welcome

Nel salutarvi, in questa occasione, provo una strana emozione, ci conosciamo da anni oramai eppure mi sembra un esordio a tutti gli effetti. Per alcuni aspetti lo è, anche se in realtà io sono a “casa”, una casa che non ho mai - ne mai potrei – abbandonare; il cavallo arabo è la mia vita. Quindi eccoci qui, ad un primo numero che non è altro che il continuus di un meraviglioso viaggio intrapreso molti anni fa’ e del quale non posso più fare a meno. Ho sempre creduto che la pluralità di informazione non possa che far bene in tutti i settori, credo che vedere le stesse cose da più punti di vista porti a maggiori riflessioni e quindi a scelte più consone, credo che dare spazio a tutti faccia il bene di tutti, credo che più si è e meglio si è spinti a fare. E poi voglio considerare l’aspetto più rilevante, la passione, che cozza contro qualsiasi logica di mercato. Per me la passione ha sempre avuto il sopravvento, l’amore per il cavallo arabo fa’ sembrare un gioco qualsiasi difficoltà, il tributo verso un meraviglioso amico che sa’ volare senza ali vale più di qualsiasi stanchezza, senza passione non c’è emozione, senza emozione non c’è amore, senza amore non si vive una vita piena ne si può davvero apprezzare il cavallo arabo. Questo è lo spirito con cui nasce l’Arabian Horse Journal, ritrovare l’emozione di guardare il cavallo arabo per quello che è il suo vero ruolo e ricordare che non è il premio o il trofeo il centro gravitazionale, ma chi ha deciso di regalarcelo in quell’occasione; no, non parlo delle giurie, ma di quel meraviglioso essere che quando entra nella tua vita non ne esce più.Tutto passa e cambia, lui rimane per sempre, come il vero grande amore. In questo primo numero troverete interviste, reportage delle competizioni che si son tenute sin’ora, informazione, endurance, tutto quello che gravita attorno al mondo del p.s.a. e poi è il periodo in cui si entra nel vivo della stagione agonistica e delle nascite, quale miglior periodo per iniziare questa nuova avventura; insieme! Buona lettura a tutti

In greeting You this time I am feeling a special emotion, we have known each other for so many years, yet it feels like the first time. Under certain respects in fact it is, even if in reality I am “at home”, a home I never did – nor could – relinquish: the Arabian Horse is my Life.And so here we are, with a first issue which is nothing else than a continuation of a wonderful journey I began many years ago, a journey I cannot any more do without. I have always been convinced that plurality of information can only be beneficial in any sector, I believe that looking at reality from many points of view favours better reasoning and therefore better choices, I think that giving space to everybody will be to everybody’s benefit, it’s my opinion that the more voices we have, the better the result of our efforts will be.And in any case I want to consider the most important aspect, passion, which will happily collide against any market logic and considerations. For me Passion has always been first and foremost, love for the Arabian Horse makes a joke of any difficulty, a tribute to that marvellous Friend who can fly without wings is always stronger than any fatigue, if there is no emotion there is no love, and without love one cannot live a full life, nor really appreciate the Arabian Horse.This is the spirit that has spawned this Arabian Horse Journal (I do hope Friends will call it AHJ), looking at the Arabian horse in its true role and remembering that the true centre of gravity is not the prize or the trophy, but the person who decided to make a gift of it for us ; and no, I’m not talking about judges and juries, I’m talking about that marvellous being that once inside your life never leaves it.“Panta rei” as the Greeks used to say,“Everything passes” and changes, he stays forever, as true love does. In this first issue you will find interviews, reports of the competitions held so far, information, endurance, anything and everything gravitating around the purebred Arabian and after all it is the period during which we enter the heart of agonistic (and births) season, what better period to start a new adventure such as this? Together, of course! Enjoy the reading!

Nel fine settimana tra il 17 e 18 aprile scorsi, si è tenuto, nella

celebre ed oramai storica sede del Parco delle Versiliana a Marina di

Pietrasanta, il concorso di classe “C”, quest’anno divenuto Interna

zionale, di morfologia oltre ad altri eventi agonistici, sempre legati

al cavallo, promossi dal Comune di Pietrasanta, dall’Assessorato

allo Sport ed al Turismo con il patrocinio della Regione Toscana e

della provincia di Lucca. Molteplici e di spessore le iniziative che

hanno animato questa bella due giorni e prestigiosi gli ospiti che

hanno partecipato a conferenze, esposizioni, premiazioni.

Ben organizzato dal simpatico e disponibile Luciano Borzonasca

che non si è risparmiato per rendere piacevole una manifestazione

davvero ben riuscita, nonostante la pioggia copiosa del sabato che

non ha, comunque, fermato cavalli, handlers ed appassionati, dispo-

The Class C Event was held on April 17th and 18th in the

renowned and historic place in Parco della Versiliana in Ma

rina di Pietrasanta, where Comune di Pietrasanta, Assesso

rato allo Sport e al Turismo with the patronage of Regione

Toscana and Provincia di Lucca sponsored it. The Event is

classified as an International Show since this year and houses

Morphology and other agonistic disciplines. Many important

initiatives enlivened the amazing show and prestigious guests

joined the conferences, exhibitions and prizes giving.

The Event was organized by Mr Luciano Borzonasca, who

was nice and helpful as usual and made the pleasant event a

real success, despite hard rains on Saturday that didn’t di

scourage horses and handlers, as a matter of fact many afi

sti a patirne le conseguenze pur di ammirare il sempre affascinante

spettacolo che il cavallo arabo sa offrire come nessun altro. Buona

l’affluenza, quindi, di operatori del settore e pubblico e buona la

qualità dei cavalli presentati in concorso. Al termine della gara, il

sabato, è stata organizzata una serata di gala nel famoso locale Twiga

a testimonianza di quanto la vocazione per la tradizione e quella più

modaiola delle serate in riviera trovino il giusto connubio a Marina

di Pietrasanta, cittadina che offre più spunti e che sa’ unire cultura

a mondanità.

I giudici designati per l’occasione erano la sig.ra Titti Gagliani,

giudice internazionale, il sig. Cristian Moschini ed il sig. Ferdinand

Schwestermann dalla Svizzera. Non sempre i loro giudizi sono stati

in linea ma alla fine hanno vinto i cavalli che meglio si sono espressi,

cionados bore the inclement weather to admire the beautiful

show that only the amazing Arabian Horses are able to offer.

The event had a good flow of people and operators, and the

quality of the horses presented was really good. On Saturday,

at the end of the show, a gala evening was organized at the

famous Twiga nightclub, proving that Marina di Pietrasanta

merged well tradition and fashion, thanks to its amazing cul

tural sites and fashionable places.

Mrs Titti Gagliani, International Judge, Mr Cristian Mo

schini and Mr Ferdinand Schwestermann, from Switzerland,

were the judges appointed for this show. The judgements we

ren’t always in accordance but, in the end, the best horses

won in every category. The feeling was good, more similar to

anche se la pioggia del sabato pomeriggio non ha certo avvantaggia

to alcune categorie. Questo ha reso l’atmosfera dell’intera manife

stazione quella di un po’ di anni fa’, tutti sostanzialmente contenti,

poche polemiche, spirito di collaborazione tra i vari concorrenti,

davvero un toccasana per manifestazioni agonistiche quali quelle

del p.s.a., che motiva gli operatori del settore che, nonostante la

crisi, ci mettono l’anima affinché la loro passione ed il loro lavoro

vengano premiati come si deve. Questo atteggiamento non potrà

far che bene al nostro settore, a quanti lo osservano dall’esterno,

a quanti gli si accostano per la prima volta. Ottimo, come sempre,

il lavoro svolto dallo staff ANICA, rappresentato dal sig. Pierluigi

Rota, sempre disponibile, dalla sig.ra Mirjam Boschini che si è as

sunta l’onere di fare anche da speaker della manifestazione e dal sig.

Massimiliano Moser, in qualità di addetto stampa.

Lo show ha avuto inizio il sabato mattina con le categorie dei

puledri terminando con le fattrici. La caratteristica comune era la

the shows of some years ago: the less controversies and the

great spirit of cooperation between the competitors were a

real panacea for equestrian world and especially for Arabian

Horse Shows. Despite the global crisis, this feeling encoura

ged the operators who dedicate their lives and their efforts

to this sport. Certainly, this is the right behaviour for our

sector and it could help neophytes to approach our world.

Anica Staff, represented by Mr Pierluigi Rota, Mrs Mirjian

Boschini, who also made the speaker at the Show, and the

Press Office Massimiliano Moser all did a great job.

The show began on Saturday morning with Foals Catego

ries and ended in the afternoon with Mare category. As pre

viously said, the good quality and quantity of competitors

was the main feature of this show. No Colts foals but four

beautiful fillies were enrolled in Futurity category. *Etiopia

buona qualità ed il buon numero di partecipanti, come dicevamo.

Per i futurity è stata disputata solo quella delle femmine che ha

messo in campo quattro belle esponenti. Tra tutte ha primeggiato

*Etiopia El Aziz (FS Eternal Flame x Eritrea El Aziz) allevata e di

proprietà del sig. Giampaolo Gubbiotti e presentata da Paolo Ca

pecci mentre al secondo posto si è attestata *Free Franca (Mundher

Al Shaqab x Basma) allevata e di proprietà della GE.MAR. srl e

presentata da Giacomo Capacci.

La giornata di domenica si è accesa di un caldo sole e tanta adre

nalina per la disputa in campo degli stalloni e, dopo la pausa pran

zo, lo svolgimento del Campionato che ha preso inizio nel primo

pomeriggio. Malgrado l’intensa pioggia e le gare di Barrel Racing

e Penning svolte il giorno prima, il campo era in buone condizioni

e la gara si è resa subito interessante. Nel pomeriggio la tensio

ne ha anticipato di poco la grande emozione data dall’inizio del

campionato finale che ha riservato qualche sorpresa ma che, alla

by Mr Giampaolo Gubbiotti and presented by Paolo Capecci

gained the first place, whilst the second position went to

*Free Franca (Mundher Al Shaqab x Basma), bred and owned

by GE.MAR and presented by Giacomo Capacci.

