Our horses performed splendidly at the CSI2* of Opglabbeek from April 29th to May 2nd. 

Epsilon de Brenil was clear and placed every day during the weekend in the 7-year-old classes and finished seventh in the final. Huge progress and regularity for this future 1m50 Grand Prix prospect horse.

Bridgetown was also placed fourth in the 1m35 speed class on Friday.

Our next show with the young horses will be the training in Lummen on the 11th and 12th of May on the amazing grass arena so they keep gaining as much experience as possible for their future sport careers.

And for the older horses, we will be present at the CSI2* in Opglabbeek from the 13th to the 16th of May.

Due to the covid pandemic and the EHV horse virus, the showing season started later than planned for our stable.  

Nevertheless last weekend 15-18 of April we started with the first official 2021 CSI 2* show in the great facilities of Azelhof Events in Lier, Belgium. All horses improved enormously during the last 4 months from the work at home and they impressed everyone with the great performances they had during the last weekend.

The 10-year-old AES mare Bridge Town was 4th in the 1m30 class on Thursday and finish 4th in the CSI 1* GP.

We are looking forward to the upcoming international show in Opglabbeek on 29/04 – 02/05.

First international show with three clear rounds every day and an eighth place in the final for this amazing 8-year-old gelding by l’Arc de Triomphe and Lexi Carter in the young horse classes for 8-year-olds.

Centaure will have a well-deserved little break and he will reappear in the show ring at the Sun Shine Tour next year. Lots of hope in 2021 for this Grand Prix prospect.
