The Belgian Young Horse show circuit came to end last weekend with the 2014 Belgian Young Horse Championships held at the equestrian centre in Gesves, Belgium, on 10 - 12 October 2014. The 4-year old Quaterdance, the 5-year old El Capone and the 6-year old Double Dutch were the winners of the national young horse title.
The format for the Belgian Young Horse Championships demanded from the youngsters to contest no less than three tests on three days. All youngsters had to do two qualification rounds, ridden on Friday and Saturday, and the top 10 highest scoring horses were invited to the Finals on Sunday. The points of all three rounds were totalled to determine the overall winner.
In the 4-year old division Amandine Prevost produced a double whammy aboard the South German licensed stallion Quaterdance (by Quaterback x Expose), bred and owned by S.A. Montaigu. Prevost and Quaterdance won the 2014 French Young Horse Championships and now added the Belgian title to their list of achievements after winning the first two rounds (80.40 and 83.60) and placing second in the finals (77.20). The reserve title went to Julie Dossin's Dutch bred First Lady (by Sir Donnerhall I x Johnson). The pair moved from 4th place (75.00) to third (80.60) and back to a fourth in the finals (76,200) but points added up, it put her in second place. Larissa Pauluis and the Dutch bred Fame (by Bordeaux) landed the bronze with 75.60, 75.80 and 78.80.
In the 5-year old division Belgium's representatives at the World Young Horse Championships in Verden took centre stage. Tom Heylen and his Dutch stallion El Capone (by Tuschinski x Camus) were unbeatable, winning the first two rounds with 88.00, 84.00 and placing second in the final round with 82.40. Dominique Mohimont and the Dutch gelding El Corona Texel (by Wynton x Goodtimes) were the silver medallists with 81.60 (2nd), 80.80 (2nd) and 77.40 (3rd). Tom Heylen and his second ride, the Belgian warmblood gelding Jerrez H (by Stedinger x Wundermeyer) slotted in third overall with 74.40 (18th), 77.60 (3rd) and 85.20 (1st).
Nick van Laer and the bay Dutch warmblood bred Double Dutch (by Jazz x Wisconsin) reigned supreme in the 6-year old division, winning all three rounds with 87.80, 83.20 and 82.60 points. Fanny Verliefden and the Belgian warmblood Indoctro (by Rubin Royal x Gribaldi) were the reserve champions after placing fourth (80.00) and second twice (80.80 and 81.00). Isabelle De Cock and the KWPN bred Dinka (by Florencio x Flemmingh) were the bronze medallists with 80.80, 79.80 and 76.60 in the final round.
