Atterupgaards Orthilia and Agnete Kirk Thinggaard - Hagen 2017. Photo credit: Koen Gomes
In May 2017 Atterupgaards Orthilia substained an injury with a bad twisted fetlock from a paddock accident.
Now the 13-year old super mare has fully recovered and Agnete is looking very much forward to show her back at the competition. And at the same time Agnete also tells that she will of course just try to show Orthilia as easy as possible without any pressure, as she still needs her fully strength before asking for more.
Their come back is scheduled for the Danish national competition at Hedensted, taking place from 8 - 11 February where they will be at start in the Grand Prix.
End of November 2017 Agnete Kirk Thinggaard got the 9-year-old approved stallion Blue Hors Zatchmo by Zack / Donnerhall at her stables. He is former ridden and educated by Blue Hors rider Allan Grøn who showed Zatchmo successfully at small tour level, and at Blue Hors stallion show Allan also showed Zatchmo´s qualities for the big tour level. Agnete is very excited about Zatchmo and his qualities for the future, and will also bring him for the event at Hedensted to show him at small tour level.
Blue Hors rider Daniel Bachmann Andersen is also ready to show Blue Hors Don Olymbrio again after a long competition break, like Daniel is also ready to show the 8-year-old approved stallion Blue Hors Veneziano by Vivaldi / Donnerhall at Intermediare II level for the first time.
For Danish Anna Zibrandtsen it will also be a come back event at Hedensted, as she has not shown the now 13-year-old approved Oldenburger stallion Detroit since 2014 where he sustained an injury. Detroit and Anna will be ready for Intermediaire II.
Also Alibi D former international shown at Grand Prix by Sidsel Johansen is back at competition. He will now be shown at small tour level by Lotte Straarup.
