The stallion Alicante, auctioned at Foal Auction Prinsjesdag, will compete under his Belgian rider Jérôme Guery at the prestigious CHIO Aachen competition. In recent months, the Casall son Alicante has strongly started his international advance, accompanied by many victories. At the world's most prominent competition in Aachen, Alicante can compete with the absolute world top over the toughest courses.
The seven-year-old Mr. Europe (Mr. Blue x Cassini I) showed again at Outdoor Gelderland that he is made of the right stuff. Under Marc Houtzager, the impressive stallion jumped double clear every day, including an excellent performance in the 1.40m. mr. Europe was auctioned in 2009 at Foal Auction Prinsjesdag.
The Belgian Frederik Cattebeke and the only nine-year-old Caesar (Lucky Boy x Corland) jumped to an impressive third place in the CSI3* Grand Prix of Bonheiden last weekend.

A great achievement!
In the Furusiyya FEI Nations Cup last Friday in Rotterdam, Bonne Chance CW (Baloubet du Rouet x Cambridge) and Janika Sprunger made a significant contribution to Switzerland's second place.

The four-year-old Heliotrop HBZ (Tornesch x Calvados) was again the winner of a selection match of the Wolden Cup last Friday under rider Kim Bouten. After their victory in Staphorst, Heliotrop HBZ in Nieuwleusen once again convinced the jury and scored 25 points. Another convincing victory for the breeding product of H. Zagers, which was sold at Foal Auction Prinsjesdag 2012.
At the impressive Glock CSI5* Treffen competition, Alicante and his Belgian rider Jérôme Guery showed their good side again. The beautiful gray stallion of Casall jumped to fourth place on the opening day and only dropped one bar in his third five-star Grand Prix.
The KWPN-approved stallion Alicante has jumped from one top ranking to another under Jérôme Guery in recent months, but especially in the important secondary classes at the five-star competitions. Now the breeding product of Ron Nowee of Stoeterij 't Maalwater seems to have made the switch to the Grand Prix level and it is only a matter of time until the first victory is a fact. Foal Auction Prinsjesdag: the Power of Performance!
