……

The five-day Jockey Club came to a grand conclusion.

These days can be called a carnival day for gentlemen and ladies, giving people a taste of the way the upper class has leisure and playing, and the ladies' grand costumes have also set off a trend. At the end of the day, they all gained a lot of money, or met friends, or showed their perfect side.

For An Feng, the excitement continues.

Apparently just watching the horses on the field these days, not being able to participate in them, was a lot of fun for everyone – but only halfway there, so Khalid extended an invitation to his friends to visit his private horse farm in Surrey. And emphasized that it was personally in battle.

After enjoying a horse racing feast, everyone had a strong desire to perform "immediately" and wanted to show their hands. Khalid provided the venue, and everyone happily went.

This time it was a horseback ride, and the ladies finally didn't have to bother anymore.

Riding suits aren't complicated – compared to those with a myriad of dresses. In a country like the United Kingdom, where the equestrian atmosphere is strong, there are many luxury brands of horse harness, and after a trip to a luxury store, you come in empty-handed, leave with a large bag and a small bag, and then put things in the tail box, and return with pleasure.

Surrey is very close to London, bordering Greater London and about 30 kilometres from the city centre...... To be honest, there is not much reason why Britain is here. The rest of the journey proved that a road trip in London is similar to driving in California, and it feels the same distance.

There weren't many people Khalid invited this time, but they all had a lot of status, and Bazel arrived. His family and friends are indispensable, and An Feng, as a relative, will attend even if he is not familiar with Khalid. Khalid's face is still not small. I can invite so many distinguished guests.

Surrey is somewhat of a suburb of London, and in another word, "country". However, the word "country" is not necessarily derogatory in England, and those aristocrats proudly claim to be "countrymen", so "city people" really have no pride in front of them.

Driving a white vantage on the country road, it is rare to have a sunny sky overhead, the weather these days is very face-saving to the queen, and the horse race will be cool. On the first day of the event, there was a heavy rain, and today it began to clear again. The weather in the UK is so unpredictable.

After arriving at the private horse farm, park in the parking lot, and according to the custom, go and invite the lady down first. Then remove the harness from the tail box. Along with the other guests, they entered the racecourse and exchanged pleasantries with Khalid, known as the "British expert", before visiting the stables.

Khalid's private horse farm is used for both horse breeding and horse racing, with two standard tracks, inside and outside, surrounded by grass in the middle and two artificial lakes. Run around his open-air and indoor horse training grounds, forage fields, and some obstacle courses. Very well equipped.

Khalid walked ahead and said: "I have lived in the UK on and off for six or seven years since I started my studies. He loves equestrianism, and has also collected a lot of famous horses with outstanding pedigrees over the years, from hot-blooded horses on the sprint track to warm-blooded horses for professional equestrianism. ”

The two front-of-the-line stables opened the stable door, and everyone walked in laughing. The stables are double-rowed, i.e. two rows of horses, with a wide aisle in the middle. Each horse is served in a single room, equipped with a self-cleaning machine, and is air-conditioned at this time of summer.

An Feng sighed, I'm afraid these guys enjoy it more than people.

Khalid enjoyed receiving the compliments, saying, "They are all well-trained horses, and my friends ride them a lot. Except for some horses with odd tempers, please feel free. ”

After the master spoke, everyone who was already itching their hands went to look for their horses.

An Feng and Joanna are not in a hurry, anyway, there are less than twenty people, and there are at least thirty or forty horses here, there is a lot of room for choice, especially for horse lovers, appreciation is also a pleasant process. Joanna explained the origin of these horses one by one, what British thoroughbreds, Serra-France, Hanoverian horses...... From the breed to the appearance characteristics, they are outstanding, and each horse is naturally worth a lot of money.

After turning around, An Feng said: "It's really itchy to see these high-headed horses." ”

"You don't have a plan for a private horse farm, do you?" Joanna, who was already familiar with his character, guessed.

"Huh? You said it first! An Feng looked at her with a smile.

"I agree!" Joanna was crisp this time because she liked it too.

