>>>> Baldur fra Bakka who won the 1999 flying pace WC....he was my trail mount for a long time, wonderful horse....very traditional training.
And Baldur is the one who you told us was sent to Hawaii to retire, and who you also said was sterile due to steroid use during his show career, right Skye? I thought he was the one, so I did a search of the archives. I found this, back when you still called yourself, Storme: http://pets.groups.yahoo.com/group/IceHorses/message/61732 I remembered that post vividly, since he was the first Icelandic I heard linked to steroid use. I'm not sure that he's a prime example to include here, since that brings up still another show/training problem. Karen Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED] No virus found in this outgoing message.
