Unexpected we went to Vries and started for the first time M2. Cini was really great today. In the first test we came third with the very good score 189 points (1 winningpoint). The seond test was even better, but that the jury thought different, only 169 points.
Tolida, mother of our Zombra, sold by us to Van Pernis is now owned bij Kirsten Kruis She wrote me a mail. She started Tolida at Z1 dressage level and met an Italian lady who was looking for a livetime friend. She liked Tolida very much and bought her. Tolida is in Italy now.
Messidor, bred by me, and sold to Ashlyn Pumprey and now owned by Kristin Payden, had a gas colic over the weekend and spent 3days in the hosiptal. No surgery, had him scoped and there is a small area in his stomach which was not normal, possible old ulcer. Also, waiting on test for a type of bacteria which causes extra gas to build up, that will be back Wed and can be treated, he will be fine and continues to do great!!
I went to Roden with Cini. It rained untill our warming up, so we had lots of luck. I had two fans (extra). Our guests Gaby Muller and Rose LePretre from OCTANORM Vertriebs GmgH Stutgart Germany went with me. Cini was a little bit scary at the warming up place because of the eventing fences, but during the tests she did her very best. We still have to work on the details. Our score was very satisfiying, 180 and 188 points, 6th and 4th prize. Rider Laura Zwart went with Zombra to Gorredijk. Both Z2 tests gave a very good feeling, but the score was a little bit les as expected, both tests 198 points.
