Pardubice Update

After qualifying at Warwick it was full steam ahead last Thursday to get Lambro out to Czech. He came out of the race well and was declared on Friday morning for the Pardubice, he had a nice hack around the village and seemed really perky.
 
On Saturday morning Mark Grant came in to give him a little pop over a small double in the school, more than anything doing little things like this has kept his eye in and helped keep him nice and fresh.



Tom Fillery and Pea Wallace arrived at 4am on Sunday morning to load Lambro up for is voyage to the Czech. By 4pm on Sunday the three of them had made it safely to Colonge Racecourse in Germany for their first night stop over.
 
Today they have travel down through Germany to a place called Neumarkt! Tomorrow is the last leg of the journey through Czech to arrive at the racecourse at about midday. Reports are that he has been an absolute gentlemen travelling like an old pro and eating and drinking well.
 
Mark and I are travelling out on Thursday evening so that we are able to school him over some of the fences on Friday morning, the bigger hedges wont be jumped but it is a good opportunity to jump some of the drops and banks.
 
On the non horse side of the trip Rose has been busy in the office planning the logistics for the owners - most importantly where the best places are to eat and drink!
