He found a buyer from Japan for the 16 year-old Westfalian stallion (Florestan I x Angelo). Masano Takahashi is going to gain experience in the international dressage ring aboard Fabriano.
A sponsor of the japanese rider, who owns his own stable in Tokyo, is going to secure Fabriano until the Olympics 2016. The 33 year-old finished fifth in the 2006 Asian Games and is trained by Jonny Hilberrath (GER). That is where Fabriano is located at the moment.
The duo will make their first appearance at CDI3* Stadl-Paura (AUT) from 4 to 6 April 2015.
