Young horses

A lot of young offspring by I'm Special de Muze made quite the impression at the various international competitions last week. Think for example of the six-year-olds Monks I Am Casall (Graham Babes) and Justify (Abbe Burchmore-Eames) in Valencia. In Lier, we noted an excellent performance by seven-year-old Newton DB (Katie Pytches). Tara Glynn and Inschalla C Z performed well in Vilamoura, as did David Simpson on I'm Special Too Dhh.

The progeny by Scendro equally continues to do well. Sisse de Tiji Z impressed in Valencia with Mariano Martinez Bastida in the competition for six-year-olds. Princess Dalou H (s. Vigo d'Arsouilles) did the same with Julie De Pelsmaeker in the classes for five-year-olds. Among the seven-year-olds, it was up to Darkness Breeding (s. Nabab de Rêve) to perform well with Franck Curti.

Home Run PL (s. Filou de Muze, Philippe Le Jeune) and Nikita de Roton (s. Elvis Ter Putte, Margareth Eikner) jumped clear in the seven-year-olds competition in Lier. O'Neil de Yeselo (s. Elvis Ter Putte) equalled that performance among the six-year-olds with Johan Wenselaers, as did Molly Davies on Kokonut van de Nethe Z (s. Kasanova de la Pomme).

Vertigo Z (s. Vigo d'Arsouilles) was the star of seven-year-olds competition in Vejer de la Frontera with Ignace Philips de Vuyst. Also Gianluca Gennusa on Nelson van de Moorskeshoeve (s. Elvis Ter Putte), Brieanne Dofort on Nanou van het Dennehof (s. Elvis Ter Putte), Sylvie Liebing on Important (s. Nabab de Rêve), Derin Demirsoy on Scenorrado vd Hunters Z (v. Scendro), Nicolas Bidon Daurella on Impressive K (v. Vigo d'Arsouilles) and Jessica Burke on Namamia (v. Fantomas de Muze) jumped one or more rounds without faults. Among the six-year-olds, there was a clear round for Jacques Jochins Fernandes and Jalalabad de Rêve (s. Nabab de Rêve).

In Vilamoura finally, Hugo Tavares had excellent results in the classes for six-year-olds with Boomerang vh Waterschoot Z (s. Bamako de Muze). Also Obelia vd Bisschop (s. Nabab de Rêve) with Jackson Reed Stephenson and Ozoir de Muze (s. Vigo d'Arsouilles) with Libby Newman jumped well.

Wellington, Deeridge Farm

The performance of the weekend came from Jessica Springsteen and Don Juan van de Donkhoeve (s. Bamako de Muze). The duo jumped to fifth place in Wellington's GP5* at the Palm Beach Masters.

At the two-star competition, there was a fourth place (1.40m) for Stephanie Gallucci with Sea Coast B52 F Z, also by Bamako de Muze.

Lier

The only nine-year-old Nabeau van het Migroveld Z (s. Nabab de Rêve) seems to become a future star for Niels Bruynseels. At their first outing together, they immediately became ninth in the GP2* of Lier. Thibeau Spits and Bellissimo Z (s. Bamako de Muze) finished on eight.

Also at Azelhof, Francisco Rocha came fourth in a 1.40m class with Kipling van 't Hagenhof (s. Nabab de Rêve).

Sunshine Tours

In Vejer de la Frontera Jane Richard Philips won on Fouégo de la Closiere (s. Nabab de Rêve) in a 1.45m class. Omer Karaevli and Gotham City PL (s. Filou de Muze) were third in a 1.40m class and Aiko Paridaen on Libelle de Muze (s. Elvis Ter Putte) were fifth, also in a 1.40m class.

A fourth place was the result for Mikael Forsten with Nabab's Atlanto (s. Nabab de Rêve) over 1.45m in Valencia and finally, Jérôme Guery and Great Britain V (s. Nabab de Rêve) finished third in a 1.40m class in Oliva.

Hunters

Our breeding products are not only able to jump in the regular competitions, also in the hunter categories they make themselves noticed. Lafitte de Muze for example, was recently crowned WCHR Hunter of the Year in the USA.

Z-France

To finish this overview, we mention that our future star Special Cera du Maillet Z was approved for Zangersheide last weekend. Two sons by Vigo d'Arsouilles and one by I'm Special de Muze also got the green light in Deauville.
