Diederik van Silfhout won the Vian Prix, Grand Prix Freestyle on Saturday afternoon with a great score of 80.325%. Arlando N.O.P. was in good form and showed a real good test. Highlights were his passage, piaffe and pirouettes. The Freestyle had harmony, energie and power and the artistic score included several nines. A well deserved victory!
Runners-up were, like in yesterday’s Grand Prix, Hans Peter Minderhoud and Glock’s Flirt with 78.500%. It is still the beginning of the indoor season and it looked as if Glock’s Flirt still has to get into the routine. The beginning of the Freestyle seemed a bit restless, but he became better and better during the performance.
Third place also went to a Dutch rider, to the 33-year-old Marieke van der Putten. She scored 76.875% with the 11-year-old KWPN mare Ambria.
