Hammlisch




October Hill Farm recently received a greeting from client Kathy Birmingham, owner of Hammlisch, a son of Heraldik imported and raised by October Hill Farm. “Marvin” was sold to Kathy as a green hunter prospect, and went to train with Ken Smith, a top east coast hunter trainer who winters in Wellington . Marvin’s first season at the WEF was full of great news, with placings in the very large pre-green divisions. Marvin, who is now nine years old, was produced by the Contender/Fernando/Lido mare “Hertie”, who sadly passed away in 2006.

“Hi Wendy,
I thought you might enjoy viewing some photos of Marvin. He is doing great. He showed a bit in Florida this winter for practice but I really just have fun with him as I lost interest in showing. I ride him a lot and it ranges from jumping to trail riding. He is very happy and lives from May to November at Evergreen Farm which is a beautiful 250 acre farm on the border of Illinois and Wisconsin . He still spends his winters in Florida .

I hope all is well with you.

My best,
Kathy Birmingham”
