1. What makes Alicante so special to you?<\/strong>
\n\u201cAlicante is a very complete horse. He is very nice to ride and is a very good stallion for breeding. Alicante is careful, agile and also very handsome. He has everything! \u2020<\/p>\n

2. How does Alicante get along? How is he to drive?<\/strong>
\n\u201cHe has a very nice character and is easy to drive. He is very flexible in his body and jumps very carefully. My dressage instructor also loves it. In the stable, the Casall son sometimes shows that he is a stallion, but as soon as I ride him, he listens and I can pass mares without any problems, etc.\u201d<\/p>\n

3. How is Alicante stabled?<\/strong>
\n\u201cAli, that's what we call him in the stable, has a real personality and likes to get a lot of attention. That's why we sometimes call him Prince Ali. He has a special box in the corner where he can look both in and out. If you walk past him and you don't look at him, he knocks on the door.\u201d<\/p>\n

4. What is the best experience you have experienced with Alicante so far?<\/strong>
\n\u201cOur victory in the Sires of the World in Lanaken was very special. Our win in Chantilly's Global Champions Tour was also fantastic. We were close to victory in Monaco too!\u201d<\/p>\n

5. What is your planning with Alicante?
\n<\/strong>\u201cFor the next month and a half, the focus will be on covering. Then we will prepare for some Global Champions Tour matches. I hope I can get a place in the top three there. Alicante is one of my top horses, maybe we can win a place in the Belgian team at the European Championships this summer.\u201d<\/p>\n

6. Do you advise people to buy a foal at the auction? Or do you advise a three- or four-year-old?<\/strong>
\n\u201cAt an auction you know that the foals have quality and are well-bred. It just takes a long time for a foal to be ready for competitions, so as a rider I prefer to buy a three or four year old. However, my wife likes to buy foals at auction. In other words, we do indeed buy foals at auctions!<\/p>\n