On Sunday, the sun rose in the sky and the waiting for

stallion classes and for Championship thrilled everyone. The

Show ring resisted the rains, Barrel Racing and Team Pen

ning contests on Saturday and was in good condition. The

Show kept a high level of interest throughout both days. In

the afternoon, operators and aficionados were really excited

about the Final Championship, that kept some surprises, but,

in the end, everybody agreed with the judgements. For it,

we have to thank the experience of the judges that made all

the difference.

As usual, the Final Championship gives three medals to

the first three positions. For fillies, the gold medal went to

Per questo dobbiamo ricordare

il buon lavoro fatto dalla terna

Arabian SAH I n ter v iew

Arabian Show Training Centre

Nel panorama internazionale il nome “Oberti” è ora

mai una realtà consolidata da tempo, quanti frequentano,

ed amano, il mondo dell’arabo da morfologia, associano

questo nome con gli aggettivi “esperienza”, “professiona

lità”, “disponibilità”, e non potrebbe che essere così visto

che prima papà Gilberto e dopo il figlio Luca, hanno dato

vita e fatto diventare una realtà di spicco il loro centro

di addestramento, il rinomato Arabian Show Training, in

quel di Dalmine. La storia di questo centro è cosa nota,

prima la grande passione di Gilberto che instrada il figlio,

Luca, in questo mondo fatto di grandi soddisfazioni ma

anche di lavoro, fatica, impegno, oneri che si riesce a

sopportare negli anni solo se mossi da grande passione.

Questa è una delle peculiarità di questo Centro, ma altri

sono gli aspetti che ti fanno apprezzare Luca Oberti, la

sua semplicità, la grande disponibilità, il sorriso perenne

In the international panorama, the “Oberti” name has

already been a concrete reality for many years, so much

so that all those who move in, and love, the world of

Arabian show horses, do associate this name with the

words “experience”, “professionality” and “helpfulness”.

It could not be otherwise, in view of how Dad Gilberto

first and son Luca later have created and given excellent

body to their Training Centre, the renowned Arabian

Show Training, in the Dalmine neighborhood. The hi

story of this Centre is widely known, starting with the

great passion which moved Gilberto, who in turn gui

ded Luca on the same path, in this world of ours rich of

satisfaction, but also of hard work, labour and personal

involvement, a price one can endure at length only if

moved by real passion. This is just one of this Centre

distinctive characteristics, many more are Luca Oberti’s


Show Traanche nelle “giornate no”, doti non sempre riscontrabile

in generale nelle persone.

Le tante esperienze professionali e gli importanti ri

sultati ottenuti negli anni, non hanno scalfito, in Luca,

queste sue caratteristiche, ed è anche per questo che è

sempre un piacere incontrarlo:

Luca Oberti

endearing traits, his down-to-earth attitude, his readi

ness to help, his perennial smile even on “no-no days”,

qualities not often traceable in just anybody.

His extensive professional experience and all the po

sitive achievements collected in the course of time, have

not in the least affected Luca’s personality traits, and this


AHJ: A distanza di tempo facciamo visita al

tuo nuovo centro qui a Dalmine, e siamo colpiti

dalla serenità dei cavalli anche quelli prossimi

agli show e quindi sottoposti alla preparazione

di routine, hai un segreto?

L.O.: non si tratta di un vero e proprio segreto, è sempli

cemente un’alternanza di tipologie di lavoro che permette

all’animale, anche dopo l’allenamento quotidiano, di potersi

rilassare senza essere sottoposto a ulteriori stress, il modo mi

gliore per poterlo fare è semplicemente lasciare che il resto della

giornata il cavallo faccia” il cavallo” ….

is one more reason why it is always such a pleasure to

meet him:

AHJ: After quite some time we are visiting

your new Centre in Dalmine and we are ama

zed at how serene and untroubled the horses

appear, even on the eve of a show, when they

are certainly undergoing routine preparation,

what is your secret?

L.O.: It isn’t a real secret, we simply alternate several types of

work to allow the animal, even after the daily routine, to relax


Show TraLuca Oberti

AHJ: Non “tedieremo” i nostri lettori con le

tue esperienze passate, gli anni a stretto con

tatto con Michael Byatt, la collaborazione con

Frank Sponle, l’esperienza con l’Al Shaqab

Stud, con l’allevamento Ses Planes di Marieta

Salas, con allevatori del Kuwait, dell’Egitto e

via discorrendo, non perché poco importanti

ma piuttosto perché già note ai più; piuttosto

parliamo di futuro, quali sono i tuoi program

mi per quel che verrà?

L.O.: come tu ben sai nel mio lavoro è molto diffi cile pro

without being submitted to further stress; the best way to achieve

this is to let the horse just “be a horse” for the rest of the day…

AHJ: We don’t want to bore readers with a

detailed account of your past experience, the

years you spent working closely with Micha

el Byatt, your cooperation with Frank Spon

le, your stint with Al Shaqab Stud or with the

breeder Marieta Salas’s Ses Planes, or the many

Kuwaiti and Egyptian breeders and so on, and

not because they are not important, but becau

se most readers already will know them. Let’s

grammare, comunque, potendo scegliere, mi piacerebbe avere

la possibilità di ampliare il giro di clientela nel Middle East

potendo così visitare meglio gli Stati simbolo del cavallo arabo,

riuscendo tuttavia a mantenere il giusto numero e la buona

qualità di cavalli che attualmente gestisco nella mia scuderia.

Dimenticavo una cosa molto importante: il mio, e non solo

mio, più grande augurio è che gli show possano tornare ad es

sere occasioni, oltre che di prestigio, anche di corretto diverti

mento per tutti!!!!

AHJ: Parlaci un po’ della tua struttura, come

è organizzato il tuo centro?

L.O.: l’Arabian Show Training offre quaranta box, comprese

due ampie sala parto, un campo da lavoro in sabbia, una gio

stra di sgambatura coperta, due lavaggi e circa 15 mila mq di

paddock in erba.

Oltre a ciò un travaglio e un manichino a disposizione del

dr. Dolci che ci assiste da più di venti anni per le fecondazioni,

i prelievi, gli embrio transfert e da quest’anno anche per il

congelamento del seme.

AHJ: Quanti e quali stalloni operano nel tuo

centro?

L.O.: in scuderia al momento ospito: *Alakazam B, *Bashir

Al Gaug, *Ebshak Asmir, *Ajmal Sinan, *OR Walmar e ulti

mo arrivato *Safir Al Rayyan.Vorrei però sottolineare anche

*Frasera Ramses Shah, *Shahil, *Laheeb Al Nasser, *TS Apolo,

*RFI Farid e *Ajman Moniscione che, pur non essendo al mo

mento ospiti in scuderia, mi sento di nominare non solo per

dovere, ma soprattutto per piacere!

AHJ: I tuoi ultimi risultati parlano chiaro in

merito all’impegno che metti nella preparazio

ne dei soggetti che porti in campo, hai vinto il

Campionato Italiano prima con *Frasera Ram

ses Shah dell’allevamento La Frasera, poi con

*TS Apolo e con *RFI Farid con il quale hai

talk about the future, what are your plans for

the coming period?

L.O.: As you know, in my job it is rather diffi cult to make

programmes, but if I could choose I’d like to enlarge my clientele

in the Middle East, so as to better be able to visit the States that

constitute a veritable symbol of the Arabian horse, while at the

same time keeping the correct number and the right quality

level of the horses present in my stables.

One more thing, and an important one: my most ardent wish

(and also many others’) is that shows return to be occasions not just

of prestige, but also of correct and fair enjoyment for everyone!

AHJ:Tell us about your infrastructure, how is

your Centre organized?

L.O.:Arabian Show Training offers fourty stalls, including two

large foaling boxes, a sand working ring, a covered walker, two

washers and about 15 thousand square metres of grass paddocks.

In addition to all that, we have stocks to handle the mares

and a dummy for the stallions, for the use of Dr. Dolci, our

Veterinarian, who for over twenty years has taken care for us

of semen collection, A.I. with fresh and frozen semen, embryo

transfer and, as from this year, also freezing of semen

AHJ: How many stallions do you have in your

Centre? What are their names?

L.O.: In our stables at the moment we have: ALAKAZAM

B, BASHIR AL GAUG, EBSHAK ASMIR, AJMAL SINAN, OR

WALMAR and the last-arrived SAFIR AL RAYYAN. I would like

to mention also FRASERA RAMSES SHAH, SHAHIL, LAHE

EB AL NASSER,TS APOLO, RFI FARID and AJMAN MONI

SCIONE, even though they are not with us at the moment, not

out of duty, but for the immense pleasure they gave me.

AHJ: Your latest achievements speak volu

mes about your commitment to preparing the

exhibits you take to the show ring. As an exam

ple you won the Italian Championships, first


Show Tra

fatto anche primo di categoria allo show or

ganizzato in Arabia Saudita dall’Al Khalediah,

entrambi soggetti dell’Aretusa Arabians, hai

vinto in Sicilia innumerevoli titoli tra cui Cam

pionato e Best in Show con *Alima Moniscione

sempre dell’Aretusa Arabians, hai fatto Riserva

a Boario con la bella *Ardesia Moniscione del

sig. Moretti, come gestisci la preparazione di

un soggetto da show e, soprattutto, stabilisci

metodi diversi in base ai differenti cavalli o il

metodo è, bene o male, simile?

L.O.:Avendo ogni cavallo una sua definita personalità, i me

todi devono differenziarsi a seconda del soggetto, nonostante la

base del lavoro sia bene o male simile, nozione fondamentale

per un buon trainer sta proprio nel riuscire a creare un piano

with *Frasera Ramses Shah from the breeders

La Frasera, then with *TS Apolo and *RFI Fa

rid.This last was also first in his category at the

show Al Khalediah organized in Saudi Arabia.

