Congratulation! “Sanshaawes” is invited to take part in the World Cup! Well done, The owner, the trainer and the World cup feel like a deja vue. Last time it was Oldlands “Lucky Find” we were watching in the World Cup, only at the old course and with a different rider. It is so wonderful for our horse and our country,
thank you to the team,
Barbara Sanne,( the excited breeder)
Good luck Barbara and your team. Its one heck of an achievement.
Three horses at least from the Hemel n Aarde valley. Remember Jay Peg from across the way too.
Enjoy and be merry.
