The 16-year-old Cardento daughter Katanga vh Dingeshof and Nicola Philippaerts delivered a top performance, claiming victory in the Global Champions Tour Grand Prix of Shanghai and taking home an incredible €200,000! Earlier in the week the duo also proved to be in top shape, with a second place individual and third place with the team. The Cardento-daughter is bred by Jaak Vermeulen.
Also shining in the ring, Elysium — a son of Zirocco Blue — secured a strong 7th place with Hans-Dieter Dreher in the saddle. Manfred Tummes is the breeder of Elysium and took the sixth place with the team.
Congratulations to the riders, grooms, trainers, owners, and of course the breeders!
