Horses

Hans

2012 KWPN Gelding (Sir Donnerhall I – Fabuloso)

Hans came into Siobhan’s life in early 2020. They had an impressive, albeit short, show season at Third Level, earning multiple high score awards and scoring over 75% at 3-3. They are aiming at Prix St. Georges in 2021.

Siobhan and Wachenheim

Wachenheim

2004 Hanoverian Gelding (Worldly – Westwall)

Wachenheim was imported by a client of Siobhan’s in 2017. A green Prix St. Georges horse, he had competed with success at the FEI Junior level (3rd level equivalent) in Europe, including being named reserve horse for the Belgian team at the 2016 European Junior/Young Rider Championships. His new owner showed him at Prix St. Georges in 2017 with much success, including a 5th place finish in the Region 1 Prix St. Georges AA Championship, and a wild card for USDF Finals. Despite their success, they were ultimately not a good match, and his owner generously made it possible for him to stay with Siobhan.

Siobhan developed “Waki” to Grand Prix, and he debuted at that level in early 2019. He is currently leased to one of Siobhan’s students.

Friendscout and Siobhan Byrne

Friendscout

2014 GOV Gelding (Fürst Romancier – Rosier)

Siobhan imported “Tinder” from Germany as a green-broke three year old in 2017. She took a leap of faith and bought him off of a video. Tinder has three fantastic gaits and incredible natural balance. After getting some show experience as a four and five year old, Siobhan is focusing on training with the aim of getting him back in the show ring in 2021.

Despite all of the anxiety and uncertainty, there Despite all of the anxiety and uncertainty, there was plenty of good in 2020. I’m grateful for my fantastic group of friends and clients, who were so supportive and understanding of my physical issues this year. Not to mention my friends and colleagues (Rebecca Douglass and Sara Spofford) who took time out of their busy schedules to keep my horses going while I recovered. I am very lucky. Here’s to new dreams, goals, and adventures in 2021. My team has some big ones in mind, and I can’t wait. #dressagetrainer #dressage #equestrian #marylanddressage #newyearsgoals
