    ​The Petschenigs, Peter, and Nathalie, have recently relocated to Texas from California, where they had a loyal clientele.   As a testament to their program, several of their clients have stayed with them, commuting to Texas in order to continue with their training.  Nathalie Petschenig explains, “Our mission is to help our clients reach their cherished goals.

    I think what makes us unique is that we make a personalized plan for each client.   We cater to the individual so that we can work closely to produce results.” The Petschenigs are sought for their expertise in hunters, jumpers, and equitation.  Nathalie works with riders of all ages and all levels, from short stirrups to Grand Prix. She says, “I have a passion for teaching; it’s been so rewarding to help kids and adults improve and find success at the top levels.”

    “We love it here in Texas,” says Nathalie, “because we are able to create the ideal training atmosphere.  In California, we were in a shared facility, whereas here we have a spacious ranch, and we live on the property.   We are committed to giving our clients one-on-one attention, and this setting supports that. It’s great for the horses too.  They stay sound and are really happy because they get personalized care and turnout in safe, quality pastures.”

    Nathalie Petschenig is a born horsewoman, having begun riding at age three under the guidance of her grandfather, USEF Hall-of-Famer Morton Smith.   Her career includes countless wins, with national titles from intercollegiate competitions, to west coast medals finals, to Grand Prix show jumping.  As a trainer and coach, she has helped students advance through the levels to compete successfully at Maclay Regionals, CPHA, PCHA, and West Coast finals, plus Jumper Championships and Hunter Derbies.
    Peter Petschenig learned to ride in the Netherlands, and has made a lifetime career of campaigning show jumpers at the top levels in Europe and the U.S.   As a sponsored rider, he has won countless Grand Prix and earned top finishes in World Cup competitions.

    The Petschenigs 17-month-old son Owen is already an equestrian.   One of their clients bought a miniature horse, and whenever Owen is able to get a pony ride, he expresses his delight with giggles and laughter.

    For Immediate Release - Kim Beaudoin for CHP Parker, CO – July 18, 2017- Week six of the Summer In The Rockies Series (SIR) concluded at The Colorado Horse Park (CHP) on Sunday, July 16, after another successful week of top hunter, jumper, and equitation competition. Peter Petschenig of Pilot Point, TX, and Con Spirit were victorious in the highlight class of the week on Saturday, July 15, the $80,000 Front Range Kubota Grand Prix.

    Petschenig and the 2006 Westphalian gelding (Con Cento x Utah) owned by Petschenig Showjumping, LLC, rose to the top of the class bosting 28 horse and rider combinations, and ended the night with a victory after a jump off time of 53.736 seconds.
    ​
    Kelli Cruciotti of Elizabeth, CO, guided Hadja Van Orshof, owned by Serenity Farm, to second place after completing the jump-off track in 54.772 seconds. Third place was awarded to Mandy Porter of Encinitas, CA, piloting Coral Reef Follow Me II, owned by Coral Reef Ranch, who finished the short track in 55.24 seconds.

    “He jumped fantastically tonight. He really stepped up to the plate this show, and I’ve only been riding him for about a month. I’ll have to give him back, as he belongs to my fiancé,” laughed Petschenig. “In the jump-off, I just didn’t try too hard. I tried to stay on the inside track and was lucky enough and fast enough, and at the end of the day, that’s what it came down to.”
    Petschenig took over the ride for his fiancé, show jumper Nathalie Cooper, who is expecting a baby in August. He explained, “Nathalie bought him when he was a six-year-old she rode him up to grand prix. I’ve taken over the ride until she gets back in the tack. We started out together at the end of HITS Thermal and we had a little bit of trouble finding our rhythm when starting out. We are doing good now though and I am looking forward to the next couple of shows that I have with him.”

    Petschenig and Con Spirit, known as “Henry” in the barn, will take a brief break in August before continuing on to contest the Longines FEI World Cup™ North American League West Coast competitions through the rest of the fall season.

    ​“We will have a little break when the baby comes in August,” said Petschenig. “Then we are going to go on the FEI World Cup™ Tour on the West Coast with Sacramento, Del Mar and Las Vegas. We will see how Sacramento goes and if I have a good horse then maybe I can send it on to more of the FEI World Cup™ classes Canada and go from there. I will take it step by step, but he is jumping great. Maybe he is a championship horse. We’ll find out.”

    Peter Petschenig and Saint Quentin Claim $40,000 Spring Classic III Grand Prix, presented by The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel

    April 9, 2017 – San Juan Capistrano – The grassy knoll of the Rancho Mission Viejo Riding Park at San Juan Capistrano was filled with fans this Sunday afternoon as a crowd gathered to watch the $40,000 Spring Classic III Grand Prix, presented by The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel. Peter Petschenig galloped to a sweeping victory aboard Saint Quentin in an unbeatable time of 40.24.

    Thirty-six horse and rider combinations attempted to master the difficult track set by Puerto Rican FEI Course Designer Mauricio Garcia Ballesteros. Sixteen efforts resulted in fallen rails throughout the course, namely at the oxer at fence 8 and the three-stride line, fences 10 and 11, by the in-gate. The time allowed played a crucial role as well, as Ballesteros predicted it would. Eleven riders incurred time faults, two of whom cleared all the fences and were left solely with faults from the clock. Eight entries managed to navigate the 1.45-1.50m course fault-free, and Petschenig piloted three of those eight horses. He finished with unfortunate scores of four faults on two of his three jump-off mounts, but earned the overall win without question on his final attempt with Saint Quentin.

    “He can be super fast,” Petschenig said of his 14-year-old partner of six years. “I tried to stay on the inside track, but I didn’t force it too hard because the other ones weren’t that extremely fast. Today was lucky.”
    ​
    Petschenig noted with a laugh that he has never jumped a track designed by Ballesteros clear before. Today was a turning point, however, for he managed to pilot three to the jump-off, one of which was double clear. For the win, Petschenig was also awarded a pair of Roeckl Sports riding gloves and EquiFit MultiTeq™ front boots.
