Safari wins FEI Freestyle in back to back Florida Shows

Safari, a 13 year old Dutch Warmblood gelding by Flemingh has won the FEI Intermediare Freestyle again, with another score over 70% at the Sunburn Classic in Tampa on June 10, 2012. This fancy and level headed 16.2 hand red head loves the music and the flow of his test, and is one of the easiest horses I have had the pleasure of showing. He is straightforward in his warmup and doesn't look at a thing outside the arena. He had never done changes (in a test) on the broken line, but I decided that it was time to try the shallow serpentine for the three tempi's and the half-circle in the two tempi's. The steep canter half-pass leads to the full pirouettes, and he scored 8 on his balanced extended canter. I am pleased with his willingness to try new things!
