Horses of all ages, colours and sizes between 70 and 98 centimetres (27 and 38

TNT Sires Of The World Comes To A Climax In Postponed Final
The final of the TNT Sires of the World will take
place during the FEI Breeding Jumping Championship at Domein Zangersheide on 22
September. The final was meant to take place in March but because Indoor
Brabant was cancelled an alternative date had to be found. Even though
postponed to September, the final will be none the less exciting; there is,
however, an adapted formula.
Lanaken is by tradition the place where the first
competition heats of TNT Sires of the World have taken place. In the beautiful
grounds, the interest in the stallion section on the one hand by the riders and
the stallion owners, and on the other hand by the sports fans and the breeders
is huge. For this reason an adapted formula has been chosen.

Ride For Road Safety Day
13 October 2001 |
The British Horse Society has joined forces with
Horse and Hound and Horse magazine in a Ride for Road Safety Day on 13 October,
with the aim of helping motorists understand why it is important to pass horses
and carriage drivers wide and slow when they meet them on the road.
There are over 3000 accidents a year involving horses on the roads, and six
riders have already been killed so far this year. The campaign will try and
explain to drivers the dangers of passing horses too closely at speed, or of
driving too fast along country roads when there might be a horse and rider
around the corner.

Rescued Horses to Race
Again
Racehorses at Karachi racecourse who were earlier
this year facing starvation have survived to race again.
Thanks to the quick actions of the ILPH
(International League for the Protection of Horses), who stepped in to fund a
rescue package, the future for those horses who survived their ordeal is
bright. |
Says Ian Kelly, ILPH International Manager,
"Unfortunately news of the plight of the horses abandoned at the
racecourse reached us too late for 70 or so, but we are pleased to say that all
the horses we helped have survived and the majority will race
again."
The ILPH enlisted the help of
the Brooke Hospital for Animals, who have a large programme in Pakistan, and at
the beginning of July a team led by vet Dr. Anwar-ul-Huq arrived in Karachi to
organise feed and water and administer veterinary treatment.

FEI World Breeding Jumping Championships for Young Horses 2001
Breeders-show of superlatives
The FEI World Breeding Jumping Championships for
Young Horses again promises to become a show of superlatives. For four days
domain Zangersheide will be the center of sport and breeding, a fascinating
combination as nowhere else highlighted during CSI-YH Zangersheide. With the
Grand Prix for licensed stallions (finals of the Sires of the World series),
the stallion selection of Studbook Zangersheide (on Thursday and Friday) and
the Studbook auction of foals and 3-yr-olds (on Friday-night) this last summer
weekend will once again offer a complete breeder’s festival.
The regular programme has only been marginally
changed - a thing once proved effective needs little adaption. Until the
circumstances demand, which is not the case. In the course of its eight
years’ existence the concept has, after all, sufficiently crystallized out
and the organisation committee and the regular crowd of helpers have learnt to
act in harmony. Actually, there can only be one false note, and that is the
weather.
