Audi Team

The Audi-team 2023

The Audi team has existed since 1994. The first rider of our stable is Kim Emmen a successful rider who tours the international competitions with his Audi horses including Delvaux, Macho V, Nash vh Lilleveld, Imagine, Inflame Go, Kaiser DMH, Kandiama DMH and a number of younger horses Kim has a total of 14 horses for the highest level.

The team is jointly responsible for training the young horses and bringing out the international horses. This is an important part of the business. The Audi team has been able to compete at the top and in the subtop all these years thanks to horses purchased young and trained by the Audi riders themselves. As is well known, a rider never succeeds alone. The Margaretha farm therefore has five highly motivated grooms, who are indispensable for the Audi equestrian team. In addition, there are three employees who ensure that both the broodmares and the young rearing lack nothing and that the accommodation remains clean.

For the Audi riders, the Margaret Farm is a good home base. The Margaretha hoeve is fully equipped to provide the best possible training. There is an indoor arena of 70mx35m. For the riders there is also a galloping track of 550m, a jumping yard of 60mx150m with both normal and natural obstacles, three treadmills, two lunging circles and a professional loose jumping arena and at the entrance of the stud farm a new jumping arena. There are a total of 72 permanent stables, 36 of which are used for the Audi team. The other stables are for guests who can receive professional guidance at the Margaret Farm and are also used for the brood mares. There are also twelve loose boxes available for the rearing of one hundred young horses.

 
The Audi team can therefore prepare for competitions in peace and quiet, and customers can assist with training or advise on the purchase of one of the Audi horses.
