Horses from Denmark continue to be attractive on the dressage market. Two more FEI level trained Danish owned horses have sold aboard. Fern Hill Derry is moving to South Africa, while Laurentius is starting a new show career in Great Britain.
Rikke Lindberg's Grand Prix level trained Fern Hill Derry has been sold to the South African Niekie Pienaar, who owns a Friesian farm. Her head rider Cheré Burger will be competing the 12-year old bay gelding (by Ricardo Z x Farhaan xx) which the Lindberg family acquired at Isabell Werth's barn.
