This unique and very talented horse has been a part of the HS Eventing Team from the beginning of his Eventing career and has had an incredible rise to the top! After a very successful 2018, which included his first CCI3*L win and a 7th place finish in the 7-year-old CCI3*L World Championships in France, he kicked off 2019 with a bang – winning his first Advanced and finishing second at the Ocala International CCI3*L. He was subsequently named as the Traveling Reserve for Team USA at the Pan American Games in Lima, Peru. He finished out the year in the Top 10 at the Millstreet CCI4*S and competing at the Boekelo CCIO4*L Nation’s Cup for Team USA. In 2020, he won the Pine Top Advanced class and had multiple top 4* finishes at Great Meadow International, Plantation Field International, and Galway Downs International. Known as “The Monster” in the barn, this exciting horse is a unique individual and truly loves his job, while making everyone laugh at his goofy antics along the way. There are big things to come in the future for this special young horse! Owned by: The Monster Partnership (Rob Desino, Chris Desino, Renee Lane, Deborah Halliday)
