The young horses from Australia are coming along nicely. My
pride and joy, Ray Price and Wallaroo, have been quietly developing here at
Windurra throughout the year. In the past I’ve made the error of pushing my
non-Thoroughbred young horses along a bit too quickly, and I’ve made sure with
Ray and Wally that I’ve given them
plenty of time for their bodies to develop into strong eventing prospects. Both
of them are ¾ Thoroughbreds and ¼ Dutch Warmblood with outstanding pedigrees; they are each related to 4-star eventers and Grand Prix dressage and show jumping
horses.
My partner in both horses is Amy Lindgren, who’s been
involved with my eventing horses for the past five or six years (one of her notable horses is Minotaure du Passoir).
Both Amy and I are very pleased with these two geldings and are excited for 2014.
