Lady Mc Beth DH, 9th in the Grand Prix of CSI** Bonheiden, only 7 years old..

We are really proud of our 7-years old mare, Lady Mc Beth DH (Limbus x Carthago).
She was jumping this weekend in the CSI** of Bonheiden. There were a lot of good riders and horses, and it gave us the opportunity to see Cyber van Vrijhern again, who was jumping with the American rider Tiffany Foster.

We have sold some nice competition horses, and we are working with our young horses to try to bring them on a higher level. This weekend, the surprise came from Lady Mc Beth DH. We didn't think she was ready for a difficult class like the Grand Prix of Bonheiden, but we knew it could be a good experience.
There were 71 starters in the Grand Prix, and only 8 went to the jump off. Also Patrik Spits and Lady Mc Beth stayed clear on the fences, but it took 0.11 seconds too long. Just one timepenalty, a beautiful 9th place, and the first FEI rankingpoints, not bad for a horse of 7 years old.
We hope we can compete later this year in Zangersheide with Lady Mc Beth and Uletta at the World Championships of young horses. We will see..

Diamanthina, Southwind, Bariano, Walnut de Muze, Prince vd Wolfsakker, Jubilée, Utopia vd Donkhoeve, Lady Mc Beth DH.
That's the result of the Grand Prix of Bonheiden. Quite a beautiful list to make part of.
Diamanthina won the Grand Prix with Niels Bruynseels before Tiffany Foster and Southwind.

Some other horses did also nice results this weekend.
Rapsody DH (dam of Va-Vite) was 7th in the Cup of Belgium Juniors with Maxim De Roeck.
Two other horses of 7 years old of our stable, went to the regional Championships in Overijse, with Thibault Lejeune, son of Philippe. Uphelia DH (Lapaco x Grundyman) managed to win the 1.25m final. Ulano DH (Cento Lano x Gotspé) was placed 8th in the 1.35m Grand Prix.
