Arc de Triomphe, Gigolo III and Costa Date deliver strong international performance

Last weekend, the horses Arc de Triomphe, Gigolo III and Costa Date, auctioned at the Prinsjesdag Foal Auction, jumped to good international rankings. Arc de Triomphe (Triomphe de Muze x Calvados) under Frank Schuttert showed good things at the beautiful youth competition at the Tops International Arena in Valkenswaard, while Gigolo III (Cassini II x Chin Chin) under Rachel Sandoz and Costa Date (Vingino x Quidam de Revel) under Hannah Selleck started in Knokke.

Frank Schuttert and Arc de Triomphe concluded their excellent weekend in Valkenswaard with a nice fourth place in the U25 1,40m on Sunday afternoon. Swiss rider Rachel Sandoz also finished fourth last weekend with Gigolo III. At Knokke Hippique in the CS2* 1.45m class for Amazons only, Rachel Sandoz and Gigolo III finished in fourth place.

American rider Hannah Selleck secured a victory with Costa Date. Selleck recently took over the nine-year-old gray from Mexican Juan Pablo Gaspar Albañez and immediately jumped to first place in Knokke in a two-star 1.40m class.
