Remarkable results in Vidauban and Ebreichsdorf

Whether in France or at home in Austria, the GLOCK dressage riders were a force to be reckoned with this spring weekend. While GLOCK rider Katrin Khoddam-Hazrati was competing in the national CDN-A/CDN-B at Magna Racino equestrian sports park, GLOCK young rider Timna Zach was beaming in the spring sunshine during the first week of the international CDI in Vidauban (FRA) under the supervision of GLOCK rider Marcel Schoenmakers. 

In Ebreichsdorf eventing specialist Katrin Khoddam-Hazrati successfully presented GLOCK’s Landregen in the dressage arena: third place with 6.7 points in the LM dressage on Saturday (2 March) and fifth spot with 63.540% in the LP on Sunday (3 March) made the trip well worthwhile.

For Timna Zach the weekend started on Thursday (28 February) following a long journey to the French town of Vidauban. She entered GLOCK’s Federleicht in the Young Rider Tour of this international dressage competition and the GLOCK pair impressed with 67.939% and third place right in the first test (team championship). On Friday they again had every reason to be happy with 68.772% and runner-up slot. The two completed their first Freestyle to music on a high by finishing third with 72.042%.

The judges saw a great deal of potential in GLOCK’s Grandioso. Under Marcel Schoenmakers he is becoming increasingly proficient and scored 66.043% (9th) in the Grand Prix and 68.313% (7th) in the Grand Prix Special.
