We´ll start with the King:
Avenir
e.Fakir du Vivier-Qriccolina
French Trotter.Gelding born 1987 in France. Starts:102 24-19-12 2.039.000 Sekr($270.000)
He came to Sweden from France and to our premiere Trotthorse trainer Stig H Johansson as a 2-yearold in 1989. Annelie was working for SHJ at the time and got Avenir in "custody". He was known as a stayer type horse on the track who never got tired. He could go three-wide over a two mile race and still beat the competition.
A great, great horse! Annelie and Avenir camped together for 10 years at Stig´s before he put his harness up for good and the owners gave him to Annelie as a gift. He´s been with us ever since. He´s a great individual and he really earns his keep. We lend him to mentally challanged kids during the weekends and hollidays and they use him as a pony horse. He takes great care of them and would never do anything foolish. Just mosying along. When Annelie climbs aboard though he´s two again and I guess, never broke! He also gets to school our weanling colts and teach them a thing or two about life, manners and who´s the boss.
