Yes spring has definitely arrived and with it all the 'glorious' polen and I am sneezing away..
Bonnies first horse did not pass the piro, means he is not able to fly and was not meant to be hers. So now blood is drawn from another serious sweety, a extravagant mover. It is a black Pegasus, a PRE stallion that is a tempis-master, has a excellent piaffe-passage, a fantastic worktrot - up and forward - and he also has a great walk and canter. It certainly is a international FEI horse so his nickname had to be the 'Mini-Totilas'! Bonnie did perfect clean changes and a wonderful spontaineous passage on him so please coss your fingers for her. I promise to post the video of him if all goes well so you can see what I mean and enjoy his moves..
As you can see Bonnies trainer Bill that is a Grand Prix judge also loved this horse!

New week and it is spring! Donoso is telling me he wants a wife, a tall black wife that has competed and is a longlegged model with a elegant posture like himself.. Funnily I happen to know one of those.. And the other day I was offered some wonderful bay mares that are due to give birth now. I have two favourites of those, real movers with excellent bloodlines. Seems there is buzz of PRE females right now, so I am having a conversation with myself, I really want more offspring from Donoso, Donita VIK is the elegance herself . To be able to buy Halagador I had to sell her mum (sister to Halagador) so I have no breeding mare right now.
Anyway, here some pictures of our big baby Festivo when he was having fun! He is a lucky guy that has quite a few spanish wifes by now.
Some pictures from today, we went to see Festivo and Hagge at Tony's, had lunch and went back to ride Åses horse some more. He was achy from riding yesterday but such a sweety and just kept on going. Then we had dinner and celebrated Åse's birthday that is tomorrow, G R A T T I S!!

Today was first day of spring!
Bonnie has still not had the results of the pirotest, the blood was not sent express despite our extremely clear instructions for the studfarm vet and it only arrived to lab yesterday. So now Bonnie has to wait for sunday, she said she would use this as an opportunity to use her Zen skills, good for her. It is hard when you don't know if you will be able to have the horse you are in love with or not. Erin is suffering the same situation, will tell you more about her and her possible dreamhorse shortly. Cross fingers for both of them!
Boys trained, Start got a new haircut and now we are off for dinner with newly arrived swedish friends. Have a great weekend everyone!
