GLOCK’s London N.O.P. makes his comeback

The first international tournament at the BWG stables of the Schröder brothers Gerco, Ben and Wim from May 19th – 22nd 2016 was a complete success as well as being packed with emotion. Because, as part of the CSI2* Tubbergen (NED), it wasn’t only the GLOCK Grand Prix of Tubbergen that was staged on Sunday. The occasion also marked the urgently anticipated comeback of GLOCK’s London N.O.P. following an extended break, whilst GLOCK’s Zaranza, GLOCK’s Champions Ludwig and GLOCK’s Debalia made successful starts.

Gerco presented 14-year-old "London" in the CSI1* Big Tour over 1.30 m. The GLOCK dream team completed the tests with great poise and ease, incurring no penalties over the obstacles. "We are so happy to have GLOCK’s London N.O.P. back again." said a beaming Gerco after the successful comeback.

Following a penalty-free round in the GMB Prix over 1.35 m on Saturday, eight-year-old GLOCK’s Debalia took third place whilst, in the Nijboer Championat of Tubbergen (1.40 m), GLOCK’s Champions Ludwig got eleventh place. Twelve-year-old GLOCK’s Zaranza, son of Karandasj, also showed top form in Tubbergen. Under Gerco’s saddle in the CSI2* Grand Prix Qualification (1.45 m) on Friday, the KWPN stallion jumped his way to fourth place and finished the GLOCK Grand Prix of Tubbergen (1.45 m) in eleventh place. The winner of the GLOCK Grand Prix was Remco Been on Holland vd Bisschop.
