Off to Spain

Malin only jumped Lady today in the 140 since the others are going to Spain. She was really good and placed fifth!
Olle and Challe both had one down but jumped nice so it was a good weekend for all horses!
Now I'm getting ready to leave for Spain. We drive to Belgium tonight and then we stop one more time in Lyon. It's a long drive but Rebecca is coming with to help me so it's not that bad.

Grand Prix time

I love that they have free wi-fi in the stables in Antwerpen. Now i'm having some lunch in the stable and soon I will start preparing Arctic for the Grand Prix. Sibon and Danny is not jumping today so I longed them this morning. The horses has been jumping really good, Sibon has been clear in all hus starts and Danny was 2nd in the six bar jumping 2,05. Danny was also jumping the 1,50 yesterday with one down but jumped really good. Now I have to get back to work fingers crossed for Arctic today!

A good day!

Last night we went to bed early so woke up fresh this morning!
We got all the horses out in the morning, Bengan and Uffe on the lunge and the others got handwalked.
Malin jumped the 135 and all three horses jumped clear, good job!
Frida rode the youngsters in the 120 and they were also good. Olle jumped clear and Challe had one down in the jump off.
After a late lunch (the food is great here!) we took the horses for another walk and some grass. They were all very happy since we still don't have any grass at home, only mud!

Henriksdal

Malin jumped Bengan, Uffe and Lady in the 130 this morning. The boys did clear rounds and Lady had one down but looked very nice!
Tore is not jumping this week so Malin rode him a bit in the afternoon.
Both stallions have been totally crazy today, even Tornesch who's normally very nice was rearing up an bucking around. So now I have cramp in my arm after to handwalk them both. Hopefully they will quiet down by tomorrow!

We made it!

Finally made it to Henriksdal last night after a little bit of trouble on the way. Fridas car broke down on the motorway with the trailer on it with two horses. After a couple of hours she finally got toed away to a nearby gas station where we were waiting. We unloaded the two horses (and of course just then the sky opened), put the trailer behind the lorry and soaking wet we continued towards the south.
Unloaded the horses and unpacked everything and by two o'clock we were finally in bed.

Some stable pictures!

Bengan playing with the camera. New horse Sanuro ( by Sandro Boy) looking pretty. And pony Lea getting a bath, it's muddy in the fields now!

Change of plans

On Monday morning I took a plane back to the Netherlands to pick up the lorry. Now it's all fixed and ready for another season.
Malin called me on the way and said she got an invitation to the GCT in Valencia. So instead of doing two weeks of national shows in Sweden I'll be heading south with Tore, Bengan and Uffe.
But first we are going to Henriksdal to jump this weekend with eight horses in total. It was a bit tight to get all the stuff and horses in (since I'm gonna be away for a month) but with both the big and the small lorry and a car with trailer we got it all in! Sara
