Nanna and Bonsai in a superb victory in the 5-year-old class at the Danish Equestrian Federation's intermediate round
Several of our riders had made their way to the PAVO and Danish Equestrian Federation’s intermediate round for dressage championships at Grindsted Rideklub. However, one pair, in particular, stood out from the rest of the 32 horses in the field: Nanna and Blue Hors Bonsai!
Bonsai (Blue Hors Baron)
It’s happening soon! The finals of the Danish Equestrian Federation and PAVO’s championships for 4, 5, 6, and 7-year-old dressage horses are just around the corner! And this weekend, we got a taste of what’s to come with an outstanding performance from one very special pair.
Of course, it was Blue Hors rider Nanna Skodborg Merrald and the 5-year-old chestnut mare Blue Hors Bonsai (by Blue Hors Baron – Royal Classic, breeder: Bernhard Sieverding) who stole the show, earning 9.7 for trot, 9.8 for walk, 10 for canter, rideability, and capacity, and an overall score of 99.000. They were the clear winners of their class!
With such a remarkable result, we are even more excited about the championship finals in week 41!
