Kayal du Perchet, Dandy de la Roche and Don Camillo II became the winners of the Swiss Young Horse Championships in Avenches, Switzerland, on 17 - 19 September 2010. These national championships are restricted to Swiss warmblood registered horses and the event also included an M and S-level dressage championships as well as a foal championships of which the winners in the dressage division were Orla vom Loo and San Valentino.
Swiss Gilles Ngovan swept the board in three championship divisions. Besides winning the M-level (with licensed stallion Del Cuero) and S-level championship (aboard Dream of Night Fluswiss), Ngovan dominated the 4-year old division aboard Kayal du Perchet, a GB Konvally x Akribori offspring. The combination scored 8.66 and left all competition behind them. Markus Graf and the Swiss licensed stallion Weltjunge (by Weltfeuer x Linaro) finished second with 8.40 points.
Antonella Joannou and the 5-year old Dandy de la Roche (by Dressage Royal x Welt Disney) created a big gap in the 5-year old division by fending off last year's 4-year champion Bugatti G (by Belissimo M x Rohdiamant) with 0.41 points. Joannou scored a total of 8.57 and referred Markus Graf and Bugatti to the reserve champion's position.
A similar scenario occurred in the 6-year old championship as Pascale Hauenstein and Don Camillo II (by Dressage Royal x Hill Hawk xx) captured the national title with 71.35 points and pushed the 5-year old champion of 2009, Darko of De Niro (by De Niro x Gagneur), to a second place. Sandra Meier and Darko scored 69.98 points.
The 2010 Swiss Warmblood Foal Championship was won by Orla vom Loo (by Sir Donnerhall x Don Corleone) in the filly category and San Valentino (by San Amour x Granulit) in the colt division.
