Ferrari flies Amerijet to Pan Am Games

THE first ever Trinidad and Tobago equine athlete, Ferrari, will leave by Amerijet for the 2003 Pan American Games in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, on Tuesday. This liver-chestnut gelding who certainly lives up to his name and is also known as Fantastic 13, will have Margaret “Muffy” Auerbach astride in the  dressage at the Prix St Georges level of the Games.  Ferrari flew off to Barbados aboard an Amerijet since the end of June where both horse and rider are training. Muffy is very excited to have qualified to represent Trinidad and Tobago and is looking forward to the experiences, challenges and sizing up the competition. She anticipates that competing in the Pan Am Games will give the sport an increase in awareness and interest in the eyes of public of Trinidad and Tobago. Ferrari, the first equine athlete ever to compete as part of a Trinidad and Tobago Olympic Committee’s contingent at the Pan American Games, will fly  Amerijet to Santo Domingo, where training will continue until he goes into action first on August 6, and return  home on August 12.
