle. She is forward thinking
and good in the contact, although still
very green. She is improving with every ride- all you can ask for in a young riding horse.
 

We are excited about her because she is the first foal sired by Shavane. We were surprised she is a chestnut, since dad is dark brown, mom is bay out of a black mare, but the good thing is that Shelene looks exactly like EM Rheporter, Shavane's dam, and that is a very good thing! Selene was the Greek goddess of the moon, which she drove every night across the skies.

Inspection and Show Results

Shelene did the German Oldenburg inspection and Mare Performance Test on August 17, 2023 at our farm. She did super, receiving a score of 7.7875 on her mare test. She received 8.5 in rideability, 8's on free walk, walk under saddle, trot under saddle, and 7.5's on free trot, free canter, and canter under saddle. We put her through the free jump chute, since we had it set up for the Hanoverian inspection and she jumped confidently with a good form the very first times through. She is a really fun horse to ride, in a perfect size for a lady rider, and the rideability for an amateur to have fun on. New video September 13:

Shelene's sire, Shavane, is a 2011 Fully Licensed and Approved German Oldenburg (GOV) 16.2 h stallion by Shakespeare RSF (Sandro Hit/Arrian) out of Elite Mare Rheporter (Royal Prince/Weltmeyer). Shavane was licensed by the GOV in 2014 with very high scores (8 breed and
sex type, impulsion and elasticity in the trot, general impression and development, canter and saddle position). He then went to the 2015 70 day stallion test in Oklahoma. He would have placed third overall (117.64), 2nd in dressage (127.05) and 5th in jumping (104.19), had he not been severely injured (read- hairline fracture of the LF cannon bone) just a few days before the stadium jumping final days. His scores up to that time included 9.5
temperament, trainability, and rideability, 9.0 character, trot, and gallop cross country, 8.5 canter, walk, and free jumping. He has since recovered completely and has gone on to a very successful show career.
