When watching Carlos and Hannah Erbe from their first steps at the warm-up arena, to their finishing halt by the test, they are just showing it their way.
From the warm-up Carlos is not a spectacular starter, and it looks like Hannah just gives him the time to warm up and getting supple is his body. And not until the very last minutes Hannah is not asking for any special moments during their warm up. But your not in doubt about the plan when watching them entering the arena to do their test. Lot´s of supple positive power for the entire trot and canter tour, as the walk tour becomes a bit limited with bit unbalanced moments. But still fully deserved GOLD winner today.
British Charlotte Fry has developed amazingly under the sharp eyes from her daily boss and trainer Anne van Olst. And together with Dark Legend they can celebrate a great 6th place for today´s final.
It´s been some exciting weeks for the young British rider, as she also just rode successfully at the World Championships for young horses in Ermelo, and now goes back home to Van Olst Horses to pack for Pavo Cup finals in Ermelo.
Until the very last competitor today German Semmieke Rothenberger and her Danish Warmblood mare Geisha were ready for their individual medal for this years championships. But no luck for them this year, as the bronze medal went to Dutch Jasmien de Koeyer with Esperanza.
