Hedonizt breezed through his first Clear Round!
(090801)
Today, 5 year old stallion Hedonizt (Samsheik US - Relacja/Algorytm) breezed through his very first Clear Round at the beautiful Simlång ride. The ride was 48,5km and he went in a relaxed pace of 11,43km/h. He behaved very good and had no remarks in the vet gates. We where very happy to see that he drank very good during the whole ride and kept a good forward spirit. Hedonizt is for sale.

We also follow Hedonizt´s full brother Rebel Yell, born 2003. He is in training with national team rider Ingrid Boström and has done a very good first season this year so far. Last weekend he was 2nd at the 80km Rimbo ride, keeping a pace of 16,1km/h. A month before this he won another 80km ride in the same pace and another month earlier he was part of the team winning the 120km Swedish team nationals, plaicing 9th individually.

Milia completed this seasons last endurance ride!
(081026)
Today it was the first strong autumn storm, together with drowning rain. Not the best conditions for a beach ride, we can say for sure. Was I lucky to have a partner like Milia out there! She did not care about any of that, she carried me through raging ocean waves, smashing rain and flooded paths in good temper without even flicking for any of it. Tankyou Milia for making an extremly hard day very easy for me! Big heart and no nerves! 51km was the ride and Milia made it in 11,1km/h, always with good heart rate and vitals. While the weather was at it´s wearst, nobody could bring out a camera, so these pictures are actually from the part with the good weather...

Mondiale Kossack placed 2nd in her first start!
(080628)
In her first start ever, Mondiale Kossack placed second, beaten by 1,1/4 lengths. Down to nr 3 there were another 5 lenghts. The race was one of 2 maiden races for 3 year olds, one exclusivly for fillies and one that whas open for both stallions and fillies. Mondiale started as only filly in the mixed race and made us very proud, showing a finish speed that impressed!
Both Mondiale and Hedonizt, who also started today, had to do last second jockey changes. Conny Fraisl, who was suposed to ride them both, took a bad fall the race before Hedonizt´s race and could not ride any more races this day. For Hedonizt this ment that a replacement jockey was found only minutes before start and the race did not go well. He ended as number 6 today. They both are scheduled to start again in 3 weeks.