Both *Frasera Ramses Shah and *RFI Farid are

from Aretusa Arabians, and you have also won

several titles in Sicily, like the Championship

and Best in Show with *Alima Moniscione, also

from Aretusa Arabians, and you were Reserve

Champion in Boario with Mr. Moretti’s splen

di lavoro personalizzato. Ho comunque potuto sperimentare che

un cavallo, pur nelle migliori condizioni fisiche, ha soprattutto

bisogno di un buon equilibrio psichico per poter fare un ottimo

show e quindi vincerlo;

AHJ: Ti piace ancora andare in show? Non

è una domanda casuale, sappiamo quanto sia

difficile in molti frangenti gestire le proprie e

le altrui tensioni che, ultimamente, sembrano

aumentate…

L.O.: la risposta è: sì! Non ne potrei fare a meno, l’adrenalina

che provo prima di ogni gara è qualcosa di meravigliosamente sti

molante che sovrasta qualsiasi tensione, soprattutto quella altrui!

Se poi i risultati sono ottimi, lascio a te la giusta deduzione!

therefore have to differentiate for each subject, although the basis

for our work is always quite similar, the fundamental principle for

a good trainer is in fact creating a custom training schedule.

From my experience however I learned that a horse, even one

in best physical conditions, needs above all good psycological

equilibrium to do an excellent show and therefor win it.

AHJ: Do you still like participating to shows?

This is not a random question, we all know how

difficult it can be at times managing both one’s

own and others’ psychological tension and this

last appears to have increased lately…

L.O.:The answer is a definite and resounding YES! Yes! I

couldn’t live without it, the adrenaline rush I feel just before

every show is a marvellous stimulus that overcomes any tension,

including other people’s. And if the results are extraordinary, I

leave all deductions to you!

AHJ: If you could, what would you change in

competitions?

L.O.: I have no shortage of ideas, but I’m afraid this is not

per giudicare i cavalli, ma che ci si ritagliasse del tempo per

incrementare la passione ed il nostro business.

quite practicable, that is our shows should not last just the time

Teocolo, il greco, che nel 735 A.C. aveva

raggiunto la baia ben protetta di Naxos

per poi partire alla conquista dell’isola.

Questa meravigliosa baia ha oggi invece

prestato la sua cornice per l’incontro a

cui hanno partecipato imminenti figure

del governo locale siciliano con un’am

pia copertura della stampa nazionale.

Questa baia è stata la culla della prima

civiltà mediterranea svolgendo un ruolo

chiave nel l’incontro tra mondo arabo ed

europeo. Ancora oggi la Sicilia presenta

forti segni di influenza araba; ad iniziare

dai suoi siti archeologici e dalla ricchez

za delle forme e degli stili architettonici

che si offrono numerosi all’occhio del

visitatore.

Per quanto attiene la storia del cavallo

arabo in Sicilia, è ormai noto che intorno

al 840 gli invasori arabi conquistarono

l’isola scacciando i Bizantini ed insedian

dosi fino alla fine del 13° secolo. I famosi

e veloci destrieri che li aveva visti domi

nare su queste terre furono incrementati

da una notevole importazione di cavalli

dalle terre natie.

Non ci meraviglia che I siciliani abbia

no poi utilizzato questa “arma miracolo-

sa” per migliorare i propri cavalli. Tale

pratica è infatti alla base di ogni forma

di allevamento equino, ossia ricorrere

all’ibridazione per migliorare sia la pre

stazione che la bellezza. In Sicilia si pos

sono trovare ancora oggi “arabi orien

tali” che testimoniano queste antiche

pratiche. Si tratta, in poche parole, di

una sorta di codice genetico iscritto nel

sangue siciliano che sembra poter spie

the Islamic Cavalry reached the bay of

Naxos, by ship – just like Teocles the

Greek before them, using the well-pro

tected bay of Naxos in 735 BC to anchor

there, and conquer Sicily. This wonder

ful location in Sicily (which drew the at

tention of national press and media and

attracted the presence of leading figures

from the Sicily local government) was

a remarkable setting for the meetings.

Indeed this Sicilian location, which was

an original centre of the early Mediter

ranean civilisation, played a key role in

the past, connecting Arab and European

worlds. There remains today many signs

of the Arab migration to Sicily . This can

be seen in the archaeological sites and in

the wide range of architectural patterns

and forms which can be seen across the

landscape.

As to the history of Arabian horses in

Sicily, it is well established that around

840 AC, Arabian invaders spread throu

ghout Sicily, expelled the Byzantines, and

settled here almost until the end of the

13th century– and they imported a great

number of Arabian horses as replacements

for their own fast-footed and substantial

cavalry units. Not surprisingly Sicily’s po

pulation subsequently used this “miracle

weapon” in their breeding, improving the

indigenous stock of horses that way – after

all, this idea underpins the globe-spanning

idea in horse breeding, which is to use hy

bridization in order to achieve more per

formance and beauty, and there are “orien

tal Arabians” in Sicily up to this day who

date back to those mating in ancient times.

Who knows – maybe this idea is still alive

in the genetic code of Sicily’s people to

day – since there was such an enormous

interest in and fascination with this first

viare un dialogo costruttivo su così tanti argomenti e questioni

che in una prima fase ci si è visti costretti a selezionare.. L’alle

vamento di cavalli arabi ha oramai acquisito una natura globale

e per questo motivo l’obiettivo principale della conferenza è

stato quello di incoraggiare un nuovo dialogo tra gli allevatori

provenienti sia da oriente che occidente sottolineando il pro

prio comun denominatore tra passato e presente.

La rapida globalizzazione dell’allevamento, con cavalli arabi

allevati un po’ in tutto il mondo, ha creato una nuova dinami

ca: meno romanticismo e maggiore presenza di mass media,

mercato e denaro con il risultato di un cambiamento di sta

tus e di fortuna dei migliori allevamenti al mondo. Si aprono

però anche molte nuove opportunità ed alcuni si oppongono

alla iper-industrializzazione ed ai meri aspetti commerciali

enfatizzando invece - con nuovo fervore - la speciale qualità

on the changes which are occurring in the world of horses.

This conference in Naxos demonstrated the value of such an

event allowing breeders, owners, and patrons of Arabian hor

ses to enter into constructive dialogue with each other. Indeed

there were so many issues, concerns and topics to be discussed

that the initial planning stage inevitably required pre-selection

and narrowing down of the scope. Given that the breeding of

Arabian horses now exists in a global frame, the primary aim

of the conference had to be one of encouraging collaboration

and creating new dialogues between breeders from Orient and

Occident as well as to highlight the common denominators,

past and present.

The rapid globalisation of breeding, with Arabians bred all

over the world has given rise to new dynamics, there is less

romanticism, there is a greater presence of media, markets and

della “relazione con il cavallo”. Si delinea una chiara tenden

za a sostenere la valenza “della piccola dimensione” (small is

beautiful). Ed infine, in tempi di crisi e di conflitti globali,

il dialogo di collaborazione “transfrontaliera” nel mondo del

cavallo arabo mostra la possibilità di nuove forme di parteci

pazione e di relazione.

Con questi fattori in mente la conferenza ha aperto I batten

ti con gli interventi di due “allevatori di fama mondiale” Judith

Forbes (US/Qatar) giudice e fondatrice della ANSATA STUD e

Hans Joachim Nagel (Brema, Germania) fondatore dell’alleva

mento Katharinenhof e Presidente della WAHO.

money, and as a result there is change in the status and fortu

nes of the best known studs across the world. There are also

many new opportunities for fresh perspectives, some oppose

the over-industrialisation and presence of commercial factors,

emphasising instead with new fervour the special quality of the

‘relationship with the horse’. Likewise there is a visible move to

maintaining a ‘small is beautiful’ approach. Finally in times of

global crises and conflicts the ‘cross-border’ collaborative dia

logues within this Arabian horse world shows the possibilities

for forms of participation and new relationships.

With these factors in mind the conference opened with kick

off statements from two ‘breeders of the century’ Judith Forbes

(US/Qatar) who is judge and founder of the ANSATA STUD

and Hans Joachim Nagel (Bremen, Germany) founder of the

CUP SHOW2010

Il quarto appuntamento di questo Show, che sta diventando ogni

anno sempre più prestigioso, si è tenuto dal 15 al 18 Aprile presso

il South Point Equestrian Centre a Las Vegas, e fin dall’inizio è ap

parso chiaro che sarebbe stato tra i migliori Show. Ci si dovrebbe

congratulare con gli organizzatori per le loro idee innovative e per i

miglioramenti che apportano di anno in anno. Per la prima volta, un

gruppo di cavalli è arrivato da oltreoceano e il Re del Marocco ha ge

nerosamente regalato il bellissimo e tradizionale corredo composto

da sella e finimenti tipici del Marocco per i vincitori della medaglia

d’Oro, mentre i vincitori dell’Argento sono stati omaggiati con delle

staffe d’oro. Ciò ha reso l’evento ancora più simile al Campionato del

Mondo che si tiene a Parigi, dove queste selle sono date in premio da

molti anni. I cavalli concorrevano per oltre 80.000 dollari in denaro

This was the fourth year for this increasingly prestigious

show held on April 15th to the 18th at South Point Equestrian

Centre in Las Vegas, and looked like it was going to be one of

the very best.The organisers should be congratulated for their

innovative ideas and yearly improvements.

For the first time a consignment of horses had come in

from overseas and the King of Morocco had generously pre

sented the beautiful, traditional Moroccan saddles and bri

dles for the Gold winners and gold stirrups for the Silver

winners. This made it look even more like the World Cham

pionships in Paris where these saddles have been presented

for many years. The horses were competing for over $80,000

in prize money and for the first time Yearling Championships


Escape Ibn Navarrone - Gold Medal Senior Stallion

e per la prima volta è stata aggiunta la categoria “Yearling Champion

ship”, per puledri e puledre di un anno.

Quest’anno ci sono stati molti più spettatori provenienti dalle

nazioni di tutto il mondo. Sicuramente Las Vegas è un favoloso luo

go di ritrovo, che offre tanto da fare e da vedere, in particolar modo

per i mariti e le mogli delle persone coinvolte nello Show. L’atmo

sfera che si respirava era euforica e piena di aspettative sia per gli

addetti ai lavori che per gli osservatori.Avere la struttura che ospita

lo show adiacente all’albergo è un altro grande vantaggio, come

avere vicini casinò e molti meravigliosi ristoranti, insomma, non

c’è mai un attimo per annoiarsi. C’era inoltre a disposizione una

navetta per prelevare gli ospiti dall’aeroporto.

