Eye Candy (Escudo II x Goldstern by Grenadier), a 1999 Hanoverian bred by Hans Hosp of Ottendorf Germany, began his classical dressage training in Vechta, Germany, with Catherine Haddad Staller in early 2003. Eye Candy was purchased by Robin Mattson in October of that year. Eye Candy remained in Germany in training with Staller until the fall of 2005, when Robin imported him to the United States. Over the next 17 years, Robin and Eye Candy progressed through the levels to Intermediate I, earning their USDF Bronze and Silver Medals.
After a year away due to the COVID-19 pandemic, horses and riders from across the country once again have descended upon the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington for the 2021 US Dressage Finals presented by Adequan®, a unique national head-to-head competition being held November 11-14 which offers a wealth of championship titles and over $120,000 in prize money.
