A lot has happened during the autumn of 2017.
06.10.2017 Lauri and Jiicee Superstar competed in 6yo finals in Uzes France. Jiicee Superstar was awarded with rating "Very Good". Only 30 from 138 of the best 6yo horses got better rating. Thus "very good" was quite good considering that Jiicee was the only non-Arabian horse in the competition made for Arabians. The race had heart rate limit of 56 in every vet gate and 54 at the finish within 10 minutes. Even with the strict rules that aren't easy for trotters Jiicee was able to finish with speed of 14.4km/h. This was also the last novice qualification for Jiicee for the FEI level!
14.10.2017 Laura and Master Cruiser finished 80km in Urjala which was also their last novice qualification for the FEI level! Without problems Laura and Master Cruiser was able to finish the race.
05.11.2017 Don Pablo and Marja finished 44km without problems in La Crau. This 4yo horse is showing quite promising start to his racing career.
25.11.2017 Jiicee Superstar and Lauri debuted in CEI1* but sadly did not finish. As being mare and boxed near many stallions Jiicee developed serious rut (heat) for the race morning. That influenced unusually hard to the behaviour of Jiicee thus resulting metabolic disqualification due to high heart rate which lowered to normal levels after 5 minutes from the vet gate. The problem was not actually metabolic but excitement caused by the rut and nearby stallions. Bad luck but we will be prepared next time to deal with the potential rut!
With broken hearts we had to announce the tragic and untimely loss of our oldest and most accomplished horse Super Pearl in accident in her paddock at 8.10.2017. This tragic event brought us to consider our future more closely.
After some consideration we decided that we want our own stables with pastures and home next to the stables. After few months of searching we found perfect combination for us. We will be moving there 1.1.2018. We hope that after some renovating we can get the stables just perfect for our requirements. The area includes 30ha of land for paddocks, prairies and fields and including stables with 14 boxes and large storing areas. Also including good paths for training in walk, trot and gallop. We are looking forward to develop our team with our new facilities.
During winter we continue on training and preparing to move to our new facilities. Lot of work but we look forward to it!