Anche i giudici erano tutti di spessore internazionale. Quest’an

for colts and fillies were added. This year there were many

more spectators coming from numerous countries all over

the world.

Of course Las Vegas is a great venue as there is so much to

do and see, particularly for the non horsey husbands or wives.

The atmosphere was one of excitement and expectation for

exhibitors and observers alike. Having the show complex and

hotel attached is another great advantage, so with the casino

and many great restaurants in situ there is never a dull mo

ment. A shuttle bus is also on hand to take guests to the ‘Strip’

or the airport.

The Judges too were all very international. This year we

had Debby Cain (US), Murilo Bueno Kammer (Brazil), Pe

no sono stati chiamati Debby Cain (USA), Murilo Bueno Kammer

(Brasile), Peter Pond (Australia), Corky Sutton (USA), Marianne

Tengstedt (Danimarca) e Marie-Louise Van Wyk (Sud Africa). Il

punteggio partiva da 20, con i mezzi punti, ed il punteggio più alto

e più basso era scartato da ognuna delle sei categorie, per fornire

più imparzialità e per evitare punteggi politici. Le categorie erano

Tipo,Testa, Collo e Spalle, Dorso e Armonia, Arti e Piedi e Movi

mento. Il primo giorno sono state disputate le classi per Handlers

Amateur e per i Castroni e devo ammettere che molti di questi non

professionisti hanno presentato in maniera eccellente, sebbene fos

sero un poco intimiditi dal debutto nella cornice di Las Vegas.

Venerdì mattina alle 9.00 un gran numero di appassionati ha affol

lato l’area dello show per l’inizio delle classi di puledre e fattrici. Le

puledre di un anno sono state divise in quattro sezioni a seconda della

ter Pond (Australia), Corky Sutton (US), Marianne Tengstedt

(Denmark) and Marie-Louise van Wyk (South Africa).The sco

ring was out of 20 with half points and the highest and lowest

scores are removed for each of the six categories for fairness

and any chance of political scoring. The categories were, Type,

Head, Neck and Shoulder, Body and Topline, Legs and Feet

and Movement.

The first day were the classes for Amateur handlers and for

Geldings, and I have to say many of those amateurs did an

excellent job as it was a bit intimidating for those showing for

the first time in Las Vegas.

Friday morning at 9 am found enthusiasts wending their way

towards the area for the start of the days classes, which were

zeppe di puledre meravigliosamente belle e tipiche. La Sezione A, una

bellissima classe, è stata vinta dalla tipica puledra grigia Bettina MP

(WH Justice x Om El Belinda Estopa), con l’alto punteggio di 330,

allevata e di proprietà di Jon e Mindy Peters in USA.

La Sezione B era ancora più impressionante ed è stata vinta da

Saadiya CA (Justify x Lady Zoe Hadidi), una graziosa puledra saura

allevata e di proprietà di Daneisha Brazzle in USA.Anche la sezione

successiva era impressionante ed è stata vinta dalla meravigliosa pu

ledra, di proprietà di Luciano Cury dal Brasile, RD Marciena (QR

Marc x NW Siena Psyche) che, con dei genitori tanto famosi, non

stupisce abbia ottenuto 330,5. L’ultima sezione per le puledre di

un anno è stata vinta col punteggio di 328 dalla puledra dall’otti

mo movimento Kharalisa BPA (Khadraj NA x Rhapsody In Gold),

four sections by birthdate due to the large numbers entered.

These classes were filled with some stunningly beautiful and

typey fillies. Section A was a great class won by the very typey

grey filly Bettina MP (WH Justice x Om El Belinda Estopa)

with a high score of 330 and owned and bred by Jon & Mindy

Peters in the USA.

Section B was an even more impressive class won by Saadiya

CA (Justify x Lady Zoe Hadidi) a very pretty chestnut owned

and bred Daneisha Brazzle in the USA. The next section was

equally impressive and won by a very stunning filly owned by

Luciano Cury from Brazil RD Marciena (QR Marc x NW Sie

na Psyche) with such famous parents, it’s not surprising she

scored 330.5.

The final yearling section was won by the good moving

La classe successiva era quella delle fattrici dai sei agli otto anni.

Le prime quattro fattrici erano sicuramente impressionanti e la ca

tegoria è stata vinta dall’eterea grigia Gloria Apal (Psytadel x SA

Misha Apal) allevata in Belgio, acquistata di recente in America da

DST Arabians. Ritengo che una delle migliori classi di fattrici, con

tutte le concorrenti grigie, era la classe dai nove anni in su. C’è

un fascino particolare nelle cavalle grigie che le rende quasi eteree

ed è un tripudio per gli occhi, così inusuale in America, ma mol

to presenti in Europa. A vincere la categoria con 329,5 punti una

fattrice che ha vinto praticamente in tutto il mondo, la splendida

ed estremamente tipica Eagleridge Passionata (Sanadik E Shaklan x

Piver Oak Dimity). È stata inizialmente allevata in Australia e poi

acquistata da Ajamn Stud negli Emirati Arabi Uniti.

that many of these horses are still in the breeding department

at home. Winning the blue with 329.5 was the very typey, be

autiful headed Maraysia (Marwan Al Shaqab x Aysia) owned by

The next class was for mares of six to eight years old. The

top four mares were certainly impressive and it was won by

the ethereal grey Gloria Apal (Psytadel x SA Misha Apal) bred

in Belgium, but now owned by DST Arabians from the USA.

In my opinion one of the best mare classes with all grey

exhibits was the class for those of nine years and over.There is

just something about grey mares that appear as such an ethe

real sight and feast for the eyes-unusual in the USA, but often

seen in Europe. The wonderful, extremely typey winner-who

L’ultima classe della giornata era quella delle Brood Mares di

ogni età che dovevano aver già prodotto un puledro. La vincitrice,

con 325,5 punti, veniva dal Qatar, la bellissima e davvero tipica

*Negma Al Shaqab (Safir x Kajora), di proprietà di Al Shaqab Mem

Il tardo pomeriggio è stato utilizzato per prepararsi alla serata

di gala, diventata molto popolare negli ultimi Shows. Quest’anno

si è tenuto all’Encore-Wynn Night Club, ed è stato divertente per

i partecipanti.

La mattina successiva era il turno di tutti i “Ragazzi”, a partire

dalle tre sezioni dei puledri di un anno. Erano presenti alcuni sog

getti davvero strabilianti, di grande tipicità e movimento, insomma

ottimi stalloni in prospettiva. La Sezione A è stata vinta da Cavalli,

un affascinante figlio dell’US National Champion DAValentino per

Aspyn, di proprietà dell’americano Pegasus Arabians, con 327,5

has won all over the world was Eagleridge Passionata (Sanadik

is now from the Ajman Stud in the UAE with 329.5 points.

The final mare class was for Brood mares of any age who had

Member Qatar Foundation from Qatar was *Negma Al Shaqab

Following these classes in the late afternoon, everyone di

the last shows.This year it was held at the Encore-Wynn Night

The next morning was the turn of all the ‘Boys’, starting

with three sections of yearling colts.

There were some impressive entries with great type, move

punti. A vincere con un punteggio di 328 nella Sezione B è stato

SW Abraxas (Ever After NA x Midnight Pashahn), un puledro di

grande tipicità e presenza, allevato e di proprietà di Veronica e Greg

citore della Sezione C è stato un altro bel puledro, molto simile al

futuro. La categoria dei puledri di tre anni era una gran bella classe

con alcuni iscritti davvero meravigliosi. In testa a tutti si è posizio

nato un puledro che avevo già visto in precedenza e l’avevo trovato

strabiliante. Parlo di OFW Magic Wan (Marwan Al Shaqab x Magna

Prelude), allevato e di proprietà di Harold e Dolly Orr dall’Ameri

ca, che ha vinto col punteggio di 331.

Il tifo sugli spalti è aumentato con l’avvicinarsi delle classi degli

stalloni maturi, il pubblico aspettava con trepidazione di vedere al

cuni dei migliori stalloni presenti. Nella categoria dei quattro anni

erano sette gli iscritti. A vincere col punteggio di 329, è stato Om

El Al Azeem (Al Lahab x Om El Beneera), un affascinante e tipico

stallone con un eccellente movimento, allevato e di proprietà di

Om El Arab in America. Il vincitore della classe dei cinque anni è

stato un altro stallone dalla bellissima testa e dalla grande presenza

scenica, che ha emozionato con la sua esibizione. Stiamo parlando

dello stallone allevato e di proprietà di Robert e Dixie North, Ever

After NA (Sir Fames HBV x Entaicyng NA), che ha vinto la catego

ria col punteggio di 327.

La classe dai sei agli otto era una buona classe con alcuni stalloni

davvero eccellenti. Meritando il punteggio più alto per Tipo, e con un

futuro garantito come riproduttore, lo stallone di proprietà dell’ame

ricano Noel K Bosse, Art Dekko TT (Audacious PS x HC Amareea),

ha vinto la categoria in virtù del punteggio totale di 330,5.

La classe successiva degli stalloni dai nove agli undici anni è sem

brata fin dalle prime battute ciò che tutti aspettavano, dal momento

che molti americani non avevano mai visto il Campione del Mondo

Escape Ibn Navarrone (AS Sinans Pacha x Navarrone P), di proprie

tà di Ajman Stud dagli Emirati Arabi Uniti. Questo etereo e davvero

tipico stallone, dall’enorme presenza scenica, ha meritato il più alto

punteggio dello Show, ovvero 337 punti, con alcuni 20 sia per Tipo

che per Testa. Oltre ogni ragionevole dubbio, questo stallone è un

chiaro esempio di cavallo Arabo che ha vinto e vince ancora in tutto

il mondo. Solo due i partecipanti alla categoria successiva, quella

dai 12 anni in su. La categoria è stata vinta da Rushan (El Saleem

x Rullante) di Gary Dill Marlow dall’America, uno stallone che

rappresenta bene la linea Crabbet, che è stato Supreme British Na

tional Champion come puledro di un anno come lo fu la madre nel

1980 per le puledre che io stessa ho giudicato.

