Autumn Charm Sport Horses exemplifies the small breeder. We breed a few mares each year , working towards quality conformation, temperment, movement and appearance. Each youngster is handled daily and is taught the basics from a young age. Youngsters will be shown in hand, when they are ready and then started under saddle until sold. We breed sport horses and German Oldenburgs.

STALLIONS STANDING AT AUTUMN CHARM
Coromino is a 17 hand bay Oldenburg Stallion by Corofino ( holsteiner ) / Romino . He has enjoyed a successful jumping carreer and is making the switch to dressage. Corys canter is a dream - big elastic and uphill. Coromino is handsome, a lovely mover and pleasant to be around. In fact - I would say he is a boarder favorite - gladly accepts all treats , loves attention. Pictured at Autumn Charm 6 / 07 below.
" Coromino is such a captivating horse - I think everyone that has come to the farm to visit him has bought a breeding ! Corys temperment is exceptional - sweet and attentive- and the more you talk to him and fuss over him the more he loves you ! I particularly enjoy his canter - it has a powerful jump to it - such FUN to ride. I like this horse so much - I bred him to my own broodmare. Come and meet him - you will be captivated too !"
