From Emma Sidwa of New Jersey, USA
Mrs Sidwa sent this lovely update on her mare which was born of Talarosa Zippo and Clues and Rumors (aka Dixie)

Hi i'm Emma,
Just a few years ago my parents and i bought a beautiful chestnut Qh mare, only 4 years old. I was so excited i've been riding for a long time, getting a first horse was and still is the best thing thats ever happened to me. You may know her as Zippos Justa Fine, her mother Clues and Rumors, and her dad obviously the great Talarosa Zippo! But the funny thing is how far she has traveled, (i believe it to as, it was meant to be) i know after looking through your website being ecstatic that i found Georgia's "Relatives" after looking through her papers one day that where she was born, was located in Michigan. Which was kind of funny because i have purchased her in Up sate new york only a few miles away from the canadian border! But, that being my summer vacation house, i kept her at a very nice stable where she had spent most of her young life and after two long winters without her in my home in new jersey i decided to move her down this year. Anyway, i just wanted to let you know how much Georgia has meant to me and that everywhere i go everyone tells me how much they love her and what a fantastic mare she is. We've done western pleasure, barrels, western equitation, and just a few months ago we switched to english and she's doing fantastic in that as well. We had our first english show (as of right now she is 6 and turning 7 on april 6th i can't wait to celebrate her birthday!) a few days ago, working hard all winter practicing for hunter i had been seeing her 4-5 times a week getting lots of lessons and time in the saddle, and when the show came my trainer showed her in beginner hunter over jumps and i had shown her in flat work, and we had taken champion out of 10-30 other horses! I was just happy she was a good calm girl like she always is. Plus, recently the owner of the barn i have her boarded at asked me who her sire was because she looks just like a mare she had owned a few years ago, and we later found out it was Talarosa Zippo. I can't wait to hear back from you,
Thank you
