Rolf-Göran Bengtsson and the eleven-year-old walrack competed in the Nation Cup competitions at Hickstead in July, which became the last competition they did together.

Oak Grove's Carlyle has now moved back home, where it all began. He is again ridden by Harm Lahde, who competed with the horse during his adolescence.

- It's always sad to lose a top horse, but I have a lot of very nice young abilities in the stable that I build for the future, says Rolf-Göran.
