Rome

I arrived in Rome late on Tuesday evening and the rain was pouring down. Anna from Lisen had been nice and put straw in my stables so I could unload the horses quickly and then start to drag all the stuff through the mud.
The next morning I took the horses on the lunge for a while before Malin came to ride. They were all fresh and happy, Baltimore was a bit too happy but after a while he settled down as well.
In the evening all the Swedish grooms went for dinner at Hard Rock, nice!
Tornesch jumped the small class on Thursday and looked fine but later in the day he had a fever and could not jump the Nations Cup on Friday. Very disappointing since he was in such good form the week before but that's the way it is with horses sometimes. He was good again on Saturday but we decided not to ride him anyway, would be stupid to risk something.
Baltimore jumped his first 150 class and was clear, he is really impressing!
He jumped the 150 on Saturday as well with one down but jumped amazing!
Undicci also had a good show, the first day he jumped the night class under lights witch was the first time for him. He was a bit stressed out but he did a good job! On Sunday he jumped the 145 (it was really big!) and did a nice clear!
