If there's one thing we love... it's this: news about Akhal-Tekes showing the world what they're made of by successfully competing in sports!
Owner Carolyn VanDyke is very pleased with the progress of her part-bred Akhal-Teke, Tazym (Gindarkh 13 x Tab's Fire), bred by Allegra Steck. Some of you may remember a post I did about him a while back with adorable photos that show-cased his super-snappy form over fences:
Tazym the Terrific Takes Jumpers by Storm @ Chagrin Valley Hunter Jumper Classic
And thanks to a very devoted team... it sounds like "Tazy" has been progressing in leaps and bounds and promises to only get better. In less than 6 months of show jumping he has moved up from 2'6 (0.76 m) to 3'6 (1.07 m), and is currently schooling 4'3 (1.3 m) at home.
Tazym's Team:
Carolyn VanDyke; owner
Lindsey Brizendine; rider
Judy Lorimer; trainer
Laura Droese; coach
RaeAnn Droese Ahlman; assistant coach
The following video was recorded by the family of Tazym's young rider, Lindsey Brizendine, at the Chagrin Valley Farms "A" Show, February 18 - 20, Adult Jumpers Classic & NARHA/Ariat Medal Classes in Bainbridge, OH. The pair finished: 3, 5, 2, 1!
