November 14, 2012 – Wellington, Florida – Artisan Farms has acquired two new mounts for 2008 Olympic Show Jumping Champion Eric Lamaze of Schomberg, Ontario, Canada.

Rosana du Park, a 2005 bay Selle Francais mare (Kannan x Quinine de Livoye), and Big Smile, a 2006 grey Westphalian mare (Cartano x Hors de la Loi II), have joined the stables at Artisan Farms.  Both horses have successfully competed in FEI-sanctioned young horse competitions in Europe.  Purchased from Gilbert De Roock of Belgium, Rosana du Park and Big Smile arrived in Florida on November 13.

“Both are my type of horse, very careful with lots of blood,” said Lamaze of the two new horses that will join Coriana van Klapscheut in competing with him for Artisan Farms.  “They really felt special to me when I tried them, and show a lot of quality, talent and potential.  I am excited to start working with them.”