An Feng pulled her to stroll: "Respect your opinion." When we go back, we buy a piece of land in California and build a high-end horse farm for both horse racing and polo. The vineyard is too small, and it is suitable for occasional leisure, and when there are many people, it will inevitably become crowded and the site is not professional enough. ”

Joanna says: "The automated cleaning machines are suitable, precise and fast, and can also shower and massage the horses." ”

An Feng nodded: "The automated machinery is really good, a few horses can take care of themselves, but there are many of them, and the simple manual labor is time-consuming and inefficient." ”

Joanna said: "It's a good opportunity now, we have to learn. ”

After the two reached an agreement, they chose their favorite horses, as horse lovers, they certainly did not need the help of the horse farm staff, from the beginning of pulling out the stable, began to communicate with the horses, which is also extremely testing of skills, but this batch of horses have been trained and very obedient.

Putting on their bridles, adjusting the length of the reins, and then throwing the saddle and pulling them out of the stable, Joanna smiled and said, "Which of us adapts faster?" ”

"Come on!" An Feng nodded.

After a distance, the two of them turned over and got on their horses, spurring the horse under them, which was still a little uncooperative, and began to move around the field, so that the other people who were still preparing also sped up...... Soon, after a few laps, both men and horses adapted to this rhythm, and the cooperation became tacit.

An Feng couldn't help but praise: "What a smart horse! ”

In addition to them, everyone also rode horses into battle, they chose different ways of entertainment, and several staff members rode horses, always following them to prevent accidents, and safety measures were also very in place. But most of them were new to unfamiliar horses and didn't dare to let them go.

Especially ladies, in the case of not too safe skills, too strong expressiveness may make themselves embarrassed, such as Catherine, the girl can turn over and ride on the back of the horse alone is enough to win warm applause, and she also let the horse realize the command from fast to stop, no tricks are really not good, but she stopped in moderation and did not continue to perform, not everyone can be like Joanna......

She now rode a Hanover horse on the track, her body undulating, her waist straight, and a well-cut riding suit, which made her heroic posture easily win the applause of ladies and gentlemen. I don't have any excellent skills, and I really don't have the courage to play so fiercely.

Khalid rode up to be side by side with An Feng and said, "What a surprise! I didn't expect Madame's equestrian skills to be so powerful, worthy of being from a famous aristocratic family! ”

Although An Feng was proud, he was still humble for her on the surface: "She just spends other people's leisure time on training." ”

Khalid nodded: "This really has to be practiced!" ”

It may be Joanna's stimulation, everyone's desire to express is completely stimulated, they have to show their hands in front of people, no matter how good or bad the skills are, as long as they dare to try, they will give the warmest applause, after all, the purpose of playing is leisure, not a competition on the field, entertainment is the first priority.

An Feng also showed a small skill of winding the barrel. Coincidentally, Khalid told him that the warmblood was usually good at obstacle courses, so it was easy for the horses to be able to control the horses to and from one field to another, flying back and forth between the obstacle barrels.

After the wonderful performance, An Feng rode back to the crowd, took off his hat and saluted, winning a round of applause.

Influenced by the horse racing festival, the whole morning was a great time to play. The summer sun in London isn't too strong, and even the standard English riding suit is still very comfortable, so when you're tired of playing, sit down on the spectator stage to rest, drink frozen mineral water and juice, and chat with friends.

Khalid handled this very well, and when everyone had had enough fun on the horse farm and were almost familiar with each other, the next topic was relaxed and natural, revolving around equestrianism, horse breeding, or some other topic. Equestrianism, in particular, is easy to resonate with everyone.

An Feng asked Khalid for some knowledge about private horse farms.

Khalid knew a lot about the choice of site, the construction of stables, as well as indoor horse training farms, forage fields, ...... There are all kinds of specifications, but he can't guarantee that he will be proficient in the doorway, so he recommends, "Actually, it is best to hire a professional designer." ”

"I agree." An Feng said that it was in line with the thinking of a lazy man, which he had done before. (To be continued......)
