Story
I heard about the Galactic Tournament a long time ago. But Niantu was so pleased from her last victory, I didn’t want to ruin it if she would lost this one. Moreover, she trained a lot and was really exhausted at the end of each day. Suddenly she fell ill and that was the last straw. I decided not to enter, I didn’t want to risk her health.

For a week I was gone to holiday and when I came back, I found Niantu still training. She was no longer ill and appeared to be in good shape. Even her shyness was suppressed and she seemed strong and ready. We had extremely quick decision, I had to prepare all the necessary stuff so we could go on our way to eastern Canada! What a journey! (well, from our fake, fantastic world of Colderra, it must have been even further than a "journey") We had a chance to see new land and new people. And I saw a great progress in Niantu’s anxious behaviour. She cautiously sniffed Ariana , a fellow horse entering the same class. There was no problem to choose a class most suited for us. As Niantu is not so obedient to do dressage, and I had enough of all the show jumping, we tried the cross-country this time. I thought - this will fit her well. There will be no distubring sounds in the wildness, no crowds of people trying to support her while doing the exact opposite... And I was right. She almost didn’t realize I am sitting on her back. I was glad she didn’t use any of her forest powers during the race, because that would surely lead to disqualification.

Now we just have to wait until the committee announces the results. We are both extremely nervous.
