Tineke Bartels, Dutch pony, junior and young riders' chef d'equipe, has updated her Dutch youth riders' team following the results achieved by several riders at the FEI Pony Cup and CHIO Cup at the national show in Harmelen, The Netherlands. Two riders made a promotion to the A-teams.
Former junior rider Stephanie Kooijman made a successful transition to the Young Riders division aboard her Dutch warmblood gelding Winston (by OO Seven). The pair won the CHIO cup in Harmelen and also performed well at the CDI Drachten. They are now members of the Young Riders A-team.
Pony rider Jelle Peeters achieved her A-team score with new mount, Den Ostriks Dailan. Aboard the Welsh pony gelding (by Leuns Veld Lord), Peeters captured a place on the A-team alongside her other pony Nandor (by Orchard d'Avranches).
