Michael Jung Announces Retirement of fischerRocana FST

Today we bid auf Wiedersehen to our mare crush, fischerRocana FST, as Michael Jung this week announced the retirement of his three-time Kentucky winner. The 16-year-old fischerRocana FST (Ituango xx – Rose II, by Carismo) cemented her rightful place among the true eventing legends through her career, which spanned nearly a decade in international competition.

Michael Jung and fischerRocana FST became regulars at the then-Rolex Kentucky Three-Day Event, making four trips to the Bluegrass state from Germany and casually winning three consecutive runnings of the five-star, in 2015, 2016 and 2017. They also finished second at Kentucky in 2018. In 2014, fischerRocana was the FEI World Equestrian Games individual silver medalist (and team gold medalist) with Michael in Normandy.
