Gab es hier nicht letztens irgend eine Meldung, dass PaP verletzungsbedingt aus dem Sport ausscheidet?
Ha...gefunden:
Renowned international FEI Dressage Pony Power and Paint has been retired from competition. The past year, the soon to be 16-year old dun coloured stallion (by Power Boy x Dancer) has been struggling to stay sound and was being treated at Greve's equine clinic De Watermolen. The German owner, the Pasch family, however, decided that it has been enough and trailered the stallion back home to Germany. Neither the Pasch family nor his current rider/leaser, the Dutch Fokker family, wanted to comment on the current situation of the pony.
Trained by Coby van Baalen, Power and Paint was for many years the anchor pony on the Dutch Pony team having won numerous silver team medals. He had four FEI pony riders on him: Rachell Fokker, Angela Krooswijk, Mara de Vries and Marrigje van Baalen. The latter rider won individual silver with him, while Krooswijk won individual bronze. The pony got some controversial publicity when a photographer caught him being lunged in the rollkur for an extended period of time. Fortunately, Rachel Fokker's pony career has not ended with the departure of Power and Paint. Fokker is still training and competing her second pony Boss Bunter and has currently got the ride on the Welsh pony licensing champion Orchard Boginov (by Veronas Bo-Gi x Vita Novas Golden Boris).
