Strong weekend for Ilusionata Van 't Meulenhof!

After the Athina Onasssis Horse Show in St. Tropez, Niels took a lot of horses to the Tops International Arena in Valkenswaard last week, where, in addition to the fourth round of the Longines Global Champions Tour, a two-star competition took place as well.

For the Longines Global Champions Tour classes, he counted on Ilusionata Van 't Meulenhof, among others, and she left a strong impression. On Friday, Niels started her in the first round of the Global Champions League and after a clear round, she earned a 9th place in the individual ranking. During the final day on Sunday, Niels and Ilusionata appeared at the start in the 1.50m main class and this also resulted in a top 10 placing. In a jump-off for which 10 combinations managed to qualify, they again remained clear and their time of 41.12 seconds was good for a 7th place in the ranking.

In Valkenswaard there was also a 7th place for Diornella-D and this on Sunday in the CSI2* GP. Niels and Diornella-D were one of the 14 combinations that managed to keep it clear in the course and also managed to repeat that performance in the jump-off. During the opening day on Friday they had already managed to secure a 13th place in a 1.45m class.

Finally, in Valkenswaard there were also some classes for young horses on the program and Niels was placed twice with Scarlina de Tijji Z. On Friday they started their show with a 10th place and on Sunday during the final they became 6th.
