Sarah Star and EUPHORION
The tall, muscular chestnut colt pranced on his toes, shaking his head and snorting. He was tired of waiting for Sarah to stop checking out other horses and get on his back. James came over finally to give her a leg up, after watching Sunset Crusade and Marissa Star work with a couple other horses. As soon as the lead was unclipped, the colt was off, trotting bouncily on the dirt.
Sarah smiled at his eagerness to go. He took in the sights and sounds of his new surroundings while he warmed up, but wasn't particularly excited when she slowed him to walk. Easy, Ryan. She soothed as he tossed his head with a touch of frustration. They had to wait for Silverianna and Kirsten, who they had prearranged to work with today.
Silverianna was the final Bank On Silver baby; Euphorion was the first of Euphoria's. Euphoria was Bank on Silver's first baby, along with her twin Lusitania, who was half owned by Akita Rose Stables, and was therefore half sister of Silverianna. If success of siblings and parents was anything to go by, Silverianna would dominate, and so would Euphorion. Sarah was really excited to see Silverianna race for the first time, and equally excited about riding Euphorion's first race. Not long now!
Ryan decided he'd had enough of walking, and broke forward suddenly into canter. Rolling her eyes, she quickly checked to see the track was clear, and turned him in a tight circle to slow him back down to trot. Then she spotted Silverianna and Kirsten approaching. A huge smile spread across her face. This workout was going to be interesting..
