Cinzano is measure 16 hands
and is the tallest horse at Noah’s Ark. He was a a-showjumping
horse and was one of the horses who competed in the Singapore Youth Olympic
Games (YOG) in August 2010. After the games ended, the YOG horses were
distributed to the various riding schools in Singapore.
Cinzano had to be retired from his work because of a cracked hoof
on his front left leg, the impact from jumping had caused his hoof to crack ever
so often. He retired officially in March 2013.
For the love of horses, Raymund took Cinzano in because he was
confident that he could heal his hooves. Within a couple of months staying
at Noah’s Ark and showered with treatment and constant care, his hooves healed
very nicely. Cinzano has been with us for a year – and there is no sign
of any cracked hooves to be seen now.
Cinzano is now enjoying the freedom on our durian plantation
together with his girlfriend Prisma who is also a retired showjumping horse.
