Last weekend, there was a problem with an injury on the skin of Ultra Boy. That's why he didn't jump on Saturday and on Sunday in Lisbon.
This weekend, it was better already, but Patrik decided to take it easy with Ultra Boy, who is only 7 years old.
In Vimeiro, only 40 riders can jump the Grand Prix.
In the first qualification on Thursday, Withney had 2 faults, but worse is that she has injured herself. She didn't jump yesterday, and let's hope that she can jump today or tomorrow. We won't take any risk. It's not so bad at the moment.
Sherlock jumped the second qualification. He had bad luck on one fence...
It 's a good experience for Sherlock.
We are not expecting the big results this weekend, but we are hoping to see the horses next Tuesday, here in Belgium. Have a nice and safe trip back!
The third week in Spain-Portugal, maybe a week too long..
After the very good results of his horses in Madrid and Lisbon, we were hoping that the results at the showjumping in Vimeiro could be good as well.Last weekend, there was a problem with an injury on the skin of Ultra Boy. That's why he didn't jump on Saturday and on Sunday in Lisbon.
