2010-2011 Imperial Riding Cup

New talent has risen to the top at the second 2011 Imperial Riding Cup Qualifier of the season, hosted in Emmeloord, The Netherlands, on Saturday 15 January 2011. Several new faces appeared in the top 10 and new comer Febe van Zwambagt won the class.  The 12-year old Van Zwambagt saddled the rising 7-year old black Prince Z (by Make My Day) to ride him to a 68.80% score which sufficed for the victory.

The young Van Zwanbagt and her Prince Z are not new to the national scene, having won the Dutch Championships from L to Z1 level four times, but this is their first year at FEI pony level, which opens doors to compete internationally. Febe is trained by Liesbeth Verhoeven.

Sanne Gilbers and her Bundeschampion Daylight (by Don Worry) ranked second with a minimal point difference to the winner: 68.43%. Michelle de Jonge and the bay Hagelkruis Valentijn were third on 68.33%

Lotte Meulendijks and the bay Swedish bred Boticelli slotted in fourth after receiving 67.69% from judges Kloosterboer, Blanken-van de Scheer and Alberts. New face Kirsten Dirks completed the top five, scoring 67.50% aboard Kleefs Silver Shadow.
