This fall NorCordia USA is preparing for its bi-annual migration from Califon, New Jersey, to the equestrian hub of Wellington, Florida.
Known for its world-class facilities and winter competition circuit, Wellington offers the perfect environment for NorCordia’s athletes to thrive during the coming season.
This carefully orchestrated move, set for November 1st, involves the transportation of nine hand-selected horses. Each horse has undergone careful training throughout the summer months, with programs individually tailored to enhance their performance and readiness for the upcoming season. From young prospects, to para horses, to Grand Prix prospects, NorCordia’s fleet of sales horses is ready for the journey south!
Best Collection
According to Catherine Haddad, CEO of NorCordia USA and Head of Development at NorCordia, this is the best collection of horses to date that the organization has brought together for the winter season.
“We have an extraordinary group this year,” says Haddad. “The quality, talent, and readiness of these horses are unmatched, and I’m excited to see how they perform in the winter circuit.” Haddad bred and trained Vianne, the 8 yr old American Hanoverian mare by Vitalis who brought home Individual Bronze for the USA and the first Olympic medal for NorCordia under the USA’s Kate Shoemaker.
“If you can’t find the horse of your dreams in the USA, we have an excellent selection of horses with top trainers in Europe as well,” says Haddad who recently scored a lifetime high of 79.5% with Sola Diva in the Intermediare I at Redtail Farm in New Jersey. Sola Diva is expected to compete in the Lövsta Future Challenge at Intermediare II level this winter.
Visit NorCordia USA
Before they depart, NorCordia USA invites its patrons and investors to visit their facility in New Jersey for a final opportunity to view the fall collection. Guests can expect to see top-tier equine talent, each horse and rider finding superior synergy under Haddad’s experienced eye. NorCordia’s horses have all undergone extensive vet exams including x-rays to ensure selection of the best candidates for the coming competitive season.
