Balagur - Russian olympic dressage horse

I have been checking this post hoping to find his time - how great to get it from the 'horses mouth'

Good luck with the Kur, this horse really is what dressage is about, he has a great personality that shines through, he makes me smile with his obvious enjoyment of life and the way his rider so obviously treasures him.
 
Fantastic to hear from you. Please give him a big hug and a carrot from me.

His Kur today moved me to tears. He looks to be a very intelligent horse and full of character.

He really seems to enjoy his dressage and his rider looks like she loves him to bits.

Is there a Balagur fan club? There should be.

Would love to see some more pictures of him at work and at play.

Could you tell us more about him please? His quirks his, likes and dislikes.

Thank you. xx
 
Lizzieg - Balagur's kur tonight made me cry. He was such a superstar. The ending was amazing. Well done to all concerned!

Please pass on very best wishes to him and Alexandra - really, he was such a pleasure to watch tonight.

Oh, and Lizzeg - it was so nice to see a dressage horse that didn't have it's bloomin tail dragging on the ground.

Beautifully turned out imo.
 
Wonderful to watch and I too got rather emotional. Just so expressive and obviously totally enjoyed himself in the arena. Im not surprised he has a fan club over in HK....I think if he comes to the UK we will end up hugging him till he is squashed!!!

Very well done to you all.
 
Apologies for my silence, after an emotional kur i drank one wine too many at the after party and could not face a computer yesterday!! Fortunately balagur was only walking and hand grazing yesterday, which he really enjoyed as he got to have a good roll on the racecourse-he was no longer the well turned out horse you all saw!! He turned a nice shade of green and brown!!
Wasn't he fab in the kur?! Thank you everyone for all your messages of support. I spoke to Sasha (his rider) and she said maybe it would be a good idea to come over and do a masterclass, so watch this space and i'll keep you all updated.
Anyway i must go and pack everything for our long trip back home. I'll be back on Monday hopefully with some photo's!!
 
Wishing Balagur a really safe and easy trip home. Glad to hear he had a nice roll, I wish you had some pictures of that!!!

We'd love to have him over here, that would be so brilliant. He has so many fans.

Many congratulations to Sasha and Balagur.
