Very much looking forward next week to the Oz Endurance FEI Zalman Challenge at Fernvale in the SE corner of Qld. Although it has only been a few short months since we last competed it feels too long!
We have had a better prep than I anticipated tho the horses are still nowhere near being fit but believe they are fit for both the trip, and for the ride.
The horses we are taking - Shades of Shagrir who is now into his third season of endurance. He has previoulsy completed successfully a FEI 80km* and 120km**. Also Pioneer Park Azaylia who is the baby of the family, being only newly qualifed into endurance during 2010 this will be her first FEI* ride. Azaylia is a half sister to our well permormed gelding Pioneer Park Navarone.
Much more exciting is that we will be bringing home our very special horse, Tractor aka Agecroft Sahara. She has been away in the excellent care of Toft's, spending time with a special man called Sh'taan.
Be lovely having your girl home.
ReplyDeleteWas kind of thinking with the 'much more exciting news' you were going to say you were looking forward to seeing your friend. Nevermind :-).
