Emilie & Asterix - Sandnes 12th September 2009

We finally had to do it... sell Asterix that is. Although we're sad that he's no longer ours, we're so happy that he's gone to such a good owner and a super little rider (who is only eight and a half years old).

This video was taken at Sandnes and Jaeren Rideklubb and shows Emilie and Asterix taking part in a simple Clear Round competition over 80cm.

Fantastic round Emilie - super riding! And good luck in the future with the boy!

Er det asterix nye eier ?

[TommyTheHorse]

Hei DennisogAstrid - ja Emilie er Asterix nye eier

[btaykaters]

is this a Halfinger cross or pure? We have one at my barn who is a Halflinger cross QH...he moves a lot like this guy, same swishy tail throughtout the ride, very forward, lovely mover,etc...

[TommyTheHorse]

Hi btaykaters - Asterix is a pure Haflinger. We always know when he isn't happy during a round because his tail doesn't swish so much.

NOOOOOO i luved asterix why why :(

[TommyTheHorse]

hi cocomango - my daughter Rachel was getting too big for Asterix and she can't compete on him after 2009 anyway. In addition, there was no way that we can look after four horses properly so it seemed better to let Asterix go to a rider who can benefit from his experience in the ring.

Emilie is just perfect for Asterix and we'll still see a lot of him as they will train at our club and will (hopefully) take part in plenty of competitions.

Sorry to hear you had to let him go, but at least you, and all your subbers, can see that he has a loving family who are going to look after him for a very long time.
