This weekend we went to view some horses and I rode boys as usual. The groom called as he thought Hagge was going to colic, but he was only making is usual groaning sound so false alarm and he got a good workout to calm my nerves. I am in stables every day as the heat is getting to us I want the boys to get out twice a day. Walker in the morning and training or paddock in the evening with refreshing shower. On saturday we said a final goodbye to Ravel that is finally off to Candy in USA, she REALLY can't wait anylonger and who can blame her, it has been a long process with castration etc etc. Yesterday Minna that is a happy owner of Ingrato and Kameron, brothers to Halagador, turned up for a visit at our stables, Minna entered stables and recognized Halagador instantly, I think you can see why!

Yesterday I rode Donoso, Hagge and Start so Festivo and Molinete was up today. Molinete only gets a short lounge warm-up now, his trot is rhytmical and canter is slow with incredible balance! His contact is super and he is very light on legaids, I forgot how much fun it was to ride a young horse! And I what a pleasure to ride THIS one!
Festivo is going back to stud station as we are going to collect him for frozen semen. I have had inquiries from mareowners from all over the world - thank you so very much for your interest in our stallions! Our plan was to freeze for all the countries but in the end I am afraid there are too many rules and regulations, several weeks of cuarantene is necessary and right now we do not want to expose Festivo to another longtime stay at station as season is over. So we decided we only freeze for EU countries for now.
