[RC] FW: Worlds Cup Race - Steph Teeter-----Original Message----- From: Betty K. Baker [mailto:betty_baker@xxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Wednesday, March 26, 2003 11:19 AM To: steph Subject: Worlds Cup Race Hi Steph, I heard from my husband Steve this morning in the UAE. He has been helping Cia & Catch A Wave. I thought you'd like to hear the updates that I recieved regarding the race. Valarie finished on Emphatic in 9th place and both looking very good. (My husband owned Emphatic till recently, he's pretty proud of how he performed under Val's riding) According to Steve, he believes Val is the only Masters Series rider to finish the race since Sheikh Mohommed and his sons had been withdrawn earlier in the race. Cia was withdrawn at the 3rd Vet check as was Steve Rojeck. The news I recieved on Rita was that she had an accident on trail when the borrowed horse she was ridding tripped. She was taken to the hospital for a checkup and xrays. Steve said the day was very challenging for the riders as it was 100 degrees and high winds, you couldn't put anything down since it would just blow away. He said most of the riders were looking pretty sunburnt by late afternnoon. When he last called, Bev and Meg were expected to finish soon and were doing well as of the last check. Steve was in the endurance (vet check) compound waiting for the horses to come into the first check when the helicopter crashed this morning. He said it was pretty scarey and quite dramatic. Everyone at the endurance compound watched the helicopter start to come apart in the air (lost parts or something) and then it just fell to the ground like a stone and burst into flames no more than an 1000 feet from him. He sounded pretty shook up about the whole thing, his comment was that "it was really horrible to watch". I think this is the last type of experience he expected to have during an endurance race. I wasn't sure how to make a post directly to ridecamp so I thought I should just send this to you and you can use what you want. If I remember anything else important, I'll zip it off to you.
