Quote from Topdressage.tv forum...
"Belgian combination Vicky Smits-Vanderhasselt and her Hanoverian mare Daianira van de Helle (by Dream of Glory) blew everyone out of their socks at the CDI Bremen beating international top riders, trainers and Olympians with the greatest ease in the Grand Prix Special (71,500)." What do you notice about this pair?



Here's what I notice...
  • Nose in front of the vertical and long stretching forward neck
  • Relaxation (no tension)
  • Lightness
  • Rider's hands are very high :-), but that's neither here nor there
This mare's sire is Dream of Glory, by Donnerhall out of a Pik Bube  mare. Dream of Glory is deceased. Her mare's sire, Ritual B, is a stallion by Romino.
