Archive: November 2001

Montezuma Interagro, a Lusitano stallion in training with Grand Prix dressage rider, Silke Rembacz, made his debut at the Winter Equestrian Festival with impressive results.

"He had a score of 65.6," said Silke who has worked with the horse for just over a year now. "That's really good." Montezuma was showing for the first time at 3rd Level in West Palm Beach. Meanwhile, his training is coming along nicely as Silke works on him with the help of Michelle Gibson.

"He's going really well," Silke said. "His work mentality is super. He tries hard every day. He's starting his changes and he has a really good piaffe, passage and pirouette. I have had a lot of nice comments on his gaits and extensions when showing."
