| Who will be the champion? |
Hello my dears,
In my last post, I have already mentioned that I went to a
special event last weekend: The GRAND STEEPLE CHASE in Paris. It is the
richest and most prestigious horse jump race in France of 6000 meters.
I have never been a girl that absolutely adored horses when
I was younger but if I have to choose my favourite animal, I certainly would go
for horses. Their grace and grandeur always impress me and having witnessed my
first horse race on Sunday, I can easily add speed to their matchless
qualities. If I had more time, I would probably go riding from time to time.
Anyway, this event on Sunday was splendid. It was the first
time that I could wear shorts since temperatures rose to 25°C. My cousin and
me, we fully enjoyed our little trip that ended successful: A horse race
without a bet is slightly boring: we decided to bet twice although we
didn't have a clue what was to be considered. Therefore we once chose the only
German horse in the competition and another time we gave a shot for the horse
with the prettiest name – yep, a really valid argument. While we missed a win
for the first bet, our the-horse-with-the-prettiest-name-strategy turned out to
be a lucrative one! « Fleur d’Ainay » won the race and we
therefore were 30 € richer!
