2003 Oldenburg colt by Sunny Boy out of Dia Castagnia. Shown here at 5 years old, you might remember Solo as our little orphan foal (his mom died when he was 10 days old). All grown up now to well over 17 hands, he sold as a stallion prospect but has since been gelded and is showing great promise as a dressage horse in in the biggest shows in the country. Picture at left was taken at Lexington.
