2010 Spanish Young Horse Championships

The Dutch warmbloods Bently and Artouche and the Hanoverian branded Delmonte won the 2010 Spanish Young Horse Championships held at Julia Hernandez Damian's Yeguada San Jose 1 - 3 October 2010. With more than 160 entries at this event, the Spanish championships were a well attended event.

The 4-year old dressage horse division was won by Alfonso Parra Rubio aboard the Dutch warmblood Bently (by Scandic). The smoothness and consistency of the pair led them to the national title, even though they experienced much competition from Juan Antonio Vazquez Rico on the Hanoverian mare Havanna (by His Highness) who won the first round, but dropped to an overall fourth place after a mediocre second round in which the horse had some problems with the canter work.

Jose Raga Perales and the liver chestnut Dutch warmblood Artouche (by United) bested the field in the 5-year old division. The combination won the first two rounds but were beaten in the third round by Angel Dorado on the PRE Leviton (by Panameno IV). The overall 5-year old champion's title, however, went to Raga with 346,400% points in total.

Jose Daniel Martin Dockx and his Hanoverian Delmonte were the champions in the 6-year old age category. The black with white stockings and blaze improved with each round and scored a total of 350,800% to refer Juan Manuel Acosta Ponce on the 2008 Verden auction horse Der Ebbinger to the reserve champion's place (343,000% pts).
