A topresult for Jur Vrieling and VDL Zirocco Blue N.O.P. in the Grand Prix at Aachen today. In this Grand Prix, ridden over 2 rounds the stallion impressed with his jumps and made no jumping faults. Unfortunately there were 2 timefaults which kept him out of the jump-off but finishing in a fantastic 8th place.
The Grand Prix was won by the worlds nr. 1 Hello Sanctos (Quasimodo van de Molendreef x Nabab de Reve) and his rider Scott Brash.
In the Sparkassen Youngster Cup Cassius van de Smis (Cardento x Skippy II), ridden by Marcel Marschall placed 6th.
Another offspring of Cardento that was high placed in Aachen was Matrix (Cardento x Maximus). Ridden by José María Larocca he placed 5th in a 1.45m class against the clock.
