GCT Doha

The final leg of the Global Champions Tour 2018 was competed in Doha. The offspring of Vigo d’Arsouilles stood out from the crowd over the very difficult obstacles of the GP. Irenice Horta (f. Vigo d’Arsouilles) and Lorenzo De Luca eventually became fourth after a double clear round. For Shane Breen and Golden Hawk (ex-Figo de Muze, f. Vigo d’Arsouilles), a ninth place was reserved after three faults in the jump-off.

Some more GP news

Several excellent performances were also noted in other GP’s/World Cups. In the World Cup of Thermal, Firestone S (f. Querlybet Hero) ended fifth with John Pearce. Iceman de Muze (f.

Epilogue

Stefanie Holmen and Flip’s Little Sparrow (f. Cardento) became Swedish Champion in the seniors category. Flip’s Litte Sparrow is the daughter of our breeding mare and former superstar Butterfly Flip and is therefore half-sister to the mother of Quick Flip de Muze. Quick Flip is the two-year-old daughter of Mosito van het Hellehof that won the Belgian Youngster Trials last week.