La domenica è stata dedicata al campionato. Prendendo ad

esempio l’Europa, è stato deciso di premiare con medaglie d’oro,

d’argento e di bronzo i vincitori, piuttosto che premiare solo il

Campione e la Riserva. Mi piace questa idea e sia le medaglie che

jor Love Affair) deservedly scored a very high 334.5 to win for

Robert & Dixie North Family Trust of the USA, a lovely colt

with a great future.

The three year old colts was a very good class with some

outstanding entries.Topping this one was a colt that I had seen

before and found very impressive. This was OFW Magic Wan

(Marwan Al Shaqab x Magna Prelude) he scored 331 owned

and bred by Harold & Dolly Orr for the USA.

The audience grew bigger for the mature stallion classes

with much anticipation to see some of the top stallions that

were entered. The four year olds had seven horses forward.

Winning with 329 points owned and bred by Om El Arab for

the USA was Om El Al Azeem (Al Lahab x Om El Beneera) a

lovely, typey stallion with excellent movement.

The winner of the class for five year old stallions was ano

ther lovely exhibit with a beautiful head and great presence.

This was Ever After NA (Sir Fames HBV x Entaicying NA)

scoring 327 for owner/breeders Robert and Dixie North of

the USA. The class for six to eight year olds was a good class

with some excellent stallions. Scoring high marks for type,

the winner was Art Dekko TT (Audacious PS x HC Amareea)

owned by Noel K Bosse for the USA his score was 330.5, he

has a great future as a breeding stallion.

The next class for stallions of nine to eleven years old

was the one that everyone seemed to be waiting for, since

many Americans had never seen the World Champion Escape

Ibn Navarrone (AS Sinans Pacha x Navarrone P). This very

ethereal, typey stallion with enormous presence scored the

highest score of the show for the Ajman Stud of the UAE

with 337 points including some 20s for type and head. This

certainly is an example of an Arabian who can win and has

won all over the world.

Only two entries were forward for the stallions aged twelve

years old. It was won by Rushan (El Saleem x Rullante) for

Gari Dill Marlow of the USA-a very correct Crabbet looking

stallion, whose dam I had judged as Foal Champion at the Bri

tish Nationals in 1980 and he himself had been Supreme Bri

tish National Champion as a yearling.

On Sunday the day was filled with the Championships. Ta

king an example from Europe, it was decided to award, Gold,

Silver and Bronze, rather than Champion & Reserve. I like this

idea and the garlands and awards were wonderful. During the

Il Supreme Championship per le Puledre di un anno era un colpo

d’occhio stupendo, con così tanti soggetti tra cui poter scegliere da

lasciare senza fiato, ognuna accolta da grandi applausi. Alla fine, la

medaglia d’Oro se l’è aggiudicata RD Marciena, quella d’Argento

Kharalisa BPA e quella di Bronzo Bettina MP. È stata quindi la volta

dei puledri di un anno, molti con ancora in corpo tantissima energia

per impressionare i giudici. La medaglia d’oro va a Cavalli, quella

d’Argento a Faconnable e quella di Bronzo a SW Abraxas.

Le fattrici giovani apparivano come una strabiliante collezione di

bellissime puledre e la decisione di premiare con la medaglia d’oro

Felicia RLC è stata più che unanime, mentre la medaglia d’Argento

se l’è aggiudicata RD Challs Angel. Il Bronzo è stato invece conqui

stato Om El Excella (Al Lahab x Om El Shaina).

A seguire gli stalloni giovani, con una lotta davvero serrata per due

di questi stalloni fuori dal comune. A spuntarla alla fine è El Chall

WR, che è stato premiato con l’Oro, mentre OFW Magic Wan vince

l’Argento. Il Bronzo è invece appannaggio di Troubador PA.

Le fattrici anziane erano semplicemente meravigliose, una splen

dida collezione di bellezza e tipicità tra le quali è stato davvero diffi

cile scegliere. Alla fine, Eagleridge Passionata, la fattrice allevata in

Australia, è stata insignita della medaglia d’Oro, *Negma Al Shaqab

di quella d’Argento e Gloria Apal di quella di Bronzo. Credo che

The Yearling filly Supreme Championship was an eyeful with

so many to choose from, each one getting great applause. Fi

nally the Gold went to RD Marciena, the Silver to Kharalisa

BPA and the Bronze to Bettina MP.

Next were the yearling colts, many still with plenty of ener

gy to show off to the judges. The Gold went to Cavalli, the

Silver to Faconnable and the Bronze to SW Abraxas.

The Junior mares were a stunning collection of beautiful

fillies and it was almost a unanimous decision to give the Gold

to Felicia RLC and the Silver to RD Challs Angel. The Bronze

went to Om El Excella (Al Lahab x Om El Shaina).

The Junior Stallions were in next with very close calls for

two of these outstanding colts.

However, El Chall WR was awarded the Gold with OFW Ma

gic Wan getting the Silver. The Bronze went to Troubadour PA.

The Senior mares were wonderful-a great collection of be

autiful, typey ladies from which it was very difficult to choose.

Finally, the Australian bred mare Eagleridge Passionata was an

nounced the Gold winner, with *Negma Al Shaqab the Silver

and the Bronze to Gloria Apal.

I think that most observers thought that the Senior Stal

lion Gold winner would be a foregone conclusion and it was.

OFW Magic Wan - Silver Medal Junior Stallion


molti tra il pubblico abbiano pensato che la gara per l’Oro per lo

Stallone Anziano sarebbe finita come la precedente, ed infatti così

è stato. Escape Ibn Navarrone ha spazzato via tutti i concorrenti

ed è andato dritto all’Oro, conquistando il titolo. Giustamente, ad

Art Dekko TT è stata assegnata la medaglia d’Argento, mentre Ever

After NA ha vinto il Bronzo,.

La Breeders Cup è meritatamente andata all’allevamento Om El

Arab di Sigi e Janina, che hanno allevato cavalli davvero speciali,

alcuni dei quali hanno eccelso in questo Show.

Lo Show è più bello di anno in anno e credo di potermi aspettare

cose ancora migliori l’anno prossimo. Questo è lo show più simile

a quelli che si disputano in Europa e in Medio Oriente e penso che

abbia iniziato a cambiare pelle, da semplice “spettacolo” ad evento

che mostra il gran fermento degli show dei cavalli arabi in USA.

I trainers americani sembrano divertirsi di più, stanno imparan

do a correre coi cavalli e non a costringerli a compiere movimenti

strattonandoli costantemente. Sebbene nessun sistema sia perfetto,

penso che il metodo di assegnazione dei punteggi con l’eliminazio

ne del punteggio più alto e più basso sia davvero ottimale. Spero di

vedere molti visitatori, americani e non il prossimo anno per poter

apprezzare il meglio dei cavalli arabi. Cosa potrebbe essere più di

vertente che uno show di cavalli arabi a Las Vegas?

Escape Ibn Navaronne swept all before him to gain the top

title. Art Dekko TT was a worthy Silver winner and so was the

Bronze winner Ever After NA.

The Breeders Cup was awarded to the very well deserved

Om El Arab for Sigi and Janina. They do breed very special

horses who excelled at this show.

This show goes from strength to strength and I was told to

expect even greater things next year.

It is the closest show to any in Europe or the Middle East

and I think that it has started to take away the hard stand up

as the ‘show’ and replace it with showing great movement at

US shows.

The US trainers seem to have more fun, are learning to run

with the horses and not restrict the movement by constantly

jerking on them. Although no system is perfect I do think that

the scoring system with the highest and lowest scores being

removed is as fair as you can get.

I hope to see many more overseas and American visitors

next year to watch some of the best Arabians on display. What

can be more fun than a horse show in Las Vegas ?

Travagliato

CavalliBy Norah Laney - photos by Nicoletta Abelli

La trentunesima edizione di “Travagliato Cavalli” non pote

va avere un riscontro migliore, i numeri di questa manifesta

zione, che accoglie in se spettacoli differenti e le più disparate

discipline equestri, anche in questa occasione non ha deluso le

aspettative malgrado il tempo non sia stato clemente, molto

pubblico ha affollato ogni padiglione, bancarella, arena, tribuna.

Davvero un’ottima risposta da operatori e pubblico, come pre

visto, anche per quel che riguarda il “nostro” ambito, Arabita

lia, il concorso internazionale di classe “B” e la settima edizione

dell’Egyptian Event.

L’organizzazione è stata appannaggio del sig. Fausto Scanzi

e dal sig. Mario Fermi, il comitato organizzativo era costituito

dall’Azienda Servizi Territoriali spa. Nel ruolo di ring Master

This 31st edition of the “Travagliato Cavalli” show couldn’t have

had a better welcome in terms of attendance; the figures regar

ding the show, which houses diverse spectacles and the full gamut

of equestrian disciplines, in this occasion too didn’t disappoint

expectations, as in spite of the poor weather a numerous public

crowded every pavillion, stall and stand. Excellent performance

indeed, as it had been forecast, even as far as “our” sector is con

cerned, Arabitalia, the international Class “B” Concourse, and the

seventh edition of the Egyptian Event.

The organization was taken care of by Messrs Fausto Scanzi and

Mario Fermi, while the Organizing Committee was constituted

of the company Azienda Servizi Territoriali Spa.The indefatiguable

ring-master was Ivo Ludi, whilst the Disciplinary Committee was

anche di speaker, che ha dovuto sobbarcarsi da sola l’onere di tre

competizioni aiutata dalla presenza del sig. Pierluigi Rota che ha

cercato di aiutare in ogni ambito.

