Facilone FRH is simply a sweetheart: super sweet to handle, very easy to ride and always ready to give his best. You can just tell that he enjoys what he does - and that it's easy for him.
Facilone FRH is by Fürstenball - De Niro and is a half-brother to For Sure (by Finest), who is also successful at Grand Prix level.
​
He started his career in the dressage arena under Bianca Nowag-Aulenbrock. In 2016, the then four-year-old Hanoverian became Champion in Verden and was subsequently one of the finalists at the Bundeschampionat in Warendorf. After "Faci" became Vice Champion of five-year-old dressage horses in Verden a year later, the Austrian Stephanie Dearing moved into his saddle.
​
After his first international victory, the final of the seven-year-old dressage horses at the CDI Wiener Neustadt/AUT, Facilone FRH represented the Austrian colors twice at the World Championships in Ermelo, the Netherlands. From 2021 to 2023, "Faci" collected successes in the Grand Prix arena under Marcus Hermes.
Our first joint tournaments in 2024 have already been very promising!
