After the separation of Renate Voglsang (AUT) and Fabriano it is know definite where the beautiful brown horse will continue his career: in Japan. In the end of 2014 Renate Voglsang’s contract with Fabriano’s owner, Michael Schönleitner, ended and the stallion returned to his owner.
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.