Per quel che concerne la giuria dell’internazionale, quattro le

presenze che si sono alternate in campo, la sig.ra Renate Schibler

(CH), il dr. Abdelouahed Magoul (MAR), l’ing. Marco Pittaluga

(IT) ed il sig.Willy Poth (F).

apprezzato che sia stata adottata quella dei giochi olimpici, con

with the assistance of Mr. Sparapan. Precise and efficient as al

ways the ANICA Secretariat, in the person of Mrs. Marzia Alinovi,

who also served as speaker and had to single-handedly face three

competitions, helped by Mr. Pierluigi Rota, ready to help at every

turn.

le tre medaglie a dare ono

re ai campioni, ci saremmo

auspicati che si prendesse la

decisione di utilizzare tutti e

quattro i giudici in campo, evi

tando così quei malumori che

si sono manifestati ogni qual

volta venivano letti i punteggi

dei cavalli in gara, con giudi

zi che definire disarmonici è

puro eufemismo. Un 15, 16,

17 in arti o un 17, 18, 19 in

testa e collo possono lascia

re disorientati, e come dare

torto a quanti hanno espresso

pareri negativi in tal senso, la

distanza tra un 15 ed un 17 in

arti è la stessa che passa tra un

cavallo zoppo ed uno con arti

sani, non è poco.

In un momento in cui si

parla di crisi finanziaria, avere

iscrizioni importanti agli show

è un indice fondamentale, non

ci si può permettere che il tut

to venga vanificato dalla poca

esperienza di un giudice piut

tosto che da gusti differenti e

unhappy feelings that were voi

ced every time a horse score

was announced, with opinions

that we hardly can define as

harmonious. A score of 15, 16

and 17 for Legs and Feet or 17,

18 and 19 for Head and Neck

can leave onlookers puzzled,

and one can hardly blame those

who dissented on this line, the

distance between a 15 and a 17

is as much as there exists from

a lame horse to a healthy one.

In a moment when the finan

cial crisis is paramount in eve

rybody’s mind, having a good

numer of enrolments is a fun

damental parameter; nobody

can afford to have everything

put in jeopardy by an inexpe

rienced judge or simply by di

verging tastes. If this happens,

as it is bound to happen at ti

mes, it is an obligation for the

organizer to seek remedy to the

situation among the possible

alternatives, but these last will

be available only by preventing


qualora questo avvenga, come è normale che sia, è d’obbligo, per

l’organizzatore, porre rimedio con i mezzi che si hanno, e si han

no, prevenendo queste situazioni. Per non parlare poi del fatto

che, quest’anno, il “nostro” ring era adiacente a quello delle gare

di montato con classi di ragazzi e adulti che male si conciliavano

con i rumori dei sacchetti per far muovere i cavalli arabi; in breve

loro hanno rischiato di farsi del male, noi di morire di noia e si

lenzio per evitare problemi. Davvero una scelta assurda da tenere

in conto per le prossime edizioni. Per non parlare della musica

Western che si sovrapponeva alla musica prevista per il nostro

show, ma in questo caso forse è stata quasi una salvezza, ed i giudi

zi che si faceva fatica a sentire per l’alto volume dei “nostri vicini”.

A questo si è aggiunta la problematica della regola, corretta, di

such situations from developing in the first place.We also don’t like

to mention the fact that “our” ring was next to the one for riding

competitions, with classes of adults and youngsters, which were

disrupted by the noise of sand bags we use to excite the Arabians;

in short, they risked getting hurt, and we risked dying of boredom

and silence in order to avoid any problems. It was a really inconsi

derate choice, to be remembered (and avoided) for next editions.

Another problem area was the Country music that would usually

overcome both the musical accompanyment of our show (but in

this case it was perhaps a blessing in disguise) and the scoring, that

the high volume from our “neighbours” made practically impossible

to perceive. On top of all this the (quite correct) rule piled up of

avoiding extreme clipping of the horses, especially at the eyes, as

tends to acquire a life of their

tari, insomma delle scene che non vorremmo mai vedere. Quello

che fa’ più specie è che si è cercato di applicare una regola giusta

con criteri sbagliati e quindi alcuni esemplari tosati vecchia ma

niera sono poi stati esclusi, vedi l’ottimo *Ali Moniscione, cam

pione europeo e riserva campione ad Aachen 2008, mentre altri,

tosati allo stesso modo, hanno comunque preso parte alla gara.

Ancora una volta lo spirito della competizione, del sano agonismo

ha lasciato il posto all’approssimazione, dagli spalti non si è dav

vero capito molto di quello che stava avvenendo. Questo ci spiace

anche perché il cavallo arabo è passione ed armonia, quello che

noi umani spesso dimentichiamo.

Tornando alla gara, il campionato delle puledre ha laureato

all’unanimità Oro la splendida *Turchiya MPE (WH Justice x

Thee Rahiba), già campionessa italiana, presentata da Frank

is that the wrong criteria were used to try and apply a correct rule,

with the result that some horses clipped in the old fashion, such as

the wonderful *Ali Moniscione, European Champion and Reserve

Champion in Aachen 2008, were disqualified whilst other horses,

clipped in the same way, were included in the Final Championship.

Once again competitive spirit and fair battling have been replaced

by approximation, with not many spectators understanding much

of what was going on. This makes us especially sorry, because the

Arabian horse is the very symbol of passion and harmony, something

we humans often forget.

Coming back to the competition, in the Filly Championship the

Gold medal went unanimously to the splendid *Turchiya MPE

Judge Franco GrotteriaL’abbiamo conosciuto come allevatore, come

handler, da molti anni abbiamo imparato ad apprez

zarne le competenze, oggi lo incontriamo nella ve

ste di giudice, parliamo di un vero uomo di cavalli,

dalla grande esperienza e poliedricità, il sig. Franco

Grotteria, nome storico nell’ambiente del P.S.A.

Non potevamo farci sfuggire l’occasione di inter

vistarlo, anche perché, oltre al suo ruolo, Franco

è anche una persona carismatico, cordiale, sempre

disposto al dialogo, oltre ad essere un amico.

AHJ: Franco, ti abbiamo apprezzato ne

gli anni per le tue conoscenze allevatoriali,

proprietario di AG Nobel Arabians insieme a

tua moglie Ida Arsenault, per le tue presenta

zioni, molti anni fa, nei ring come presenta

tore, oggi ti ritroviamo sempre in campo ma

Over the years we have come to know him as a ca

pable breeder and handler, but in this interview we

meet him in his role as judge. The man we are spe

aking of is a true horseman, full of experience and

talent. His name is Mr. Franco Grotteria, a legend

in the Purebred Arabian horse industry.Given his

charismatic and cordial nature, along with his open

ness to discussion, we could not let this opportunity

to interview our friend Franco slip by.

AHJ: Franco, over the years, we have ap

preciated your horse breeding capabilities

as owner of AG Nobel Arabians, together

with your wife Ida Arsenault and for your

talented halter presentations in the ring in

the past. Today we see you in the ring once

again, but on the other side of the fence, this


anco Grodall’altra parte della barricata, in qualità di

giudice. Ci racconti com’è questa nuova espe

rienza?

FG: Mi viene molto naturale giudicare, in quanto, in

qualche modo, è qualcosa che ho sempre fatto. Ho sem

pre provato di scegliere scrupolosamente con razionalità, i

miei cavalli e quelli dei miei amici, con il criterio di essere

qualitativamente all’altezza di poter vincere negli show.

Avendo vissuto l’esperienza di vedere i propri cavalli inco

ronati sotto i riflettori varie volte e di sentire la pelle d’oca

per il senso di orgoglio quando suona il proprio inno nazio

nale, posso capire l’incredibile sensazione di gioia e soddi

sfazione, moltiplicato dal rush di adrenalina, che un vinci

tore possa sentire. Dunque dall’altra parte dalla barricata,

come giudice , sono onorato di poter contribuire a donare

questo tipo di emozioni agl’altri vincitori meritevoli.

AHJ: Inutile rimarcare la tua immensa

passione che ti ha portato a ricoprire ora

mai tutti i ruoli nell’ambito delle competi

zioni morfologiche, cosa ti ha spinto a rive

stire anche il ruolo di giudice?

FG: Sono stato incoraggiato da altri allevatori ad in

traprendere questa strada, in quanto è proprio questa

lunga esperienza , di circa 30 anni di allevamento e

show , che mi hanno qualificato, con un occhio obbiet

tivo di esprimere la mia opinione sui loro cavalli. Il

mio giudizio è di solito molto apprezzato, ma a volte

sono un po’ troppo “franco” (non per niente mi chiamo

Franco). Alla fine, è importante per un serio allevatore

accettare la realtà, al di là dell’affetto o dell’emozioni

che possono creare la cecità nel giudicare la qualità del

proprio allevamento.

AHJ: Entrando nello specifico del diffici

le ruolo di giudice, come sono influenzati i

tuoi giudizi? Sappiamo che sei un allevatore

Franco Grotteria

time as judge. Could you explain to us what

this new experience is like?

FG: I find it very natural, and in a way it is as if I

have been doing it all my life. I have always tried to

choose horses for myself and for my friends which possess

the necessary qualities to win in the ring. Having lived

the experience of seeing our own horses receive highest

honors under the spot light many times and feeling goose

bumps and a sense of pride at hearing my national anthem

played, I can understand the incredible sense of joy, sati

sfaction and the rush of adrenaline that a winner feels. As

a judge on the other side of the barricade I am honored to

be able to allow other worthy winners to experience this

type of emotion.

AHJ: We are all aware of the immense pas

sion that enabled you to participate in the

various roles of halter competitions, but

what convinced you to take on the role of

judge as well?

FG: I was encouraged by other breeders to take on this

responsibility. My thirty years of experience as a breeder

and trainer have qualified me to express my opinion of

horses in an objective way. My judgment is usually highly

regarded, but sometimes I can be a little bit too frank (my

name isn’t Franco for nothing). Overall it’s important

for serious breeders to accept reality, regardless of their

affection and emotions in judging the quality of their own

horses, which can cause them to be “barn blind”.

AHJ: Going into detail about the difficult

role of judging, how is your judging influen

ced? As a long-time breeder, how does your

experience help you or affect your judging

in the ring?

FG: My breeding experience permits me to view horses

with a critical eye to identify good possible breeding pro

112 113


da vecchia data, quanto ti aiuta o ti condi

ziona nel giudizio in campo?

