Osmium wins PAVO Cup for four-Year-olds

Today our stallion Osmium won the four-year-olds class of the PAVO Cup. The rankings from the semi-final were turned upside down in this competition. Nicolette van Lierop rode a strong test, scoring 80 points which put her in fourth place.

In the final the five best horses per age category were then ridden and assessed by the German and Belgian riders Holga Finken (see picture) and Jean Bemelmans. Osmium was even awarded a 10 by Holga! This colossal score helped Osmium to victory, with a 35.5 point difference between him and the number 2.
