Nice to be home

I'm enjoing having some time at home for once! The weather has also been really nice the last couple of weeks, finally the summer is coming! When I came back from Leipzig I took Tamina with me in the lorry and drove down to Thomas and Helena, the owners of Tornesch. On the way down I stopped to pick up Espri, she is unfortunatley not with foal this year but she looked like she was about to have one next week! So now the to old ladies are reunited and going together in the field, we are hoping to get Tamina in foal with Tornesch and Espri with Turmalin, family buisness! Its was very sad to leave Tamina but I'm sure she's well taken care of! This week-end we have a show in Åby only twenty minutes away from home. Sara

Back home

Tornesch had one one down in both rounds of the final but jumped absolutley amazing! The second round was really really big and he just had the last fence down so we are very proud of him! After the show was finished Tore went with Jeroens lorry straight to Holland and is now gonna breed for two months. It was a bit sad not to take him home but I'm sure that he will be well taken care of at Hans Horns place where he's staying. We are not going to Mannheim anymore so now I'm gonna enjoy some time at home, unfortunatly it's only five degrees and rain today, not so nice! Sara

Drama at the vet check

In the evening it was time for a second vet check wich almost ended in disaster. Ludger lost his stallion who went straight for Rolfs horse Quintero. It looked really scary and it took a while before they could catch it but luckily no one got hurt. Tore trotted good and passed without problem, a few horses had to trot two times but they all passed in the end. Räven jumped the GP but was not jumping super and had two down. But it was no big disaster and sometimes they also have bad days. Tomorrow is the big day with the last round of the final. A lot can still happen so keep all your fingers crossed for Tore and Malin!