FG: La mia esperienza allevatoriale mi porta a vedere i

soggetti con un occhio critico per individuare possibile buoni

riproduttori.Abbiamo sempre allevato con lo scopo di produrre

soggetti adatti per concorsi di morfologia, quindi ad ottenere il

“modello” ideale. Ci siamo concentrati maggiormente sul feno

tipo che sul genotipo del cavallo arabo. Non abbiamo canaliz

zato il nostro allevamento in una sola linea di sangue, ma ben

sì abbiamo tentato di accogliere i migliori attributi di tutte le

linee; la tipicità dei Puri Egiziani, il collo lungo e l’atleticità

dei Polacchi, la potenza e il movimento dei Russi ecc. Quindi

in veste di giudice, cerco il modello ideale, a prescindere dalla

linea di sangue di appartenenza.Apprezzo una buona presen

tazione e riconosco un ottimo condizionamento e preparazio

ne. Ma allo stesso tempo incoraggio i presentatori amatoriali e

proprietari che si dilettano e si divertano nel show ring, purché

sappiano controllare bene il cavallo, per la sicurezza di tutti.

AHJ: Come consideri il metodo di giudizio

sulla base del quale il punteggio più alto e

quello più basso vengono eliminati dal com

puto finale? Trovi che sia migliorativo rispetto

al metodo di giudizio tradizionale? Ti piace il

tipo di premiazione con le tre medaglie?

FG: Il metodo di eliminare i punteggi più alti e quelli

più bassi potrebbe essere buono se non condizionasse i

giudici nei loro giudizi. Ci vuole coraggio ad esprimere

un punteggio estremo, ma se viene sminuito essendo can

cellato, allora è futile.Trovo che il metodo di giudizio a

comparazione sia il migliore, soprattutto per le categorie

più numerose. Credo che sia importante che i giudici

prendano le proprie responsabilità per le loro scelte.

Credo che le tre medaglie: oro, argento e bronzo, sia

no un ottimo metodo per premiare più cavalli nel campo,

quindi più allevatori soddisfatti e più ampio il mercato di

cavalli riconosciuti.

spects. We have always bred with the aim of producing hor

ses apt for the show ring, therefore seeking the ideal “model”

or image of the Arabian horse. We have concentrated mostly

on the phenotype rather than the genotype of the Arabian

horse. We haven’t limited our breeding program to only

one bloodline or stain, but rather we have tried to obtain

the best attributes from various lines; the Straight Egyptian

type, the long neck and athletic versatility of the Polish, the

power and movement of the Russian. Consequently, as a

judge I look for the ideal “model”, regardless of the blood

line. I appreciate a good presentation and I can recogni

ze excellent conditioning and preparation. Nevertheless, I

encourage amateur handlers and owners to have fun in the

ring, but they must be at least able to control the horse, for

every one’s safety.

AHJ: What do you think of the judging

method which eliminates the highest and

lowest marks from the total score? Do you

find it better than the traditional method of

judging? Do you like the three medal cham

pionships?

FG: The method of eliminating the highest and lowest

marks could be a good one if the judges are not psycho

logically influenced in their judging by this method. It

takes courage to give an extremely high or low mark, but

if the judge thinks that it will only be eliminated, then it

is futile. I think the best method of judging is by compa

rison, especially in the larger classes. I believe that it is

important that judges take responsibility for their choices.

The three medal championship of gold, silver and bronze is

an excellent way to have more winners in the ring, hence

more satisfied breeders and a wider market of acknowledged

prize-winning horses.

AHJ: The shows are becoming ever-more

competitive and there is so much pressure

AHJ: Gli appuntamenti sono sempre più

pressanti ed i soggetti che calcano le arene

levatoriale, comunque il cavallo carismatico domina il

prize the most, your ideal “ type” of an Ara

bian horse, or do you let yourself be carri-

FG:Although I definitely look for my ideal type of horse,

one which I could possibly add to my breeding program, a

charismatic horse dominates the ring. Both conditions are

anco Groring. Entrambi le condizioni sono importanti: un cavallo

può essere morfologicamente corretto, ma se non trasmette

emozioni, perde il fascino. Dall’altra onda, non può essere

soltanto carismatico.

AHJ: Come vedi il futuro delle competi

zioni morfologiche in Europa?

FG: Si chiuderà sempre di più il cerchio, predominerà

l’elite a discapito del piccolo allevatore se non sarà data

maggiore importanza nel creare categorie per i minorenni,

amatori e proprietari. In concomitanza degli show di

morfologia si potrebbe promuovere la partecipazione di

nuove categorie in Europa, come per esempio il “Native

Costume”, che fa divertire e fa scena; come le categorie di

varie discipline montate dai bambini, che crea tutto un

nuovo mercato di vendite di cavalli già addestrati, semi

nari e lezioni di monta inglese, western, dressage ecc. Sol

tanto circa il 6% dei cavalli arabi oggi sono presente nei

concorsi di morfologia, con la rimanente 94% in cerco di

(che necessitano) nuovi mercati. Comunque è importante

non perdere di vista l’obbiettivo principale: “divertirsi”.

Anche se a monte per lo più delle volte ci sono coinvolti

ingenti capitali, io credo che lo spirito giusto debba sem

pre essere quello di divertirsi insieme e di avere un hobby

in comune…la passione per il cavallo arabo.

AHJ: Sei stato giudice nel concorso apri

pista della stagione italiana, A MalpensaFie

re, saranno molti i tuoi impegni da giudice

in questo anno agonistico?

FG: In questo fase della mia carriera da giudice, posso

giudicare qualsiasi show Regionale, o Classe C Nazionale

e Internazionale in qualunque nazione governata dall’

ECAHO. Sono appena tornato da Belgio, dove ho giudi

cato al West Coast Cup. E’ stato un bel show, nonostante

il tempo non è stato clemente. L’organizzazione è stato

ottimo e la qualità dei cavalli piuttosto alto. Fino ad ora

Franco Grotteria

important: a horse can be morphologically correct, but if it

doesn’t touch you emotionally, then it loses charm. On the

other hand, it cannot only be charming.

AHJ: How do you vision the future of hal

ter competitions in Europe?

FG:With the elite predominating, the winner’s circle

will become even more elusive. This will be to the disad

vantage of small breeders if other categories like youth,

amateur and owner classes aren’t added to the shows. Only

approximately 6% of Arabians today are halter show hor

ses, with the remaining 94% in need of expanding mar

kets. In order to promote greater participation at the

halter shows, a few ridden classes could be added to the

programs, for example; Native Costume, which is fun for

both spectators and riders; various youth ridden classes,

which would create a whole new market for the training

and sales of performance horses, seminars and lessons for

young riders; English, western, dressage, etc. However it’s

important not to lose sight of the main objective of the

shows, which is to have fun. Even though at times the

stakes are high, I believe that the true spirit is that of

enjoying each other’s company with a common interest…

the passion for the Arabian horse.

AHJ: You were a judge at the first show of

the Italian circuit, at MalpensaFiere in Mi

lan, will your judging appointments be nu

merous in this year’s show season?

FG: In this phase of my career as judge, I can judge at

any Regional show, or Class C National and International

show in any country governed by ECAHO. I’ve just returned

from judging at the West Coast Cup in Belgium and I must

say that it was a very good show, apart from the weather.

It was very well-organized and the quality of the horses

was quite high. I have been invited to judge in Salerno in

June and in Palermo in October, but unfortunately I’ve had

KaliberAndalusia

2010 Photos article by Kristian Fenaux

La coppia francese Paulette e Daniel Maldera si è aggiudicata la com

petizione spagnola di endurance Kaliber Andalusia, corsa sui 500 chilo

metri tra Siviglia e Cazorla, con i loro mezzo-sangue Arabi LOUNA

DE-RIVOIRON e OTELLO-DE-RIVOIRON. La vittoria nella categoria

“Solo” è andata allo spagnolo Eduardo Sanchez su HERMES, vincitori

nella stessa categoria anche lo scorso anno. La Kaliber Andalusia è un

evento unico nel mondo dello sport equestre di fondo, non solo perché

si tratta probabilmente della gara di endurance più lunga, ma soprattutto

perché il percorso si snoda attraverso l’eccezionale scenario dell’Anda

lusia. La quinta edizione del Kaliber Andalusia ha avuto luogo dal 9 al 18

di Aprile, con andamento da Ovest verso Est, partendo da Siviglia e fi

French couple Paulette and Daniel Maldera won the

spanish 500 kilometers Kaliber Andalusia endurance ride

between Seville and Cazorla, riding their part-bred arabians

LOUNA-DE-RIVOIRON and OTELLO-DE-RIVOIRON.

Solo riders victory went to spanish Eduardo Sanchez and

HERMES, past years winners in the same category. The

Kaliber Andalusia ride is a unique event in the world of the

equestrian endurance sport, not only because it is probably

the longest endurance ride, but even more so because the

ride travels through the outstanding scenery of the spanish

region of Andalusia. The fifth running of the Kaliber Anda

lusia ride took place from 9th to 18th of april, going from


Ronda, Antequera, Granada e Baza. Quest’anno la cavalcata era lunga

472 km ed ha avuto luogo su otto tappe con un piccolo prologo di 4

chilometri all’apertura ufficiale nel pomeriggio di venerdi 9 Aprile

all’ippodromo Dos Hermanas, vicino Siviglia.Trentotto cavalli, prove

nienti da Francia, Germania, Svizzera, Italia e Spagna, erano schierati alla

partenza delle due gare. Quattordici cavalli con i rispettivi cavalieri era

no iscritti alla gara “Solo” (Individuale), dove un cavallo ed un cavaliere

coprono l’intera distanza, mentre ben ventiquattro cavalli erano iscritti

alla gara a squadre. Ciascuna squadra ha due cavalli con uno o due cava

lieri, ed erano quindi presenti dodici squadre, tre delle quali con due

cavalli ed un cavaliere, mentre le altre nove squadre avevano due cavalli

e due cavalieri ciascuna. Le regole della gara stabiliscono che se un caval

ra, Granada and Baza. This year the ride was 472 kilometers

long and took place over eight stages with a little 4 kilo

meters official opening prologue stage on friday afternoon

9th of april at the racetrack of Dos Hermanas, near Seville.

