Danish Young Horse Champion

The chestnut descends from the dam line that produced licensed stallion Polarzauber (by Charly Chaplin). He's a full brother to Furstenklang, who won the 2025 Danish Young Horse Championships as a 5-year old.

Farringhton was first shown in Denmark by Ida Kristine Bjørn in September 2023. She qualified him for the Danish Young Horse Championships, but Cathrine Dufour rode him to a fourth place at the nationals after just a few days together.

Anne Marie Hosbond then took over Farringhton. In their first competition together, they won the 5-year-old qualification at Vilhelmsborg,but he did not show at the Nationals. In October 2024 Daniel Bachmann Andersen took a seat in the saddle and rode him to gold at the 2025 Danish Young Horse Chamionships.

This year, Bachmann showed Farringhton in only two shows: a September qualification show for the 2026 Danish Young Horse Championships for 7-year olds. He placed sixth at the Championships in Herning
