We are very pleased that we have been able to contribute to this wonderful event again this year.

During the preparations for CDI Lier, Jorinde worked hard on the stable plan, and with the start of the event, we at Dressage stable Verwimp were able to sponsor the U25 Intermediate II competition!

Last week, our riders Jorinde Verwimp, Elise Verwimp, Eline Borrey de Coninick and Veronique Philippaerts-Engelen participated in various competitions at CDI. Here were the highlights:

It was a busy week, but we thoroughly enjoyed this event and all the activities surrounding it.

Last weekend, Jorinde was in Le Mans together with Charmer and Vicomte De Reyves. Here Vicomte De Reyves made his fantastic international debut and both horses achieved these great results:

• Vicomte De Reyves achieved 1st place in the Intermediaire I with a score of 70.0%
• Vicomte De Reyves earned a 3rd place with his debut freestyle with a score of 71.1%
• En Vicomte De Reyves achieved a 5th place in the Prix St Georges with a score of 66.6%
• Charmer achieved a 7th place with the Freestyle with a score of 70.7

We are very happy with these results achieved by Jorinde with both horses, and we could not have wished for a better international debut of Vicomte De Reyves in France!

Last week the London International Horse show took place and Jorinde attended. In the Grand Prix she and Charmer had an expensive mistake in the 2nd piaffe, which pushed the score to 67%. But the freestyle went much better and here they scored 74,4% !

P.S. Did you know that Jorinde Charmer rides an Albion Saddle?

Ruut Pasgang is enjoying her maternity leave and so Jorinde Verwimp got to ride her dressage talent Limited Edition in Zandhoven yesterday. For the 7-year-old this was his first PSG test and together they achieved 3rd place with 67.6%!

With Charmer, Jorinde competed in the Grand Prix. Unfortunately, they had an expensive mistake in the canter pirouette which dropped their score to 69,1%. However, this was still enough for a great 2nd place!
