Paris Horse Show ( France )
For the first time, some curlies were present at the Paris's Horse Show ! There were a breed
demonstration on Friday 9, Saturday 10 and Sunday 11 December.
Two curlies were there, own by Betty and Francis Prévost ( Avignon ) :
- *Jack Daniels, stallion (The Charmer A&M x Spartress)
- *Aladin, pony stallion (pony x curly)
Both were imported from USA.
Jack Daniels did the demonstration, with a semi-professional rider who is often working with him
, Aurélien.
Jack Daniels did have a very beautiful trot, very harmonious, but he wasn't very comfortable when he
cantered on a small ring ( hall 5 ).
He was very calm whatever the situations and very gentle.
His hairs wasn't very curly, it was more wavy.
Aladin were introduce with a ground work, he was less comfortable among the crowd as he is
still young. He was very curly.
Betty Prevost wasn't there because of her horse allergy, but her three children and a trainee gave the
informations on the breed, and lots of people were interested because almost 5000 leaflets were given away
in 3 days !
People reactions ? The people at the show did have differents reactions, first they had a surprise,
sometimes negative, but then they did want to learn more about Curlies.
