Lizzie and Zadermus
Low Jr Jumper Classic
4th out of 38
To say that I'm crazy about these two is an understatement! I've loved seeing how Lizzie and Z have grown and bonded over the last 6 months because exactly 6 months ago it was a different story! Lizzie's trainer, Aaron Vale called us after a trip to Europe and said, "I really think you should buy this horse for Lizzie" We watched a video of Z, Lizzie wasn't overly impressed but we trusted Aaron and made Z a member of the van der Walde clan!
Z arrived late last October and came to the November Kentucky show. Lizzie did a schooling class on him and it was a disaster.... I believe her exact words were, "I'm not getting on that horse again."
Z went back to Florida with Aaron and spent the winter in training.
Lizzie and Z were successful during the Ocala Winter Circuit and are starting off the summer show schedule with a bang! They have become great partners and I am hopeful that I will have more "bragging" moments. It's a mom's job after all |
