In pony sport in Germany and the USA this pony needs no introduction with his excellent record of performance.

 

Despite his youth, he has not only proven himself in young horse classes but has all the makings in his training to be a super FEI sports pony.

 

Golden West was the Reserve Champion of Westphalia at 3 years old and was the Gold Medallist at the prestigious National Young Horse Championships, the Bundeschampionate as a 3 year old.  Continuing his success Golden West was the Bundeschampion Gold Medallist once again as a 4 year old.  There was no denying that he deserved the Gold Medal after scoring 9.5 trot, 9 canter, 9 walk, 10 and 9.5 from the guest riders.

​

Golden West proved his excellent rideability and character as he continued to stay in the top sports rankings with young rider, Julia Rohmann.  In 2016, he was awarded the Bronze Medal for 5 year olds at the WBFSH World Championships for Young Dressage Ponies.  He then gained a Silver Medal at the Bundeschampionate as a 5 yo.
