Championship in 1966. With a first prize of £25,000, the trials

people.

January 2003 (Robert Smith, Michael and John Whitaker, Tim
Stockdale, Richard Davenport, Andrew Davies, Robert Whitaker, Di

Michael Whitaker (Grb)and Billy Tworney (Irl) came in second
place with an equal total of 309 pts. In fifth place came Helena

Equestrain Attractions:
The four attrcations consisted of The Household Cavalry
Spectacular, Falconery on Horseback, the Scurry Driving
Challenge and the Horseball European Club Challege.
The Household Cavalry Spectacular: It was the first time that the Household
Cavalry’s amazing display was performed at a major venue outside
London. Specially choreographed for the occasion, the display
was performed in an array of spectacular lighting effects,
accompanied by vibrant music. Mounted on beautiful black horses
and resplendent in their red and blue tunics, gleaming steel
cuirasses and plumed helmets, the Household Cavalry captivated
with their fast-moving intricate display. The Household Cavalry
Spectacular is made up of twenty-seven serving soldiers from the
squadrons of The Blues and Royals and The Lifeguards. The
soldiers wear full dress, as used on all state occasions, and
are joined by the four State Trumpeters, mounted on grey horses
and the magnificent drum horse.
Falconery on Horseback: From France came 'Vol Libre',
Falconry on Horseback, featuring numerous birds of prey
including falcons, hawks and even an eagle. It was the first
time ever that a display of this type was performed indoors at a
major UK show. The dexterity and agility of both man and bird
captured the British public who could not have enough of the
performance.
Am
Swiss Life CSI Zürich verabschiedete sich Calvaro mit einem
rührenden letzten Auftritt von seinen zahlreichen Fans. Der
Wunderschimmel von Willi Melliger ist mit einer Gewinnsumme von
knapp zwei Millionen Franken das erfolgreichste Schweizer
Springpferd aller Zeiten. Mit Willi Melliger gewann der
sprunggewaltige Wallach mit der besonderen Aura Olympiasilber in
Atlanta 1996 und in Sydney 2000. Dazu wurde er 1996 Zweiter im
Weltcup und verhalf seinem erfahrenen Reiter auch zu vier
EM-Medaillen (Gold 1995 und Silber 1999 mit der Equipe, Bronze
1995 und 1997 im Einzel). Zudem sind Melliger/Calvaro das
einzige Schweizer Paar, dem es in der Geschichte des Swiss Life
CSI gelungen ist, die höchstdotierte Prüfung der Veranstaltung,
die Swiss Life Classic, zu gewinnen. Calvaro musste seine
Aktivkarriere auf Grund einer Meniskus-Verletzung im Frühling
2001 beenden und geniesst seither im Stall von Willi Melliger in
Neuendorf (SO) seinen wohlverdienten Ruhestand.
Zur
Auswahl standen Paul Freimüllers Himmerdor, Beat Mändlis
inzwischen an den Schweden Rolf-Göran Bengtsson verkaufter
Gryfino, Glaudia Gislers mächtiger Lugano und Markus Fuchs
bewährter Hengst Tinkas Boy. Alle vier Pferde hatten im Jahr
2002 mit Spitzenleistungen geglänzt. Mit 79 Prozent der Stimmen
haben die Leser der grössten Schweizer Pferdefach-Zeitschrift
den erfolgreichen Tinkas Boy zum Springpferde des Jahres gewählt
– zum vierten Mal hintereinander. Im vergangenen Jahr ersprang
der 14jährige Tinkas Boy insgesamt 465'199 Franken ans
Preisgeldern. Auf seinem Konto wurden 2002 total sechs
Blankorunden an Nationenpreisen notiert, unter anderem in
Aachen, wo die Schweiz im letzen Jahr den den Nationenpreis
gewann. Tinkas Boy wechselte vor fünfeinhalb Jahren in den Stall
des St.Gallers. Begeistert von seinem Sprungvermögen und
Kampfgeist kaufte Isolde Liebherr, Sponsorin von Markus Fuchs
und Schwester von Calvaro-Besitzer Hans Liebherr, de Hengst für
knapp zwei Millionen Franken.
