Yesterday at a very hot show grounds the Nala Team showed in the Taranaki for the first time in Twelve Years.The Taranaki had never seen Zephyr before so he travelled as the baby sitter for Sensational and between them had the most wonderful show with 11 classes for 11 firsts both PBNZ sashes and the NZRPS youngstock sash for Sensational, both championships Adult & Youngstock and both qualified for the SUPREME LED EXHIBIT ALLBREEDS of the SHOW where Sensational did an outsatnding workout but her 11 months of age just couldnt nudge ZEPHYR out of taking this award so a fantastic day in the sun arriving home at 10.30 pm after a round trip with two very tired ponies who im sure after eating up would have been down in the straw very quickly like me!!
