Earlier I wrote that Patrikin Muisto would not be joining Elitkampen in Solvalla this year -luckily I was wrong! The interview I saw in IS Ravit web magazine was from last year, when he couldn’t participate. Silly me!
Tomorrow’s race shall be interesting. Will the two great Finns continue showing their superiority to the Swedes and Norwegians or will they have to bend under pressure? I’m hopeful, since Finns have been doing great job in this year’s international races, not to even mention the four-time winnings in Vincennes. :D

Where are you from?
I’m really interested -so far the Finns have been the most active visitors in my blog, though there has been an increasing number of foreign visitors too. I’m very pleased to see that there had been visitors from 13 different countries in May before moving the blog to wordpress! :D
WP just seems to lack one cool thing that Vuodatus had -telling where the visitors were from (if it wasn’t set to Unknown). Or then I just can’t find it yet. Anyhow, it would be great if you told me where you come from. In the comment field you may tell the exact country. :)

Hello to all new and old readers! :)
The national treasure blog has been around from 2009. Now it will continue here, publishing writings, photos and videos about finnhorses, the only genuine horse breed of Finland, by a young Finnish horse enthusiast.
