Royal Palm/Andrew Palmer now standing Formula One!

Just saw it on their Facebook page. What a great stable of eventing talent they have!

So what is going on with the Pollards? Besides Formula One moving, I noticed that Buck Davidson is now competing Halimey. And Michael hasn’t been out competing much himself.

I think I read earlier this year or last fall that Michael was planning on focusing more on spending more time with his family so they were scaling back. Isn’t he the guy who is also the CEO of a carpet business along with having some other businesses in GA? Maybe he is focusing on that for a while rather than heavily in horses.

I’m so excited and happy for Andrew and the rest of the crew/family at the Palmers. It is certainly some awesome talent and eye candy up at his farm lately LOL. :wink:

My understanding is that yes, Michael Pollard took time off for his family - he has small kids. He is still out and competing one of his horses and there were foals born this year so I think he’s still involved and breeding etc but scaled back.

weixiao, Karl Bouqart (sp?) is the carpet guy. He owns Chatt Hills. All of the footing for their arenas is shredded carpet from his Mills.

Michael is the CEO of Cavalor North America.

Carl Bouckaert, father of Nathalie Bouckaert-Pollard, you get the connection.

Blugal, Thanks for the spell check! I really could not remember how to spell it, but remembered the carpet Mill stuff. :winkgrin:
