Vermeir’s fourth gold as he tops young horse competition

Warsaw Jumping Sunday has just opened with Wilm Vermeir and the 7-year-old Belle Amie vd Dassenheide Z seizing victory at the young horse competition for the prize of PZU. It has been his fourth triumph at Warsaw Jumping 2023.

The course was very-well designed, ideal one for young horses. Belle Amie has been superb today, I knew I could go very fast in the jump-off. It has never happened to me to win four competitions during one event, so Warsaw may be taken for a record. – said the 50th jumper up the global ranks.

Switzerland’s Anthony Bourguard and his 8-year-old stallion Festival Semilly clocked second.

Third place was taken by Kevin Jochems of the Netherlands on an 8-year-old Looks Good de Liebri Z. The same duo was victorious at yesterday’s CSIYH for the prize of KOWR.
