Katharina Stumpf riding Nymphenburg’s Love receives the EquiSafe International Dressage Achievement Award at the 2015 Adequan Global Dressage Festival

Wellington, FL (February 2, 2015)– “Both of my horses are fantastic— they really want to work. They really want to give, and I’m very happy to take,” said Austria’s Katharina Stumpf with a laugh. What her horses gave were several outstanding rides, which earned Stumpf the EquiSafe International Dressage Achievement Award at the 2015 Adequan Global Dressage Festival in Wellington, Florida. Riding her two Oldenburg geldings, Stumpf was ecstatic about the accomplishments both she and her horses had during the festival this past weekend. “We are super, super, super happy,” gushed Stumpf. Nymphenburg’s Love, a beautiful Oldenburg gelding, gave Stumpf two stellar rides, resulting in first place for both the FEI Prix St. George and the FEI Intermediate I.

EquiSafe, a premiere fencing company in Europe, developed the International Dressage Achievement Award as part of their sponsorship of the Adequan Global Dressage Festival. The award recognizes riders who have come from countries outside of the United States who exhibit skillful rides and accomplish high scores. EquiSafe has been celebrating success as one of the most trusted fencing brands in Europe, including recently receiving the MTP Gold Medal at the Poznań International Fair in Poland for their three rail electric fencing system. “Everybody knows EquiSafe,” said Stumpf. “We have it in Europe. It’s the best fence you can have.”

The Austria native will be in the United States for the rest of the competitive season and is enjoying the opportunity. “We are here for the whole season, and we really love it,” said Stumpf. With many rides ahead of her before the end of the season, Stumpf is sure to have continued success with both the exceptional Nymphenburg’s Love and the promising younger gelding, For My Love.

While riders from Europe are familiar with EquiSafe fencing, many American dressage riders have yet to be introduced to the dependable and attractive brand. As the “Official Fence of the Global Dressage Festival,” EquiSafe hopes to make American riders aware of their fences’ benefits. “The United States is the absolute best horse market in the world, and we are very proud to introduce our product here,” said EquiSafe’s United States representative Tommy Hallander. “We have many dressage riders who use our fencing, so the Global Dressage Festival is a perfect spot to show our fence.”

EquiSafe fencing focuses on the safety of the horses while simultaneously providing a sleek, attractive fencing unit. Their fences are made from high-density polyethylene, a durable, maintenance free material that is installed with a 10 year guarantee EquiSafe fences feature a revolutionary LED light system option that is powered by a conductor system patented by EquiSafe. This conductor system is hidden in the cross bar of the fence, eliminating bulk and creating a sleek, streamlined fence.
