Claudia
Turner is no stranger to the work ethic and dedication necessary to insure the highest quality of horses available from Turning
Point Warmbloods.
Her migration from a refugee who escaped from East Berlin as a teenager to that of a prominent
equine breeder and trainer should be regarded as an inspirational success story. Her experience includes the production and
training of racing thoroughbreds, Arabians and, more recently, warmblood sport horses in the Pacific Northwest.
Ms.
Turner has 25 years of experience in the care and breeding of quality horses. She has extensive experience in marketing and
sales in the “non horse” world in her role of marketing director for Recreational Industries in Portland, Oregon.
Claudia has also been a professional farrier and is in the process of completing her apprenticeship as a breeding
assistant at the highly respected Oakhurst Farms in Newburg, Oregon under the tutelage of Dr. Jack Root, DVM.
She
has acquired a full working knowledge in the insemination, care and foaling activities of an equine program. Additionally,
she is adept in the use of ultrasound and chemical technology required to insure conception rates in excess of 80% on the
initial breeding.
Claudia conducts and participates in educational seminars related to the care, maintenance and
breeding of equine athletes that are utilized in racing and dressage competitions.
