At the SWANA inspection, Mr. Karl-Henrik Heimdahl said, "This yearling is well-developed.
She is very rhythmic and has very good suspension - very elastic, like a rubber band in the way she moves."
Erika is by the Swedish stallion Eros TP by Donnerfly by Donnerhall. Stellar (Jadar Flicka), her dam, is by
Flyinge Amiral

Erika loves people and inspecting their shoes (she's a Gucci-girl), freely enjoys summer shower-baths whenever I'm filling
the water trough, fly sprays, clips, and loads in the trailer easily, stands in cross-ties, and loved snuggling
in her Rhino sheet last winter (she kept it pristine).
She is extremely bright and observant, learns quickly and is a calm and sweet nature with a bit of mischief (if allowed,
she will take the hose and squirt you!)
She just sits on her hocks and floats uphill whenever she trots. Her canter, when viewed between cavorts and gallops,
is also lofty and uphill. Her sire is 16.2h and her dam is 16.1h. She looks like she will top out in that size range.
Erika is now 3 years old
and free-lunging under tack for the first time in the photos below. Check the video link to YouTube to see her powerful movement
in 3 new videos. She was more interested in how she looked in the mirror with tack than about wearing it.

To the left is a snapshot sent to me from the SWANA inspection on 25 Sept 06. Erika scored 47 out of a possible
50 points and was awarded a Class 1 rating by the inspectors from Sweden. Comments below:
Walk: 8 -Ground covering, clear, rhythmic
Trot: 8 - Rhythmic, good suspension, ground covering
Canter: 8 - Rhythmic, elastic
These are the April 2008 photos of Erika showing the development
of strength, power and balance in her natural gaits.
