Dutch rider Ben Schröder competed his KWPN stallion Unaniem (Numero
Uno x Voltaire) at the CSI*** show in Vidauban (France) last weekend.
They started the show on Friday by winning the Grand Prix qualifier, a
1.50m jump-off class. They also performed well in the Grand Prix, after
a fantastic clear round, an unfortunate 4 faults in the jump-off put them
in fifth place.
The offspring of Numero Uno were in top form again last week. Nero Z
(ds.Lupicor, bred by Stal Meulendijks in Nuenen) claimed victory in the
1.45m two-phase class at CSI2* Vejer de la Frontera with Mans Thijssen.
Eduardo Alvarez Aznar added another strong result to the record of the
French-bred D’Orient Batilly. With this gelding, sired by Numero Uno and
bred by Jean-Claude Viollet (ds.Quaprice Bois Margot), the Spanish rider
secured second place in the 1.50m Grand Prix at CSI3* Valencia.
