2011 VSN Trophy

The 3-year old NRPS registered mare TC Celanique (by Ravel x Cabochon) won the 2011 VSN Trophy held at the KWPN/KNHS Head quarters in Ermelo, The Netherlands, on 14 January 2011. Under Sjanine van der Jacht the dark bay mare scored 51 points in total and beat Madeleine Witte-Vrees on Chopin.

Afterwards, the five highest scoring horses were test-ridden by Lynne Maas. Celanique scored 8 for walk, 8.5 for trot and canter, 8 for rideability and general impression and test rider Maas gave the mare a 10, which resulted in a winning 51 points.

A full brother to Sue Blinks' Pavo Cup winning Robin Hood, Chopin scored 7.8 for walk, 8.2 for trot, 8.0 for canter, rideability and general impression.
