Winter Training.




For those of us who live in the colder areas of the world winter training is a special challenge. The horses which are not in training enjoy the cold weather with their winter coats protecting them. When in training horses have to be carefully cooled out and blanketed after work.

In the Chrismas season Martha had the opportunity to ride Zenosa (the chestnut on the right). She is four year old and has had one foal by Lord Sinclair. As she is back in foal to Lord Sinclair this is the end of her training for this year. She has been with Cindy Matheson (on the right) for the last two months for training.

Zenosa is by Tango out of a Purioso mare. Tango is a Jazz/ Contango son which is currently winning in Holland at PSG.
