Columbian international rider Marco Bernal has in partnership with Klieber Dressage LLC purchased the 12 year old Oldenburger stallion Fürst Fugger by Fürst Heinrich / Weltmeyer / Pik Bube II.
Fürst Fugger became Bundeschampion as 3 year old with Lukas Fischer, and again as 6 year old with Kristina Bröring-Sprehe.
Marco Bernal has since 1997 been based in Wellington, Florida together with his wife Charlotte Bernal and their 3 children. Bernal started his dressage career at a young age moving to Warendorf in Germany with his wife to get his education, and graduated as the first Latin American from Warendorf. Later on Bernal became Columbian national trainer, winner of silver medal at Pan Am Games and participated at World Cup in Las Vegas.
With Fürst Fugger who has arrived in Wellington (right now he stays in the quarantine) Marco Bernal will first of all bring him out at small tour level to try to get to know each other, and will continue his education towards Grand Prix.