Thirty eight horses lined up at the start for the two com

and Spain. Fourteen horses and their riders entered the solo

riders competition where one horse and one rider compete

over the total distance, while twenty four horses competed

quella giornata, ma gli verrà assegnato il tempo equivalente alla velocità

minima di percorrenza più una penalizzazione temporale. La classifica

finale mostra che tutte le squadre hanno ufficialmente completato la

gara, alcune di esse con notevole penalizzazione, mentre solo sette dei

quattordici partenti individuali sono riusciti a raggiungere il traguardo

finale di Cazorla. Quest’anno il Raid Kaliber Andalusia, giunto alla sua

quinta edizione, ha attraversato i Parchi Nazionali di Doñana, Grazale

le città di Siviglia, Ronda, Antequera, Granada e Baza, oltre a, natural

with two horses and one rider and nine more teams with

two horses and two riders. The competition rules state that

if a horse is pulled at any vet-gate, then it gets a time penal

ty, but can still compete during the following days if the vets

think the horse is again fit to go, which is a better option for

teams rather than for solo riders. If a horse needs a rest day,

it may be allowed not to start but get assigned the minimum

speed time plus a time penalty. The final standings show that

all of the teams did officially finish the ride, some of them

with lots of penalty time, while only seven of the fourteen

solo riders managed to reach the finish line in Cazorla. This

year the fifth edition of the Raid Kaliber Andalusia crossed

the National Parks of Doñana, Grazalema, Sierra Nevada,

Sierra de Baza and Sierra de Cazorla and visited the cities

La variabilità meteo ha portato la gara dal tempo primaverile delle spiag

gie di El Rocio, Sanlucar de Barrameda e Matalascañas, all’aria frizzante

di montagna della Sierra de Baza, con della neve ancora presente lungo

il percorso, e sulla Sierra de Cazorla. Quest’anno i cavalieri francesi

hanno partecipato con ogni intenzione di vincere, anche più delle altre

volte, con ben cinque squadre capaci ciascuna di vincere la classifica fina

le, come effettivamente è poi successo, anche se solo due delle squadre

sono riuscite a completare il percorso senza penalizzazioni. Le prime tre

tappe erano piuttosto pianeggianti, dalla partenza di Siviglia fino a El

Rocio e poi Sanlucar de Barrameda. Le cinque tappe seguenti erano tre

di puro percorso montagnoso, con arrivo a Ronda, Baza e Cazorla, e due

tappe miste, quelle con arrivo a Antequera e Granada. Il venerdi 16 la

corsa ha osservato un giorno di riposo a Granada, per permettere una

visita alla famosa Alahambra ed agli altri famosi monumenti di quella

città. La velocità media è rimasta sostenuta per tutte le otto tappe, toc

cando quasi i 16 chilometri/ora per i vincitori a squadre Paulette e Da

niel Maldera, i quali hanno impiegato meno di 30 ore per coprire la di

stanza totale di 472 chilometri. I cavalieri individuali sono stati

vious editions, with a few rainy moments. It went from true

springtime weather at the beach in El Rocio, Sanlucar de

Barrameda and Matalascañas, to more frisky in the mountai

nous parts of the Sierra de Baza, with some snow still close

to the trail, as well as in the Sierra de Cazorla. This year the

french riders came to win, more than ever before, with five

teams good enough to win the final standings, and so it hap

pened at the end, although only two of their teams managed

to finish without penalty time. The first three stages were

rather flat, starting in Seville and going to El Rocio and then

Sanlucar de Barrameda. The next five stages included three

mountains days, arriving in Ronda, Baza and Cazorla, and

two semi-mountain days with arrivals in Antequera and Gra

nada. On friday 16th there was a rest day in Granada to al

low for a visit to the famous Alhambra and the monuments.

The average speed was rather fast all over the 8 stages, with

almost 16 kph average for the teams winners Paulette and

Daniel Maldera, totaling less than 30 hours for the 472

sensibilmente più lenti, con il vincitore Eduardo Sanchez che ha impie- kilometers. Solo riders were definitely slower, as winner

MARQUIS-DE-KARESI e MA

MOUR-DU-GUIDE, che si ag

giudicavano le prime due tappe.

L’individuale Eduardo Vazquez ha

fatto lo stesso con il suo SHAG

YA-ZOZO. Il terzo giorno, il ca

valiere locale Eduardo Sanchez,

su HERMES, gareggiava in dire

zione della sua città Sanlucar de

Barrameda. Naturalmente San

chez ha utilizzato la propria cono

scenza del percorso per guada

gnare un grosso vantaggio sugli

inseguitori, seguito dall’abile Jose

Gundin su SOPENILLA che ha

vinto la tappa a squadre. Entrambi

i cavalieri hanno così conquistato

il rispettivo primo posto in classi

fica. Il quarto circuito era un sen

tiero montagnoso fra Villamartin

e Ronda, dove i francesi hanno

riguadagnato la prima posizione,

mentre Sanchez è riuscito a con

servare il suo primato in classifica

individuale. Da quel momento la

gara è stata una questione esclusi

vamente francese, dato che i Tran

salpini avevano tre squadre nelle

prime tre posizioni, con meno di

tre minuti tra i primi ed i terzi in

classifica. Una squadra spagnola

della Regione Basca occupava la

quarta posizione, quasi un’ora in

ritardo rispetto ai terzi. Jose Gun

din, su SOPENILLA, ha vinto la

quinta tappa per il team basco, ma

i francesi sono riusciti a stargli a

ridosso, in modo tale che non fa

cesse quasi nessuna differenza agli

effetti della classifica generale a

squadre. Il giorno seguente il suo

compagno nella squadra basca,

Anne Diemert Wach, riding

MARQUIS-DE-KARESI and

M A M O U R - D U - G U I D E

respectively, winning the

first two stages. Solo rider

Eduardo Vazquez did the

same with his SHAGYA

ZOZO. The third day local

rider Eduardo Sanchez, ri

ding HERMES, was riding

to his hometown of Sanlucar

de Barrameda. He used his

knowledge of the trail to

take a huge advantage, fol

lowed by a clever Jose Gun

din riding SOPENILLA who

won the teams stage. Both

took the lead at the general

standings. The fourth loop,

a mountainous trail between

Villamartin and Ronda, and

here the french regained

the first position for teams

while Sanchez managed to

preserve his solo rider class

leadership. From then on

the teams competition was a

french business, as they had

three teams in the three first

positions, with less than 10

minutes between the first

and the third team, and

with a spanish team from

the Basque Country (north

of Spain) in fourth position

almost one hour behind.

Jose Gundin, riding SOPE

NILLA, won the fifth stage

for the basque team, but the

french stayed close to him so

it made almost no difference

for the general teams stan


Imanol Boveda, su MOKY, è arrivato al con

trollo veterinario della sesta tappa insieme ai

francesi leader della classifica, ma ha perso al

cuni minuti e non è riuscito poi a raggiungerli

durante il secondo giro, lasciando quindi che il

team francese accumulasse ulteriore vantag

gio. Dopo la giornata di riposo a Granada, Jose

Gundin ha aumentato a 19 km/ora la velocità

nella settima tappa, arrivando a Baza con ben

13 minuti di vantaggio sugli inseguitori, ma

poi la sua cavalcatura SOPENILLA non ha ef

fettuato il trotto finale ed è stata quindi pena

lizzata. Dopo sette tappe ed una percorrenza

di 420 chilometri, c’erano ancora tre squadre

francesi nelle prime tre posizioni all’avvio del

la ottava ed ultima tappa; l’abbuono previsto

per il vincitore dell’ultima tappa poteva quindi

sovvertire totalmente i piazzamenti, visto che

il distacco fra le tre squadre era meno di 10

minuti.Tra i cavalieri individuali, Eduardo San

chez era in testa con ampio margine, ma la

lotta per il secondo posto vedeva la tedesca

Heike Blümel e la svizzera Elsbeth Brunner a

meno di un minuto l’una dall’altra, per cui an

che questo prometteva di essere un finale in

candescente. La tappa finale, che si snodava fra

gli scenari incantevoli del Parco Nazionale del

la Sierra de Cazorla, ha avuto inizio con le

squadre francesi ancora alla testa della corsa

insieme al compagno di squadra di Gundin,

Imanol Boveda, che cercava di aggiudicarsi il

traguardo di tappa. Al controllo veterinario a

metà percorso, il primo arrivato Daniel Mal

dera ha perso ben 6 minuti, ma gli sono bastati

8 chilometri per riprendere i cavalieri di testa.

Lungo la discesa verso Cazorla le squadre fran

cesi si tenevano d’occhio a vicenda ed il basco

Imanol Boveda ne ha approfittato per portarsi

in testa, a caccia della vittoria di tappa. All’ar

rivo del gruppo francese Maldera l’ha spuntata

nella volata finale confermando la sua vittoria.

Tra i cavalieri individuali, la svizzera Elsbeth

ding. The next day his teammate Ima

nol Boveda, riding MOKY, arrived at

the vet-gate of the sixth stage together

with the french leaders but they lost

several minutes and could not catch

them during the second loop of the

sixth stage, so the french grew their

advantage even more. After the rest

day in Granada, Jose Gundin pushed

the speed up to 19 kph on the seventh

stage to arrive in Baza with 13 minu

tes advantage to his followers, but then

his mount SOPENILLA failed the final

trot and was penalized. After seven

stages and more than 420 kilometers

there were still three french teams in

the top three positions with one stage

to go and with the bonus allowance to

the last stage winner enough to chan

ge it all as there was still less than 10

minutes difference between them. For

the solo riders Eduardo Sanchez was

leading with a save margin, but for the

second position german Heike Blümel

and swiss Elsbeth Brunner were less

than 1 minute apart so this promised

also a hot final. The final stage, throu

gh the outstanding scenery of the Sier

ra de Cazorla National Park, started

with the french teams again riding in

front in company of Gundin’s team-

mate Imanol Boveda going for a stage

win. At the vet-gate halfway leader

Daniel Maldera lost 6 minutes, but he

only needed 8 kilometers to catch the

frontrunners. Downhill to Cazorla the

french were watching each other so ba

sque Imanol Boveda left them alone and

went for the stage victory. When the

french arrived Maldera won the sprint

confirming his final ride win. For the

solo riders swiss Elsbeth Brunner won
