Horse of the week is Kalimba owned by Tom Hawkins

​Name: Kalimba (stable name Special as in Special K)

Breed: TB

Height: 18.1hh

Age: 8yo

Best achievement so far: Scoring high 60's at Novice BD on consecutive outings having only just moved up to this level.

About horse: Special is a gigantosaurus who loves his work, giving everything he has in the tank for you both in competition and training. He likes apples, going on outings and watching Chuck Norris films. He dislikes faffing.

Future goal: To ride at PSG as a combination.

Together we are, as a former instructor said of my riding, "the triumph of enthusiasm over skill". Fair one!
