  2. Wie werden die neue Hengste ausgesucht? Sind sie schon im Piber anlongiert? Ganz cooles Video!

  3. Hi Hausi,
    and only by six minutes according to the computer ! ha ha ha
    Roley sent me the link so glaube ich sie ist am schnellsten.
    Leberkaese I can handle but the aide of eating Pferd fills me with disgust. I would sooner starve.
    ps, how can I post photo's on here ?

  4. Hengste werden jährlich vom Direktor der SRS, dem Direktor des Gestüts, dem Obergestütsmeister und den Bereitern der SRS ausgesucht. Sie werden in Wien anlongiert und ausgebildet.

  5. The young stallions saw the Winterreitschule for the first time today at 7:00 am! They ran loose together for 30 Minutes!

  6. That is exciting! Can you tell their names? Do you have any favorites yourself? How long till they are paired with their riders? (I apologize for so many questions!)

  8. Emily, I believe the names of the new stallions are on the SRS website. One of the stallions pictured on the video, being led across the courtyard at about 54 seconds in [ blink and you miss him, ] is the brilliant F.Biserka. He is the one with the dapple markings that look like four leaf clovers and he doesnt need it for luck believe me. He is an incredible graceful guy. His gaits are outstanding.
    He doesn't trot, he glides along. His movements are fluid.

  9. Karen,
    F.Biserka is gorgeous! It will be amazing to watch his progress in the future.

  10. Hello dvl, yep, Biserka has star quality. There is something about him that catches your eye and you stay with him in Morgen Arbeit. I hope you get out to Vienna check him out. Oberbereiter Eders bay Bellornata is another to watch. He is a mature fully trained stallion and his 1 tempis are like thunder down the riding hall. I cannot speak favourably enough of Hausi's Basowizza, Dagmar, Narenta, Dahes and Dubowina. They are diamonds !!! Dear old Baso will always have a place in my heart. I met him last year and he has such a gentle soul.

  11. Thank you, Karen. I will check out the SRS website. Silly me -- I did not think of that!
    Don't you just love the ones that take your breath away? I think I could watch them forever and never tire of their beauty.

  12. Hi Emily, I was in Morgen Arbeit on Friday 6th March, which had been extended to 12.30 so the stallions could rehearse a little for the Saturday performance. People were getting up and leaving at 12 noon, it was so frustrating! You cant say, "Hey, please wait, you must see this." Then the chandeliers came on full brightness and stallions entered in their golden tack. It stopped people leaving and one couple stood for the next half hour transfixed. Yes, it is a breath taking moment.
