SANKT GALLEN – Frank Schuttert and Arc de Triomphe (Triomphe de Muze x Calvados) recorded their first five star victory at CSIO Sankt Gallen yesterday. In yesterday's 1.45 m class, which was held over two phases, Schuttert triumphed and the 2005 op Foal Auction Prinsjesdag auctioned Arc de Triomphe.
Arc de Triomphe has been one of the showpieces of Foal Auction Prinsjesdag for years. He twice won the VION Cup – the Dutch championship for young show jumpers – and many international victories and top prizes followed. With the victory in the 1.45 m in Sankt Gallen, the Arc de Triomphe, fully trained by Frank Schuttert himself, has also proven to be competitive at a five-star level (!). Arc de Triomphe is a son of Triomphe de Muze and the international top mare Una Bella S (Calvados x Libero H). The Van Straaten family from Den Ham bred the successful gelding, which came into the hands of Frank Schuttert in 2005.
For top talent Bonne Chance CW (Baloubet du Rouet x Cambridge) and Janika Sprunger it was a clear first phase and a slight error in the second phase.
Their first victory at CSIO5*-level is a fact: Frank Schuttert and Arc de Triomphe (Triomphe de Muze x Calvados) won the 1.45m yesterday at CSIO Sankt Gallen. Arc de Triomphe was sold at Foal Auction Prince's Day 2005 and has been a super star ever since.
As a youngster Arc de Triomphe already won the VION Cup twice – Dutch championships for young horses. After that lots of international victories and placings keep following. With the victory in the 1.45 m at Sankt Gallen Frank Schuttert and Arc de Triomphe proved to be competitive at even the highest level: CSIO5*. Family Van Straaten bred Arc de Triomphe out of the international show jumping mare Una Bella S (Calvados x Libero H).
For the extremely talented Bonne Chance CW (Baloubet du Rouet x Cambridge) and Janika Sprunger there was a clear first phase and a light rail in the second phase.

ERMELO – Two colts auctioned at Foal Auction Prinsjesdag 2012 have already grown into KWPN-approved stallions. The Numero Uno son Highlander (ds. Vingino) and the Vigo d'Arsouilles son Hervé d'Ive VDL (ds. Indoctro) both obtained their breeding license from the KWPN. With 81.5 points, Highlander is one of the highlights of his year and Hervé d'Ive VDL was also rewarded with several 8s.
Monique Lamers-Couwenberg from Heide bred Highlander out of the Vingino daughter Ditty Dante C. The Prinsjesdag selection committee was already charmed by the blood-bred Highlander, who, in addition to top stallions in his pedigree, also comes from a top dam line. Great-granddam Citty (by Ramiro) is the foundation of countless international show jumpers. Loyal Prinsjesdag buyers Jos Althuyzen and Egbert Schep were also charmed by the flexible gray and bought it.
With an 8.5 for canter and an 8.5 for scope, Highlander stood out above his contemporaries. In addition, he scored at least an 8 for all jumping components and his total came to 81.5.
Hervé d'Ive VDL (Vigo d'Arsouilles x Indoctro) was born with Isabelle Van Eeckhout in Outer-Ninove, Belgium. In addition to the Prinsjesdag selection committee, the Van de Lageweg family of VDL Stud was also impressed by the strongly built chestnut. VDL Stud therefore bought the Vigo d'Arsouilles son at Foal Auction Prinsjesdag.
Hervé d'Ive's grandmother Almfee (Almé x Gotthard) jumped at 1.45 m level herself and is the foundation of a large number of international show jumpers. A similar career lies ahead for Hervé d'Ive as well. The fox scored an 8 for his beautiful technique and an 8 for his generous scope. It is not without reason that his talent as a jumping horse was rewarded with an 8 and his total score came to 76 points.
The prestigious KWPN studbook has approved the Prinsjesdag sold stallion Hervé d'Ive VDL (Vigo d'Arsouilles x Indoctro) and Highlander (Numero Uno x Vingino). With a top-score of 81.5 points and an 8.5 for scope and canter Highlander was one of the favourites. This son of Numero Uno was bred by Monique Lamers-Couwenberg and bought at Prinsjesdag 2012 by Egbert Schep and Jos Althuyzen. At the same auction in 2012 VDL Stud bought the Vigo d'Arsouilles-son Hervé d'Ive VDL from the famous Belgian breeder Isabelle Van Eeckhout. Hervé d'Ive VDL was rewarded with an 8 for jumping technique, scope and talent as a show jumper.

Former Prinsjesdag auction foal Hortense STRH (by Dream Boy) and co-owner Yvonne Copal achieved the highest daily score during the IBOP in Brummen today. The daughter of the elite mare Toulouse elite (by Jazz), who is known as the Olympic medalist Parzival and dam of the Small Tour dressage horse Bretagne STR (by OO Seven), received 82.5 points.
The mare of H. Kretz and Yvonne Copal received a 9 for the canter. Jury member Dirk Reijne: “We scored an 8.5 for the construction, and an 8. This is a mare that shows a lot of flexibility in movement and also has very good use of the hind leg in all three basic gaits. She also has good posture and a remarkable amount of balance in the canter for such a young, large horse. A fine horse!”
