BACKGROUND
| Annabel was a successful jumper in Germany before we imported her to the United States in 1996. I was told she and her young rider won the German Junior National Championship, although I do not have any documentation. In the US, Annabel and I competed in the Junior/AO Jumper divisions (up to 4'6") at top shows all over the country while I was a junior rider. Although she is small, she is a compact powerhouse with great scope and form. She is extremely tight and square with her front end and a very keen, eager jumper with "radar ears" that lock in on an upcoming jump. |
| After an unfortunate suspensory injury, Annabel made a career change to dressage to avoid added strain on her legs. She was schooled to about Fourth Level in Germany, and she took home blue ribbons from her first dressage show at Second Level, schooling Third at home. In addition to jumping ability, Annabel has movement that defies her small size with great impulsion and power from behind. |
| Annabel's injury kept her from serious training, so she was eventually retired as a broodmare. Annabel was presented to the AHHA for approval in 2000; she received the following bonits: 6 5 6 6 6 7 7 for a total of 43 bonits and admission into the Main Mare Book. |
| Annabel's bloodlines make her a 3/4 sister to the approved Holsteiner stallion and international Grand Prix jumper Chin-Chin - they share the same sire and damsire, but have a different dam. (They are both Constant/Farnese/xx, but the TB stallion is different). Chin-Chin was 7th place individual and 3rd place Nations Cup, 6th in the Olympic Games in Seoul 1988, and won the Grand Prix of Mexico six times. |

Annabel is 15.2h but moves and jumps like a much bigger horse! |
SHOW RESULTS
| Annabel showed successfully in Children's and Jr/AO jumpers at shows throughout the US in the 1990s and early 2000s, including Indio, Lamplight, Estes Park, and shows throughout Texas. |
