A great adventure with a fantstic end in Hongkong.
Gold and Silber at the Provincial Championships
Leonie and SHOWTIME (by Polarpunkt - Tenor) were in excellent form during the 3 days of back to back competition at the Provincial Championships in Hannover. All three of the tests were at
Inter I level in the first of which they placed 2nd .
Day two began with the ring under water, despite the terrible conditions SHOWTIME „swam" to 4th place. For the final, things had dried out some what creating much better conditions. SHOWTIME produced a lovely test over 70% placing 2nd. All in all a super weekend with a well earned finish as Reserve Champions and recievers of the Silver medal.
