Congratulations to Carola Hendriks and her lovely mare by Hampton, CWH Hyperbole (Hampton–Dyani FDL, DiCaprio)! She was named Champion at her AHS Inspection.

Congrats to Carola Hendriks as her mare by Hampton recently won her 2020 Hanoverian Mare Inspection in Lexington, Kentucky! CWH Hyperbole (Hampton–Dyani FDL, DiCaprio) was born in 2017 after Carola chose to breed to Hampton for his movement, rideability and wonderful temperament.

"I love my Hampton! It was her second time off the farm and in a moving trailer, but she has so much confidence it’s hard to shake her world. She has such a brain! She even got a great score of 7 in the jump chute and it was her first time. This 3-year-old just shows up every time!"

Remember this cutie by First Dance from last summer? Floraleia, a 2019 filly (First Dance–SPS West Montana, Warkant), was crowned champion at her American Hanoverian Society inspection last year and she recently added another tricolor to her career by becoming champion of her The American Hanoverian Society Official Page's Yearling Futurity!

Bred and owned by Ashlie Miller Racette, she complimented, "Leia has been wonderful. She’s naturally very quiet and easy to work with. She’s very tall and well developed for her age. She’s been a pleasure to have!"
