Pawlow, fondly known as Ernie! Shown here with rider Will Faudree at the Blenheim CCI*** last year, photo by our very own ESJ.
Will and Ernie are on the 2012 High Performance B List. Last year they won the CIC***’ at Jersey Fresh, before finishing 22nd at Luhmuhlen CCI****, and 8th at Blenheim CCI***. In 2010 Ernie was 15th at Rolex CCI**** and 2nd in the Advanced division of the AEC. Will was kind enough to give us a quick update,
“Ernie (Pawlow) is doing great. He has really been working hard this winter to move his feet quicker! I have had him for a long time and he has always done what I have asked him to do. His show schedule this winter and spring will not include a CCI as he is always better at his first one of the year. I find when I have him 4star fit for an extended period of time he goes past his peak. He always needs a proper let down after a big event! If the Olympics do not happen for him, I would love to take him to Boekelo! It has been really fun to be apart of his career. He is a very quirky horse and knows exactly who he is and what he wants. I’m just glad he lets me be a part of it!”
I bumped into Will down in Ocala and of course all we could talk about was how to stump the Eventing Nation, and it looks like we may have done it this time! Many thanks to Will for his collaboration, many thanks to everyone for sending me pictures, keep them coming, but most especially, thank you so much for joining in and making it such fun – I’m slightly embarrassed to admit it’s becoming a staple of my weekends! Thank- you as always, Eventing Nation, Go Eventing!
