Below: AWHA mare of the moment Sonique
(Imp) (Sandro Hit x Donnerhall x Akzent I)
owned by Marjory Radford of Wedgewood
Lodge Stud, Darling Downs.
Sonique, a 16.3hh 7 year old mare, was
imported in 2011 and since then has done
exceptionally well, although its perhaps not
surprising as her full sister is the current Grand
Prix Champion in Finland! She has won the
Supreme Ridden exhibit at the Gala Showcase
two years in a row and was Supreme Ridden
Warmblood at the 2012 Perth Royal Show.
Marj says she is a pleasure to compete with,
always willing, and a brilliant attitude to work
with soft and expressive paces.
During the 2013 Trakehners Australia
and AWHA Ltd Assessment Tour Sonique
impressed all who witnessed her in action.
Not only did she win her Studbook Led Class
on 87.14%, she was also the highest scoring
Studbook Led Horse in Western Australia and
on tour, placing equal first in her Studbook
Ridden Class with a score of 83.00%, the
highest scoring Studbook Ridden Horse for
Western Australia and equal first Studbook
Ridden Horse on tour.
