Three young Grand Prix horses with top performances at national event at Wickrath

Wickrath was ready with a small event with just 5 classes this weekend. And for international rider Patrik Kittel it was a really nice way to test his young upcoming stars after very long time just training at home.

Saturday was debut at Intermediaire II level for Swedish bred 9 year old Touchdown by Quaterback / Sack with impressive 79,386%. No exercise weaknesses and a very attractive side picture all the way. Still lacking more strength for the passage and transitions, but for sure a natural talent for piaffe with a very lovely sit and balance.

Sunday with first and second in Short Grand Prix

Back in March 2020 Patrik Kittel purchased the now 9 year old mare Forever Young HRH by Fürst Fugger / from Caroline Burema. Burema has successfully competed the mare at small tour level. Power off the ground with lot of quality all the way, still a bit green for the piaffe tours at the spot. Immediate impression - the modern and better mover edition of Weihegold OLD. Forever Young is co-owned by Arlette Jasper (owner of Sezuan). 78,023%

2nd placed today also Kittel. This time with 11 year old stallion Bonamour by Bonifatius / Rousseau owned by Helgstrand Dressage. Also here with overall very nice qualities with big quality series and expressive piaffe. 76.550%.

Here you find the entire results.

Watch "The Story of Van Olst Horses" - a good stallion is for both breeding and top sport

Screen%2BShot%2B2021-04-09%2Bat%2B21.08.46.jpg

Knowledge and passion

It all started with successful jumping stallions for Gertjan van Olst as later on brought him to Denmark where he met Anne. Together they’ve developed a very successful business in not just dressage breeding, but also counting some of the most successful dressage stallions competing at international top level.

The filosofi of bringing breeding and top sport together has been a clear line over the years for Gertjan and Anne van Olst, and your not in doubt about their knowledge and passion for the horses when watching “The Story of Van Olst Horses”.

With their “in-house” British top rider Charlotte Fry and ex. their cooperation with Spanish International rider Severo Jurado Lopez, the goals for Van Olst Horses are obvious also to be part of the international top sport.
