Charlotte and Kjento win the first round of the World Championships in Verden

With a massive 94% Charlotte Fry won the first test with Kjento today during the World Championship for young dressage horses in Verden. With the ultimate 10 for trot and canter, a 9.5 for the “submission” and also for the “perspective”, the jury members were deeply impressed by the fantastic black stallion Kjento (breeder AJ van Os from Sprang Capelle). He absolutely mastered this difficult test with full concentration and it seemed to be no effort at all for the duo. Today’s No. 2 was 2% away, the No. 3 a huge 10% behind them.

On Saturday, this special duo will once again be in action during the final of the 6-year-old dressage horses.

Kenndale (s. Everdale) best gelding in the final of the Pavo Cup

Everdale-son Kenndale (mother Amerette elite EPTM-dres D-OC by Special D, bred by W.G.M. van Driel) was the best gelding in the Pavo Cup final for 6-years old. Together with his rider Nora van Houtem they rode a super test!

Nice performance of Lantanas and Klaproos in the final of the Pavo Cup

Yesterday the final of the Pavo Cup took place in Ermelo. Charlotte Fry competed here with the stallion Lantanas in the 5 year old class and with the mare Klaproos in the 6 year old class.

Lantanas (Sir Donnerhall x Hemmingway, breeder: S.A.C. Kleuskens) showed himself very well. We were very pleased with his performance!

Klaproos (Glamourdale x Ampère, breeder: CHR. M. Snepvangers) also did a super job and scored high points for her trot and canter. A misunderstanding about the changes unfortunately reduced the score, but we have high expectations for this mare!
