Success on Asperden’s grass arena with two wins and numerous placings

A very short journey, plenty of success and excellent competition conditions: Once again, our visit to our neighbouring club, von Driesen Asperden-Kessel, proved more than worthwhile. On the beautiful grass arena, our horses showed themselves in great form with numerous clear rounds, placings and a special highlight on Sunday afternoon: Brilliant Balou and Petros won the Grand Prix. A huge compliment to the entire organising team: With great passion and attention to detail, they created a wonderful show where both horses and riders felt completely at home. It is always special to have such a great event right on our doorstep.

Our results in detail:
