Once a Lifetime
In the end, it was about the horses. Three of the four horses I picked out when I first saw the YOG horses at Glen Haven in April finished in the top three of the Youth Olympic Games. The winner, Links Hot Gossip could be a reincarnation of my old World Cup Jumper, Chakwal. They are so similar in looks, attitude and jumping style. I loved this horse the moment I laid eyes on him four months ago. Flash Top Hat (3rd), Little Miss Sunshine (4th) and Gatineau were my other favourites.
Get a load of these wonderful WEG medallions! I came across the official medallion website of the 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games, and was stunned how beautiful they are.
The polo season is essentially over. Other than one more tournament in Terengganu after Raya, and a few club cups, it is basically club chukkas for those who haven’t yet sent their horses out for a spell.
