Hampton Green Farm Debuts Two Spanish Stallions at Grand Prix at Dressage at Lamplight

Hampton Green Farm Breeders of the Pure Spanish Horse (PRE)

Hampton Green Farm is a breeding and training operation specialized in the Pure Spanish Horse (PRE). The breeding farm is located in Fruitport, Michigan, where over 40 head of breeding stock live year-round. In the winters, the stallions in training are taken to Wellington to compete in the Winter Equestrian Festival. Pierucci has been a leader in firsts for the PRE breed in the American dressage ring, having won many awards and distinctions at all levels with her young PRE stallions.

This past winter, she competed fourth-level Mejorano and first-level Grandioso and obtained a number of high-point awards with each. Her work with Kathy Connelly has been fundamental to the success of the two FEI horses, both of whom were regulars at Connelly’s Apple Valley Farm schooling shows last winter. “I especially want to thank Kathy for her support and for believing in what we are doing with our Spanish horses--but first and foremost, Peter and Kim for having my back. I am never in the ring alone.”
