Hello Akhal-Teke owners:
Following is a copy of an email that I received from Natasha Pontecorvo regarding her preparations to invite T. Ryabova to come over to grade the purebred Akhal Teke horses in the United States and Canada. She asked me to forward the information on to as many Akhal-Teke owners that I know of. No doubt a number of you have already received this notice from someone else – if so, I apologize for the duplication – but two, or even three, notifications are better than none! :>)
I want to emphasize that per Natasha there will be *no charge at all *for the Grading or for travel expenses for grading *Purebred *Akhal-Tekes. She did say to me that there would be a possiblity that partbred (50% or better) ATs could be graded as well, but there would be a charge for that (I don’t know how much*).***
I also want to emphasize on Natasha’s behalf that this grading tour is not affiliated with any Akhal-Teke Association, and it does not matter if a person is or is not a member of any Association. Any – and all – Akhal-Teke owners are eligible to have their horses graded. No doubt there are some AT owners who I have not included in my email – because I don’t know of them – but hopefully you all will be able to pass the information on to all our AT owners – here in the US and in Canada too.
Please reply to Natasha’s requests listed from 1 thru 8 below as soon as possible. I don’t know the actual date that this tour is planned for, but I feel certain that the sooner Natasha has the information she is requesting, the sooner the date can be finalized.
We all owe Natasha a huge debt of gratitude for getting this organized!
And thank you all in advance for your prompt cooperation – Shirley Schulz
