Paris!

What a weekend we had in Paris, the highlight of course was Tornesch that ended up being third in the Grand Prix! But lets start from the beginning. On the way down to Paris I teamed up with my good friend Emma for the last bit. Lunchtime on thursday we loaded Tore, Räven and Christians two horses Taloubet and Sebastian and headed for the french capital. The trip went well but I have to say it was a little bit sweaty driving a twelve meters lorry down the Champs Elysees! The stables were located in a small parc and was really nice and we could actually see the Eiffel tour from there! On friday morning I first did vet check and then Malin came to ride both the horses. In the aftetnoon it was time for the first class where both horses had one down. On saturday Tornesch jumped the first class and was placed sixth! Räven jumped the second class that was a team competition so Malin road together with Roffe. Räven jumped brilliant in the first round and was really fast so going in to the second round they were in the lead. Unfortunatly Räven had one down and they ended up fifht. And then on Sunday Tornesch was third in the GP and jumped amazing! Christian Ahlmann won with Taloubet so we were two happy grooms that loaded our superstars and returned back to Germany! Sara
