Greetings for the day...

The Delhi Horse Show-2008 took off its flight on 30th March 2008. A series of events were lined up for the first day itself.

APRC Tent Pegging began at 7:00 a.m.  It was very interesting to see that three riders came in to represent the Aligarh Muslim University . These riders were:

                                <<AMU Riding Club - Tent-Pegging Kings - Click to see Kings are in Action>>

1. Athar Afsar Sulaiman, member Riding Club for whom it was his third National Delhi Horse Show in succession.
2. Ex-Captain of Riding Club, Mr. Salman Sayeed.
3. Ex-Captain Aleem Siddiqi.

All the spectators were of praise for the Tent Pegging skills of the riders from AMU and also for their charging voices.

When final sheets were collected, 8 points were reduced for Athar Afsar for speed as he had crossed the 100m mark in more than 7 seconds in two of the runs. Similarly 6 & 4 points were reduced from Ex-Capt.Aleem & Ex-Captain Salman Sayeed.

The AMU riders who would have won Silver and bronze medals in the event were very dejected by the judgement based on points in the confined event.

The riders participated on borrowed horses from the Army to represent AMU and keep the name of AMU alive in the National Equestrain Circuit, as the AMU Riding Club couldn't manage to get its team to The Delhi Horse Show-08.

People of the Army like Col.P.P.Singh, Major Salim Pathan, Dfr. Yunus Khan, Polo Player Rajat Kapoor, Col(Retd) Pickle Sodhi and many others praised the participants representing the Aligarh Muslim University for their commitment and enthusiasm for love of Horses and Equestrian sports and extended their help and support for bringing back the lost pride of AMU Riding Club which it had once.

Equestrain Federation of India (EFI) General Secretary, Col. Sarpratap Singh congratulated the riders for a very fine show and asked them to participate on competent horses so as to get the rewards for their talent and hard work. He said that after seeing the technique and passion among the riders, he beieved that they must take back bags of medals and give in a lot of competition.

Another round of applause came in from 61st Cavalry Unit of the Army who praised Athar Afsar Sulaiman for a perfect Gold winning tent-pegger and a dressage rider.

Let's hope we see a truly competent and able team from AMU next year in the Delhi Horse Show and the administration takes some keen interest for getting the standards high of the riders and horses. Atleast every year, riders should be motivated to attend the Delhi Horse Show to see the level of Horsemanship that is required of them to compete at the national level.

Lastly let's congratulate Athar Afsar, Salman Sayeed & Aleem Siddiqi for great efforts to keep AMU's presence felt and displaying great horsemanship spirit.

Wishing all the riders good Luck and Bon Voyage to The AMU Riding Club.

Best Regards,

MURC Editorial Team

sandeep. - Need Editor Contact Info Unregistered | Apr-09-08 I was a student of Aligarh University for a very short while. One day in the library I found a magazine called, Equestre - Passions through the window of time.. When I read the magazine, i was fascinated by the AMU Horse Riding Club. I never knew that we had such a facility in the university. The magazine was fabolous, but I do not know why I cannot figure its publication news on the internet. The Editor has made all sincere efforts in compiling such a beautiful book. I could not get the contact of the editor. I thought you probably would guide me to meet such a man. I am working for ND tv and want to show a story of the Horse club and the person who made the magazine. I hope you be able to help. Yours faithfully sandeep. Reply 7   2

Fasihullah Khan - Aleem & others deserve special Unregistered | Apr-15-08 asak. My association with the riding club is very old. some of my relatives have been captain's of this club and i had been its member in the late seventies. after leaving the club in the early eighties, I used to see this little boy of AMU Riding Club Coach Mr. Salim Siddiqi. He was polite, respectful and a very decent jolly fellow. Later I was informed that he became a famous Captain of the Riding club and from the last 8 years have been coaching school students in the art of horsemanship. His sentiments and efforts to represent AMU on his personal horses and army procured horses is definitely taken in high regard from the AMU Riding Club alumni. The University should make special efforts to award this fine gentleman and the two others for keeping the flag of AMU high. All those who read and who have had any association with the club should also come forward to appreciate them and willing to lend a supporting hand so that such efforts are continued in the future. Keep attaining heights. good luck. Md. Fasihullah Khan Delhi Reply 4   0

Haider Abbas - hey man great efforts !!! hats Unregistered | Apr-15-08 it is the moment to cheer !! for us we once again we have showed the true spirits of horsemenship !! we have been doing it time and again . Never mind what we have achieved is precious then having medals. We are always known for our talents once again we have proved ourselves in front of Indian army that even in the worst case we are the best. I pay my respect to these army men who have always supported us according to them for MURC boys RIDING is passion and duty for us . But I fear if something is not evolved as policy regarding the participation in the shows then days are not far people will forget our names and soon these talents will become Legacies for MURC and we will become history.
