Andreas Helgstrand has purchased a part in Tirana. This is a cooperation that we are looking forward to and very happy about.

Andreas Helgstrand is also looking forward to beginning the work with the very talented young mare. It is a very nice and loose horse to look at, walk, trot and canter are all superb, it radiates "here-I-come" when it enters the arena, and then it looks like it has the right amount of nerves, explains Andreas Helgstrand, who is also looking forward to cooperating with Gitte Søgaard and Povl Hove in this agreement.
Andreas Helgstrand is expecting to ride Tirana himself, and he is also taking care of the education and showing of the mare, and he explains that first of all the goal will be the world championships for young horses.
