Victory in Madrid and Top Form at Home for Team Bruynseels
It was another successful and important weekend for Niels, both on the international stage and at home in Belgium, where the peak of the breeding season is in full swing at Stal Bruynseels.
During the Madrid leg of the Global Champions League, Niels once again played a key role for the Prague Lions. Together with teammates Fernando Martinez Sommer and Thibeau Spits, the team secured an impressive victory in the Spanish capital.
A brilliant clear round with Oaky Flandria proved crucial in helping the Prague Lions climb to the top step of the podium, in front of an enthusiastic Madrid crowd. The result once again highlighted the consistency and fighting spirit of both horse and rider at the highest level of the sport.
While the international season continues at full speed, things are equally busy back home at Stal Bruynseels during one of the most important periods of the year: breeding season. Two of the exciting stallions from the NB Stallions roster, Vintage and Topgun NS, also impressed last weekend at the CSI2* show in Lier with outstanding performances and quality rounds, showing they are in excellent form both sport-wise and for breeding.
Vintage continues to confirm why he is considered one of the most exciting young stallions of his generation. The Belgian Champion delivered another series of eye-catching rounds, combining carefulness, scope and an exceptional mentality.
Meanwhile, Topgun NS once again showcased his quality and power in the ring, proving why he has quickly become one of the standout names of the breeding season.
Both stallions are available with fresh semen at Stal Bruynseels during this 2026 breeding season.
Niels and the entire team would like to thank everyone behind the scenes at Stal Bruynseels for their daily hard work and dedication throughout this busy period. A special thank you also goes to all partners and sponsors for their continued support during both the sport and breeding season.
