Stal Nieuwenhof's horses performed handsomely last week and weekend at the Belgian Championships for young horses in Gesves. In the final of the six-year-old horses, Marthe Heudens jumped to first (!) place with Super Star van ‘t Keikelhof (Big Star x For Pleasure). Owner and breeder of the winner in the six-year-olds is Hans Hemelaar.

Tant Mieux ‘S’ (Udarco van Overis x Diamant de Semilly) came a second in the final of the five-year-olds. With Jordy Oostvogels in the saddle, this breeding product of Jef Hens and Marc Van Dijck showed very nice and clear rounds.

Also in the final for five-year-old horses were The Lewis vh Heidehof (Udarco van Overis x Chin Chin ), - winner of the Cycle for five-year-old horses - and Scotch vh Dennehof, (Ducati van Schuttershof x Prince van de Wolfsakker), a son of Luna vh Dennehof, and Silver van t'Keikelhof (Cornet Obolensky x For Pleasure ), the half-sister of Super Star, in the final for six-year-old horses.
