From the preliminary test My Vitality by Vivaldi / D-Day (full brother of Vitalis and bred in The Netherlands) and Eric stood out even though they came 2nd but for the final they also clearly convinced the judges, and from the “side line” their scoring looked liked an average of at least 9,5. Super supple, well balanced, obedient and attentive. A very exciting stallion for the future sport and with Spanish rider Eric Guardia Martinez in the saddle they look like the perfect match.
Scores: Trot 9.4 - walk 9 - canter 9.4 - ride ability 9.7 - capacity 9.5 = total 94.00

No surprice that Danish Warmblood World Champion combination Hesselhøj Down Town by Hesselhøj Donkey Boy / Blue Hors Zack (bred by Dorthe Sjøbeck Hoeck and Hans Jørgen Hoeck) with Jeanna Högberg also took the Danish national title with nearly maximum score. From the “side line” Jeanna is able to let go and Down Town is just cruising around fully balanced all the way just in a bit to high speed.
Scores: Trot 10 - walk 9.6 - canter 9.8 - ride ability 9.8- capacity 10 = Total 98.400

Danish Warmblood silver medal mare Sweetnes by Blue Hors St. Schufro / Tailormade Lancelot (bred by Lisbeth B. Andersen) with Silje Bakken in the saddle were on top form today and really showed their qualities and potential together. Recently they just didn’t have the luck and some tiny issues made their top placements stay away. This mare just brings so much power and super overall qualities. They came into the finals from a 5th place in the preliminary round.
Scores: Trot 8.9 - walk 9.2 - canter 9.5 - ride ability 9 - capacity 9.3 - Total = 91.800

Marianne Helgstrand and Danish Warmblood gelding Eleverhøjs Raccolto by Sezuan / Sandro Hit (bred by Berith Nielsen) were well deserved at top of the scoreboard when finishing the 7 year old class today.
They recently finish WCYH in Verden with a 5th place in the final and a great 2nd spot from preliminary round after her husband Andreas Helgstrand with Jovian.
Scores: Trot 9.6 - walk 8.3 - canter 10 - ride ability 9.5 - capacity 9.6 = Total 94.000 - program 80.385% = 87.193
