The four-year-old mare Money Penny became champion of the four- to seven-year-old dressage mares at the Central Inspection at de Mortel last weekend. ”A more than sufficiently developed mare, she has a very good trot in which she remains remarkably well closed. Her flexibility in movement is also very positive”, commented inspector Bart Bax. Money Penny’s dam performs in the international Small Tour.
Money Penny (Everdale x Krack C) was declared ‘ster’ with 80/85 and became now ‘voorlopig keur’. The mare is bred by Miléna Aubry and owned by Maarten and Nicole Donkers.

A foal inspection was organized at the very busy Central Inspection of North Brabant. Second placed was the Kjento son Ravian (out of the NMK champion Terlia keur IBOP-dres pref by Krack C) of breeder I.P.S. Horse Group from Elshout. Last February the mother of this foal, bred via embryo transfer, passed away. “This son of Terlia was born at the beginning of June and has a lot of charisma. He has a nice forehand and good muscling. He has a good walk, has an extra canter and showed a lot of technique and an uphill tendency in the trot.”
Ruby Rouge Bek (Glamourdale out of Moulin Rouge elite IBOP-dres D-OC by Bojengel, breeder Stal de Bekelaar of Kessel) of co-breeder R.H.J. Janssen from Angeren. “This foal also has a nice forehand, good withers and shoulders and a solid foundation. She moves with good tact and a lot of flexibility.”
Both foals have been invited for the National Foal Inspection in Ermelo.
Today the first group of riders will ride their Grand Prix at the Olympic Games in Tokyo. Due to a new format, a group division has been made, so that the riders are divided into 6 groups. In today’s first group, Charlotte Fry and Everdale were allowed to start as 8th.
With an unparalleled test and an international personal best of 77.096%, they managed to take the lead in this group. Since this test is also the qualification for the Grand Prix Freestyle to music and the first two of the group are allowed to pass, she has placed herself!
