The Upgrade-offspring Cuplandra keeps on winning prizes. At the CSI5*-W
in Bordeaux she won 5.000 euro for her rider Carlos Enrique Lopez, with
whom she jumped a stunning clear round in the 1m45 class. Only the legendary
rider Scott Brash was faster, so Lopez and Cuplandra ended up second.
At the national show in Heiden, Germany, Hendrik Dowe competed with
Donnergirl 19 (Donthargos x Lupicor, bred by Michael Steinbrecher), making
a strong impression.
Emanuele Gaudiano secured an Italian victory last Saturday with Vasco
118, a son of Vivant van de Heffinck. At the CSI5* in Fontainebleau, they
were the undisputed winners of the Table A 1.50m class.
