Benicia

Benicia is without a doubt the princess of our stable. She is an elegant, powerful mare with exceptional presence and a naturally confident way of going. From the moment we bought her as a 3-year-old future prospect, it was clear that she was born to shine in the arena. Even at a young age she showed outstanding rideability and a perfect competition mindset.

She won her very first 4-year-old test with an impressive 85%, and shortly after received an exceptional 89.4% from a German judge in the young horse classes—proof of her quality, expression, and natural charisma. As she matured, she continued to build an extraordinary record. She won the Belgian Championship Cups in 2020 and 2021, and in 2022, 2023 and 2024 she consistently brought home the silver medal in the Small Tour.

Benicia has also achieved multiple international victories at Small Tour level and even reached No. 2 on the FEI 1* World Ranking List, establishing herself as a true top-level competitor.

A mare with beauty, power, consistency and star quality—Benicia is a rare combination of talent and temperament.
