In the first week of the Toscane Tour in Arezzo, H&M Tornesch
(s.Lux from Ninerta ster s. Libero H, breeder Anneke Noordhof-Nieborg from
Kropswolde) achieved to win the 1.45m two-phases course.
Swedish Malin Baryard rode the stallion flawlessly through the course in
the fastest time, so she ended nearly two seconds faster than Natale Chiaudani.
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.
