The winter weather was quite nice and we were able to train without major problems from the weather.
During the winter we bought two new horses. We bought Master Cruiser in December from Finland and for now the horse is staying in Finland. Most of the time Laura rides and competes with Master Cruiser. This horse is 9yo american-french trotter (gelding) which retired from race tracks. Master Cruiser has some quite good traits for endurance horse and the conformation is really good for long distance running. Master Cruiser has lot of potential and we hope to see fast progress during the upcoming season.
In February we bought Don Pablo from France which is also retired trotter. Don Pablo is only 4yo french trotter (gelding). In spite for his young age he is very calm. He is also very eager to learn new things. Also he has very nice movement overall. All these traits should server him well during his endurance career. During the season we are going to build steady foundation for future for Don Pablo with broad basic training and with many small races.
Lauri and Super Pearl competed in Port Saint Louis at 16.11.2016 at CEI*. This competition had minimum speed limit of 14 km/h but otherwise the course was quite easy without any inclines. Previous weeks with heavy raining made the course really wet with lot of flooded parts that made the race harder. However the obstacles Super Pearl was able to finish the race yet again with speed over 15 km/h.
Lauri and Master Cruiser competed in Vesilahti Finland at 28.1.2017 at CEN 18 km. This competition was first race for Master Cruiser and it was just test for the horse to see how he works in the competition. Master Cruiser was really calm and completed the race without major problems. Future seems really good for this horse.
Lauri and Jiicee Superstar competed in Villelaure at 26.2.2017 at CEN 40 km. First competition in PACA area of France. We were mostly just testing the current fitness of Jiicee Superstar. Everything went well and Jiicee was able to finish the race without problems. All looks really good for upcoming events for Jiicee Superstar!
Laura and Master Cruiser competed in Jämsä Finland at 11.3.2017 at CEN 32 km. First race for Laura with Master Cruiser. Horse was quite nervous during the race but Laura and Master Cruiser finished well. More experience for the horse and we trust that horse will learn to relax in future competitions.
At the same date (11.3.2017) Marja and Jiicee Superstar competed in La Crau at CEN 60 km. This race was quite easy overall and we didn't want to push the horse to the limits. Horse was really good and everything looks very nice for future races.
Overall winter was quite nice with good training and few races that prepare us for the upcoming season.
