Mývatn Open 2009

As it is already tradition, Mývatn Open took place today, the second saturday in march. The weather in Húsavík was perfect, when we started our trip with Bragur in the trailer, but unfortunately it was not as nice and fairly cold in Mývatn area.
Ingólfur and Bragur took part in Tölt B, which went not as good as it could have, but that's just something to work on.
In Tölt A were quite many starters and 7 made it to the finals, including Mette Manseth, whose horse hurt itself during the competition and so did not start in the finals.
The stallionstest was a new kind of test and 8 stallions took the challenge to show themselves in slow tölt, medium tölt, trott, fast tölt or pace and 2 length of what they can do best. It was quite a surprise when Mette let her stallion Háttur frá Þúfum perform Spanish Walk and people were clapping a lot for that.
Last test of the day was the pace competition. 9 horses took part, one of them was Ester frá Hólum, who was quite successful on Landsmót 2008.
Bjarni Páll had even signed in with 2 horses, Djarfur, his wellknown spotted pacer and Funi, his newcomer. Ingólfur and Bragur had to try that too of course and they did their job well!
Just Stefán Birgir on Blakkur frá Árgerði and Þórarinn on Ester were faster than these two!
The pics are online, the videos will hopefully follow soon!
