2011 Pavo Cup Finals

From a fifth place at the 2011 World Young Horse Championships straight into the lead in the 5-year old semi-finals of the 2011 Pavo Cup Finals held at the KWPN Paardendagen in Ermelo, The Netherlands. Bon Bravour and his Belgian rider Tom Franckx-Goen did not take a break but kept business going as usual.

Bon Bravour (by Painted Black x Chronos) scored 86 points and topped the leader board, outclassing 55 other 5-year old semi-finalists. Hans Peter Minderhoud and Nekeman's black KWPN stallion Boston (by Johnson x Quattro B) were second with one point less, 85 points.

Last year's Pavo Cup champion in the 4-year old division, Borencio (by Florencio x Lord Sinclair) slotted in third with 84 points. He is ridden by Emmelie Scholtens and owned by Annabelle Collins and Agusti Elias from Spain.

The top 25 is allowed to compete in the first round of the finals on Thursday 11 August 2011.
