What a great start into the season 2026 for the Castle Stables team number two:

Nadine Deville on Melbourne, Milla Frey on Timoteo, Liv Helen Lang with Baby (Larimosa), Chloé Uffenheimer on Covetous, Alicia Stein with Coronna and Laura riding Ursula and Vida.

Horses and riders enjoyed performing under the blue sky and the hearty atmosphere of Italy.

Nadine had to find control over Melbourne who was over motivated at the beginning. For Milla and Timoteo it was a perfect training to ride the level asked for at the Regional Swiss Licence she does on April 22nd. Liv and Baby continued their routine showing clear rounds as well as Chloé and Covetous.

Alicia and Coronna had their first start at a show together. They did very well to the pleasure of Bruno Kalt, Coronna’s breeder.

All eyes were pointed on Laura riding Ursula Ter Wilgen Z, the Rowe family’s newest acquisition. Ursula showed her qualities, her lovely mind and brilliant technique. Another pearl in Tori’s string of horses.

Vida nervous at the beginning became more confident each round. Plenty to learn.

Our thanks go to David who once again produced the most elaborate videos that made every round look perfect as well as to Michel Frey who drove the horses back and forth from Switzerland to Italy.

At dinner we celebrate the successful days the Italian way – big table, pasta, pizza, fish, meet, prosecco and red wine.
