Kuerten splits with owner Lady Forbes

No idea, but am very disappointed. It did sound as if there's been a few financial issues to sort out. Kuerten and Libby to me is like Shutterfly and Meredith being split up - a great partnership that just belongs together. (Not to say that both of them won't be successful in their own rights as they move forward of course). Jessie was doing a great job of producing the younger horses too, like Cosma and Myrtille Paulous. All of them will be a loss. Fingers crossed there's a supportive buyer lined up so that we see Jessica back soon, rather than having a few wilderness years of only producing youngsters. Irish showjumping really is taking a bit of a battering of late, isn't it?
 
Cant believe it, what a blow for Jessica.
Always a star with the European crowds and great value for money.
Are they all mares going to be bred from perhaps?
Some really great partnerships there I agree.

What a blow for Jess, she had such a great partnership with Libby and even Cosma seemed to be coming on one hell of a lot!

Sure she will bounce back soon :)
 
Hmm great shame.

Not sure of the reasons why but another illustration as to why its best not to be an owner. Who wants the hassle.
 
Whatever has happened it is a bloody shame, Libertina and Jessica Kurten are\were my favorite show jumping pair, the mare is outstanding and to watch them in a jump off is a sight to behold, going flat out on an angle to a MASSIVE oxer, ahhhhh!!
