Press release from Ashford Farm

 


 

After Marlon Modolo Zanotelli and Angelica Augustsson-Zanotelli formed their careers and had many successful years as team riders for Ashford Farm, the couple decided to develop their own stable in Eksel, Belgium in 2016. Eight years later they will join the growing Ashford Group which will embody multiple equestrian ventures alongside the established Ashford Farm stables in Bocholt. “As the Ashford Group continues to grow, we aspire to bring the best possible professionals to our expanding business”, Enda Carroll begins to explain. 

Join forces

“The collaboration with Marlon and Angelica has always remained close. Both riders regularly compete with Ashford Farm (co)-owned horses and over the years we’ve traded and sold many horses together as well”, Enda continues. “Augustsson-Zanotelli Stables will merge with the Ashford Group and our companies will join forces. We are very excited to work even closer together with Marlon and Angelica, while they continue to work from their state-of-the-art facility. They are highly motivated and extremely talented equestrians and I believe together we will be stronger. We gladly welcome them into the fold of the newest developments of the Ashford Group.”

Natural collaboration

Both Marlon Modolo Zanotelli and Angelica Augustsson-Zanotelli are excited about the next step into their renewed collaboration. “Ashford Farm has always had a very special place in our hearts and the opportunity to work closer together with Enda and his team is very exciting and feels natural to us”, Angelica continues. “We look forward to adding our strengths to the strengths of Ashford Farm. In this case 1 + 1 does not equal 2 but 3. We are confident we can accomplish great things together”, Marlon concludes.

Flying the Ashford Farm flag

With this merger Marlon and Angelica will fly the flag for Ashford Farm again, in addition to its established riders Jana Wargers and Giavanna Rinaldi. With the Ashford Group currently expanding, Jana will be relocating to her home town of Emsdetten in Germany and will continue to represent the Ashford Farm brand as a rider at top level. Giavanna Rinaldi has been representing Ashford Farm very successfully in both Europe and North America and she will continue to do so with Bocholt as her home base.

The development of the Ashford Group

“With our COO Michael Cristofoletti having trained Jana for many years from European Championships all the way to the Olympics, we are now exploring the options to have Michael, Marlon and Angelica share their exclusive insights as coaches to a limited number of suitable students. There are many exciting developments to come and we look forward to working with all these professionals and have them as ambassadors for the Ashford Group", Enda concludes.
