OCET Horses
Upstage
Upstage is a 15.2hh, 1991 Thoroughbred gelding owned by Mr. and Mrs. Richard
Thompson of Malvern, PA.
Woody is one of the smallest horses Karen has ridden at this level. “He gets better every season,” Karen says. “He’s a great friend and a great horse to ride.”
In 2006, this pair came in 7th place in the Red Hills CIC***World Cup division,
and then 13th at The Fork CIC***W. Showing the others how it's done, Upstage
cruised around the Rolex CCI**** cross country course with a clean and fast
run. They finished 12th. Karen and Woody went on to represent the United States
as individuals at the World Equestrian Games in Aachen, Germany.
Highlights of their 2005 season include a 10th place finish at the Fair Hill
International CCI*** and 7th place at the Rolex CCI****. Woody was 3rd in the
Advanced division of the American Eventing Championships that year.
Look for Karen and Upstage to make their mark again this year!
