2012 Pavo Cup Finals

Dutch young horse specialist Emmelie Scholtens produced a double victory at the 2012 Pavo Cup Finals in Ermelo, The Netherlands, today, winning the 4-year old Finals with Desperado and the 5-year old Finals with Charmeur. Guest judge rider Eva Möller gave both horses a 10 for rideability and potential.

Desperado and Charmeur were both in the lead after the semi finals, which took place at the KWPN Paardendagen on Tuesday 14 August and this morning they continued to dominate the first part of the Finals. The three best scoring horses in both age divisions after the semi finals and round 1 of the finals moved onwards to the second round in which they were test ridden by German Möller.

In the 4-year old division Desperado (by Vivaldi x Havidoff) topped the leader board in all three rounds. Under guest judge rider Möller, the black stallion also excelled, especially in canter, and got a 10 from Moller. Spanish Severo Jurado Lopez steered Diego (by Negro x Don Gregory) to the reserve champion's title. This licensed stallion demonstrated great ability to collect and got a 9 from Eva for rideability and potential. The mare Diva (by Vivaldi x Gribaldi) finished third and got an 8 from the guest judge. The 2012 KWPN spring performance test winner Don Tango (by Contango) was unable to make it to the end round and finished 16th overall with 155.5 points.

Emmelie Scholtens on Charmeur The drop dead gorgeous chestnut stallion Charmeur (by Florencio x Jazz) was unbeatable in the 5-year old division, earning 10s for his trot, canter, self carriage and suppleness in the first round of the finals. Eva Möller also awarded the stallion a 10 for rideability and potential. The best scoring Dutch horse at the 2012 World Young Horse Championships, Capri Sonne (by Rhodium x San Remo), finished second in the 2012 Pavo Cup Finals, earning 9 from Möller. The bay licensed stallion Cachet L (by Jazz x Ferro) ranked third with a 9 for rideability and potential.
