Successful end to the Mediterranean Equestrian Tour

Gerco Schröder had already spent two weeks in Oliva Nova in Spain with the GLOCK horses, where he had successfully embarked on the outdoor season. On the last weekend of the Mediterranean Equestrian Tour he was again able to add some placings to his tally of success.

So it was that nine-year-old GLOCK’s Debalia twice remained penalty-free in the CSI3* tests of the Gold Tour (1.30/1.45 m), taking places 5 and 16. The same-aged son of Cornet Obolensky, GLOCK’s Dobelensky, showed his talent in the CSI1* Silver Tour competitions over 1.25/1.35 m and achieved 13th place. GLOCK’s Zaranza and GLOCK’s Cognac Champblanc also gave outstanding performances and delivered another three clear rounds. Following these successful weeks in Spain it was time for the horses to return via Lyon to Holland.
