WF Cristiano

Cris is a very proud horse who has proven himself to be quite the underdog.  We've literally grown up together and have formed a bond that I can't imagine ever having with another horse.  He's really my best buddy and I'm so lucky to have him with me. --Emily



WF Cristiano is a half Andalusian gelding by Indiano XVIII out of the Holsteiner/TB mare, Christiana (Conquistador).  Emily and Cris met in 2000 when he was a long yearling and she was just 14.  While he started out awkward and uncoordinated, Cris would always keep trying to please.  His patient temperament has proved to be invaluable as it has allowed him to learn and grow into a successful FEI mount with Emily as his only rider.

WF Syrano

 
Syrano has always been known as the "Little Brother" to Cris, but is now proving himself to be quite a competitor!  He's always, always happy and such a pleasure to work with.  I'm very excited to have had the chance to develop him to FEI and look forward to our future! -Emily

 

 

WF Syrano is a 9 year old Dutch Warmblood by Juventus, out of Zayada (Formateur). 
Syrano came to Emily from family ties.  Emily had ridden his dam and several half siblings--eventually she came across Syrano and decided he was the one!  Syrano had a very successful first show season at training and first level, competing at the CDS Junior Championships, the CDS Annual Show, and the USDF Region 7 Championship.  He was ranked 13th USDF 1st Level Horse of the Year.  In 2008, Syrano made his FEI debut at I-1 with a 62.25%!!
