Imperial HBF (Glasgow v/h Merelsnest x Original VDL) continues to shine under Tim Gredley, achieving an impressive 5th place in the World Cup in Stuttgart this weekend.

Bred by Laura Tinto, Imperial HBF descends from Carina VDL, a mare Laura purchased from us as a young horse. Carina VDL has already produced three international showjumpers:

  • G-Carla HBF: competing at the 1.50m level
  • HBF-Delta: competing at the 1.45m level
  • Imperial HBF: excelling at the highest level in showjumping

Congratulations to Laura Tinto on these outstanding achievements!

There was also success for offspring of Carrera VDL in Stuttgart.
Jup (Carrera x Silverstone, breeder G.L. Dirksen-Hoksbergen) and Mariano Martinez Bastida claimed 2nd place in a 1.45m class. Another 2nd place went to the Carrera son Captain Morgan Weering Z (breeder R. Lanting from Roderwolde) in a different 1.45m class with his rider Giulia Martinengo Marquet.

Catch Me Not S (Cardento x Ramiro's Son, breeder Krister Svedberg) finished 3rd twice in Stuttgart. It’s fantastic to see this 18-year-old Cardento son still performing so strongly at a high level under Peder Fredricson.
