During the horseshow in Exloo, a preliminary round was held for the well-known Subli Cup. In the five-year-old division the victory went to Giovanni’s son Madison Eve. The competition in Exloo was judged by judges Mascha Reijs and Linda Kanninga, who look back on the competition with satisfaction. The judges quickly agreed on the winner. Linda explains: “Madison Ave ridden by Kim Alting is a very nice horse with a lot of suppleness and good gaits. This combination showed a very neat and fine test and was the clear winner of this division for us.

The first Central Inspection of the season took place in Limburg. A class for foals was also organized during this inspection. For the final, 5 foals were allowed to return. In second place, and also invited for the National Foal Inspection in Ermelo, was the young filly Soof Osterbos (Kjento out of Hera Sollenburg elite IBOP-dres PROK by Bretton Woods) of breeders Floor Dröge and Remco Zuidam. “This filly has a lot of presence and charisma. She has a nice forehand and a good model. Especially the first round she was able to convince with her balance, self-carriage and way of movement. Her canter is big and she has a good balance.” The also young Sabine (Lantanas out of Black Magic by Van the Man) of A. de Crom finished third and can also prove herself in Ermelo. “This foal has a lot of charisma and has long legs. She moves with a lot of space, flexibility and balance.”
Breeders congratulations and good luck in Ermelo!

Last weekend the annual CDI took place on the beautiful dressage grounds in Compiegne. During this CDI, various 3* and 5* classes were held.
Our top stallion Glamourdale, together with Charlotte Fry, entered the 5* Grand Prix for the first time in his career. And what a start this was….
79.435%, a first place and again a new PR for this combination!
He scored several 10’s for the extended canter and a 10 was also given for the changes. Glamourdale, bred by Mr. Rodenburg from Ouderkerk aan de Amstel is still young and not very experienced at this level, the further he progresses in the test the better he does, on the last A-C line he even got several nines (!) for his piaffe.
After the Grand Prix, the riders and amazons could choose between the Special or the Freestyle.
Lottie and Glamourdale started in the Special. They also won this test with a score of 76.638%.
