In the tough 1.55m Grand Prix of Geesteren, homebred Icoon vdl (Bubalu x Cardento, mare B-Dame VDL) was the first combination after 40 starters to jump a clear round. Out of a total of 48 starts, 3 combinations ended up in the jump-off. Icoon VDL and Hessel Hoekstra had the fastest time, but one pole down put them in second place, a top result!
