From Elite Auction Foal to National Champion: The Story of Aimee
Penhaligon Soleilette Aimee (Freischutz x Soliman De Hus) has proven to be an absolute model student, rewriting the history books with an extraordinary multi-year championship winning streak. Our journey with "Aimee" began when she was purchased as a tiny, leggy six-month-old foal at the prestigious Stoneleigh Elite Auction. Bred by Theresa Oakes at the renowned Penhaligon Stud, Aimee showed incredible promise right from the start. Backed, produced, and trained entirely from home here at Treetops Equestrian in Berkshire, every single milestone has been a true family team effort.
