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.
