Down Under, Pearce is not one to make any predictions on how he and Jamco's Vagabond might fare. From past experiences he acknowledges his fate will largely be determined by the mental and physical state of his horse. Within a few weeks. Jamco's Vagabond will leave for Australia to get quarantined and to acclimatize himself with his new surroundings. At the present time, Pearce feels his veteran performer is near the top of his game.
Horses are funny.
If I have a great day you never know. Things can go your way. With a horse as your partner, you're more vulnerable. But my horse is in top form this year. He had good rides before the trials.
