Fernhill Fearless “SPARKY”
“Sparky” is a 2000, 16.0 Irish Thoroughbred owned by Kim Severson. Kim received this horse from Thai Olympian Nina Ligon (the young woman Kim trained for and at the 2012 London Olympic Games). Kim is very grateful and excited to see how far Sparky can go. Don’t let Sparky’s small size fool you, he’s a stoic powerhouse. After a successful debut Summer 2013, this pair went on to place 5th at Fairhill CCI*** and 11th at Rolex Kentucky ****. They have just returned from representing the US at Normandy WEG****, where they finished 23rd individually. They have been named to the 2014 USEF Winter Training List. Sparky is now being piloted by young event rider, Gabby Dickerson!
