mr. Europe and Marc Houtzager third in 1.45m Oliva
The only eight-year-old stallion Mr. Europe (Mr. Blue x Cassini I) and top rider Marc Houtzager finished third in the 1.45m ranking class in Oliva last weekend. The Mr. Europe seems to be developing to the absolute top level.
The by Stud Renken bred Mr. Last year Europe had many top placings under Marc Houtzager in the international classes for seven-year-olds. Now Mr. Europe already continued these results at 1.45m level.
In addition, Gigolo III (Cassini II x Chin Chin), sold on Prinsjesdag, also performed well under the saddle of Swiss Rachel Sandoz. The chestnut won a 1.40m class in Oliva. The Colman descendant Baron did excellent under the Italian Roberto Turchetto in the Italian Arezzo. Baron jumped consistently all week and finished sixth in a CSI3* 1.40m class.
