Quinoa de la Linière seems to be yet another product from the first crop of Mosito van het Hellehof to make it in the sport. With Koen, she jumped to second place in the GP2* of Oliva last weekend. Oleksander Prodan jumped to ninth place riding Olympia Ter Doorn (s. Scendro).
Koen also had two of our 6-year-old stallions with him in Oliva: True Colors de la Linière and Tellini van ‘t Ruytershof. He recorded one or more clear rounds with both stallions, which shows a lot of promise for the future.
Also in Oliva, Jérôme Guery was the fastest in a ranking class with Jyrado vh Bovenhoekshof (s. Cera d'Ick). They finished just ahead of Mathieu Guery on Falko Ste Hermelle (s. Vigo d'Arsouilles) and Petronella Andersson on Olympke van ‘t Merelsnest (s. Vigo d'Arsouilles). Jérôme Guery also won another ranking class riding Remus de Mariposa (s. Lector vd Bisschop) and came second with Jyrado in a 1.45m class. At 1.40m level there was a second place for Lou Puch on Malito (s. Malito de Rêve).
Leipzig
Kevin Staut and Vida Loca Z (s. Vigo d'Arsouilles) rushed to fifth place in a 1.55m class in Leipzig. Marbella du Chabli (s. Elvis Ter Putte) also made her mark by finishing third in the Championat of Leipzig with Giacomo Casadei. In one of the side classes, Ines Villmann-Doll took third place in a 1.40m class with Duchesse de Beaufour (s. Malito de Rêve).
Abu Dhabi
The World Cup race in Abu Dhabi was surprisingly won by Guido Grimaldi on Gentleman (s. Vigo d'Arsouilles). Over 1.40m there was a third place for Sara Hussein Saleh Al Armouti with Gladiator-P (s. Nabab de Rêve).
Wellington
Princess Dalou H (s. Vigo d'Arsouilles) was piloted to victory by McLain Ward in a 1.50m class in Wellington. Ariana Marnell and Jikke-Cara (s. Denzel van ‘t Meulenhof) were good for two third-place finishes in the U25 classes over 1.45m, including the GP.
Doha
At the CSI4* in Doha, Duarte Seabra and Van Halen Z (s. Vigo d'Arsouilles) took fourth place in a 1.50m class. Earlier this duo also took a close placing over 1.40m, as did Anastasia Bondareva riding Virunga H Z (s. Vigo d'Arsouilles). In the CSI2* classes, Meshari Alharbi rushed to fifth place in the GP with Hi There (s. Nabab de Rêve). Annabel Francis and Nebraska van ‘t Vianahof (s. Elvis Ter Putte) finished ninth. Jeanne Sadran signed for another fifth place at 1.45m on Funky Boy des Rêves (s. Vigo d'Arsouilles).

Maurice Van Roosbroeck and Emir du Cœur des Collines (s. Elvis Ter Putte) finished seventh in the GP2* of Lier. Also at Azelhof, there were close placings over 1.40m for Sarah Dhennin on Milano du Jaolas Z (s. Mosito van het Hellehof) and Kevin Jochems on Looks Good de Liebri Z (s. Lector vd Bisschop).
Ocala

In memoriam
Unfortunately, there is not only good news to report this week. As part of our collaboration with JW Stables, some of our young stallions were stabled there, such as Vegas de Muze and both Wales JW van de Moerhoeve and Walisco de Muze, recently presented at the BWP inspection. They unfortunately did not survive the recent stable fire.
