Exciting News from Malaysia's Sultan Mizan Cup 2011  -  our good friend Peter of Presco Endurance Stables had a successful campaign with his team of 3 horses which all completed & qualified really well in the 120km Ride (including a NZ bred horse).  A great result considering only 11 of the 62 entries managed to complete this ride and qualify.
Also our lovely South African friend Zelma Lotter was very excited to place 3rd at the Sultan Cup 2011 (she placed 6th last year).
