The Golden Ticket
She first appeared in 2015 - a beautiful buckskin Trakehner filly for sale online. I fell in love. Two years later, I was still looking for buckskin warmbloods online when I found a buckskin Trakehner mare. It turned out to be the same mare I had seen two years earlier. Could this be fate?
