Huge development

The 10-year old Vitalis son Valesco with Fabienne Müller-Lütkemeier showed super qualities today. Much more settled, clearly gained more strength and experience bringing it all more together with power and flow, and you can really feel Fabienne is able to ask and he is responding with power and obedience.

🇩🇪Valesco / Fabienne Müller-Lütkemeier - Good halt, super expressive diagonal, good half passes lack bit balance, super diagonal, super active quality 1st piaffe with transitions, good extended walk, bit tense collected walk, nice 2nd piaffe tour with active easy transitions, super 2 times, nice balanced zigzag, error begin 1 times rest very nice, very nice centerline with good pirouettes, super diagonal, super regular active passage, superb final piaffe, power final passage, super halt.

Top placement for Anna Kasprzak

Danish Anna Kasprzak is back with Rock Star performing a strong test without any technical issues. Super extensions, good passage, nice series, good zigzag and superb pirouettes. Trot half passes lacking more clear flow and balance while the piaffe tours could show more clear and sharp rhythm of the ground.

🇩🇰Rock Star / Anna Kasprzak - Good halt, super power diagonal with nice expression, bit unbalanced half passes, good halt with rein back, super expressive diagonal, good into passage, lack bit clear flow for transitions, good piaffe, good passage, good relaxation for extended walk, good collected walk, good passage, good piaffe, lack clear flow out, good into canter, super 2 times full diagonal, power extended canter, good zigzag, good 1 times tiny tensions, super control and sit 1st pirouette, superb 2nd pirouette, good into trot, power diagonal, good passage, lack bit more at the spot piaffe, good final and nice halt.

Come back

🇳🇱Emmelie Scholtens and Desperado was back in the arena after they had to withdraw from the Olympic selection due to a minor injury. They showed a strong test and now Emmelie shows a small baby belly expecting her first child in January together with her long time partner Jeroen Witte.

On winner track

Charlotte Fry was ready with KWPN stallion Glamourdale and they showed a strong and expressive power trot tour, good passage and piaffe tours, extended walk lacking bit more relaxation, super serie and very well balanced zigzag, power extended canter unfortunately both pirouettes did not succeed as the forward search for the first was missing and Glamourdale becomes hind the aides and a small lack of balance for the second one. Costly and for sure from winner position to 5th place.

🇩🇰Thranegaardens Rostov / Lone Bang Larsen - Solid test without any technical issues, open halt with bit tense rein back, good piaffe / passage tour, lacking bit more strength for transitions, very obedient overall test. Finishing 14 with 70,413%.
