Republic: Karel
Spacil and Elans Magic (owned by Michalea Sykorova, Ranch Patriot)
had earned first and second place in the first go round and dominated
the second one with both judges. “This was the first time, the
Czech national anthem was played at the European Championship,”
said CZQHA president Jitka Kynclova after the class, beaming with joy
and pride. „This was my biggest successt so far,” daid Karen
Spacil who has been training cutting horses for eight years now. “I
got the mare which was bred in the U.S.A. only a few months ago. I’m
so proud of her.” The
