Two 'Flanders' horses in today's 5yo final in Samorin

This morning in Šamorín brought us exciting news! Among the 15 horses in the international final for 5-year-olds, two were sold by Flanders Foal Auction!

• 4th prize was awarded to the copey and careful Big M van Overis Z (Big Star x Canabis), ridden by Jennifer Jaritz-Gnaser (AUT). Her father acquired this chestnut in 2019 online during the Flanders Embryo Auction in Sharjah (UAE). Big M’s dam, Charmline JT Z, is a sibling to two 1.60m and two 1.50m Grand Prix horses and comes from the renowned Hardrock Z family. We’re thrilled to announce that we have a Cassini I offspring from Charmline JT Z in tonight’s auction in Šamorín.
   
• 10th place went to Howla Paula TK Z (Heartbreaker x Corrado I) with Nina Pangeršic (SLO). This stunning grey stands out with her light-footedness, technique and quality. Bred via ISCI and sold as a foal, Howla Paula TK Z is a daughter of Costa Rica (1.50m level), the half-sister to Chesall Zimequest (1.60m Grand Prix with Simon Delestre).
