In 2019 Dinja van Liere began training and competing the stallion. She rode him on the 2019-2020 KWPN Stallion Competition circuit and finished second in the finals. 

In January 2020 Van Liere and Joop! TC finished third in the Subli Cup finals at Jumping Amsterdam, a Dutch young horse ciruit.  That year they were also long-listed for Dutch team selection for the 2020 World Young Horse Championships, but they did not make the team.

Joop TC has now been re-united with Jeanine Nieuwenhuis, who recently announced that she parted ways with Tim Coomans to set up her own business. The two would continue collaborating and this has translated into Joop being allocated to her. 

In September Jeanine and Joop! TC had their national show debut at ZZ level. They are now working towards Prix St Georges. 

On 1 January 2022, Nieuwenhuis will move into her own new stable in Kamperland, where she will be doing all the work from mucking to training the horses. The facility has 10 boxes.
