It’s exciting to welcome Carlos Hank and his well performing stallions to the Equ.breeding family. This week H5 Elvaro is competing at the Valkenswaard International Horse Show, resulting in a victory on the first day.
The first day ended with the 4* competition 1.50/1.55m, the thrilling highlight of the day. It was a competition against the clock so the riders had to have their plan ready and set the fastest route. It was the Brazilian Eduardo Menezes who managed to achieve the fastest round with the 12-year-old KWPN stallion H5 Elvaro. “A great start of the event for us, great! My horse felt good and the soil here is excellent. It’s great to ride on grass again. When I was growing up this arena was like a myth to me. I wanted to ride here. I totally understood when the grass was replaced by sand, but now it’s back to how it should be.”
