Saturday
Schedule:
Saturday
morning will feature presentations and Q&A with the entire
audience by all four speakers.
On
Saturday afternoon each of the four conference speakers will go
to a separate meeting room and be available to discuss with individuals
and groups specific challenges you face breeding, managing, and
training young competition horses. We expect that individuals
most interesting in eventing horses, for example, will meet with
Gillian Rolton while those most interested in learning even more
about feeding and managing foals will meet with Christa Finkler-Schade.
Attendees will be welcome to spend time with one or more of the
speakers.
Sunday
Schedule:
On
Sunday morning there will be a parade of foals, yearlings, and
two-year-olds owned by Morningside Stud’s network of breeders
in Ireland and Northern Ireland. The conference speakers will
take turns offering comments on the conformation, type, movement,
and suitability of the young stock for competition careers and
breeding.
Following
the parade an auction will be held of some of the young stock
presented in the parade.
Further
details including conference, parade, and auction venues
in
County Clare will be published in the summer of 2003.
