Little Tinka for Gianni Govoni

Viva Itália! Italian show jumper Gianni Govoni has an interesting new horse under his saddle. His sponsor, soccer player Hernan Crespo from Argentina, has bought the 10 year old grey Little Tinka (Tinka’s Boy x Fiorella x Fiorello). The grey gelding up to now evolved under the saddle of the British rider Mandy Goosen.

Hernan Crespo had already bought Aboyeur W and Ornella (both formerly owned by Athina Onassis and husband Alvaro de Miranda Neto) and had placed these two horses at Gianni Govoni’s disposal. With the purchase of Little Tinka, Govoni now has a third top horse in his stables.

Little Tinka is an offspring of Markus Fuchs’ legendary Tinka’s Boy, and with the Mandy Goosen quite successfully – in January, for example, they finished in runner-up position in the Grand Prix of Neustadt / Dosse. Little Tinka was owned by Mandy’s mother.
