What a weekend for Team Cob & Co.
From the day Sonny arrived as a gangly yearling, Alyssa has been part of his journey. For over six years she’s loved him, worked with him and believed in him every step of the way.
What makes today even more special is that Sonny hasn’t spent years in the show ring. Last breeding season he was out with his mares, the year before that learning the ropes of being collected, and he’s already the proud sire of three stunning young horses. After just seven weeks under saddle, he attended his very first ridden competition.
Alyssa, we’re incredibly proud of you. Your quiet dedication, patience and beautiful horsemanship have helped shape Sonny into the horse he is today, and seeing you both enjoy such a successful debut was incredibly rewarding.
A heartfelt thank you to Mariaan for her unwavering support of Alyssa and the Cob & Co family. Behind every great partnership is someone quietly cheering from the sidelines, and your encouragement never goes unnoticed.
A special thank you also to Louise and Candie for giving Sonny such a wonderful start under saddle. Your foundation has helped set this young stallion up for success, and we’re incredibly grateful.
We’re so proud of Sonny, not just for the ribbon, but for the kind, talented young stallion he’s become. 💙🐴🥇
