Pogi and Amy have since
been named to two Olympic Teams and two World Equestrian Games
Teams. They've brought home a Team Gold Medal and an Individual
Bronze Medal from the World Games, plus a Team Bronze Medal from the
Olympic Games.
In 2006,
they won the Chronicle of the Horse Eventing Horse of the Year
title, Eventing Horseman of the Year title, and the USEA Lady Rider
of the Year title.
At the
2009 Rolex
Kentucky CCI****, Pogi was officially retired in a touching ceremony. In addition to Amy, Greg (Amy's
husband), Mark Hart (co-owner), and Allyson Green (long-time groom)
were in attendance to celebrate the incredible career of this very
special horse.

 The
newest addition to Team Tryon is Nicodemus. He's a 2002 German Warmblood
gelding purchased from Sabrina Glaser of Canada. Nico previously
completed a CCI** and Amy is excited about the partnership and has big
plans for him. They did the 2009 winter training session with Capt. Phillips and things went very well. Photo by Samantha Bergin. Owned by: Rebecca Broussard (MT) |

Poggio
II
is a 16h 1992 bay WA-bred Thoroughbred gelding (Polynesian Flyer x
Waves Club). He had a
short career on the race track and as a trail horse horse in the Cascade
Mountains before a friend of Amy's, Janet Von Pressentin, discovered him.
In 1999, Pogi competed for the United States in the Pan American Games in
Canada, and in 2002 his cross-country ride
in very wet conditions at the Rolex CCI**** brought him not only the 3rd place ribbon, but also the award
for the “Best Conditioned Horse”.
