DE Subli Competition in full swing: review of Wapenveld and Werkendam
July 16, 2024
Last weekend there were two competitions of the Subli Competition for Young Dressage Horses on the program. Saturday, July 13, a large field of participants started at Riding Association De Schaapskooiruiters in Wapenveld. One day later, on Sunday, July 14, a selection competition took place at Riding Association Klavertje Vier in Werkendam. At both competitions the participants achieved great results in the classes for four- and five-year-old dressage horses.
Subli Competition Wapenveld
In the class for four-year-old dressage horses in Wapenveld, 14 participants showed their tests to the judges present. Although the weather this day was not cooperating with a lot of rain, high points were scored. There was one combination that stood out. With a stunning score of 91.00%, Ruben Menqual Reig and the very talented GLOCK's Pablo Picasso left the competition far behind. The stallion with three superb gaits excelled particularly well in the trot, which the judges awarded a 9.5. But the combination, who is trained by Hans Peter Minderhoud, also scored an amazing 9 for the canter. Second place went to Rosa Vlaar who rode her chestnut mare Papaya Van De Nethe to a very nice score of 81,00%. Right behind, Bart Veeze with Pina Colada M finished in third place with a score of 80.60.
In the class for five-year-olds, 7 competitors started. The Westphalian-bred Kuups Fürst Fredo won convincingly with his rider Annebel Rootveld with a nice score of 79,20%. The Oldenburg gelding Best Secret finished second and received a total score of 76,20% under the saddle of Svenja Grimm.

Subli Competition Werkendam
On Sunday, July 14, the tests for four- and five-year-old dressage horses were judged in Werkendam by judges Patrick Berends and Janine van Twist. Especially in the class for four-year-olds the scores were very close together at the top of the standings. After his fine performance the day before in Wapenveld, Bart Veeze competed again in Werkendam, this time with Pride in the class for four-year-olds. The judges were very impressed by the chestnut stallion who showed three very strong gaits. The trot and canter were even rewarded with a 9. The neat test resulted in a total score of 83.40% and a narrow victory in the four-year-olds. The difference with the number two was very small. José van Haaren managed to impress the judges by presenting her horse Perfect Ritme very nicely. For her test with the talented black gelding, José received a score of 83.00% and second place. Again a nice result for this combination, after also a second place during the Subli selection competition last month in Aerdenhout. Third place was for the bay stallion Patheon LE who, under the saddle of his rider Alvaro Rodriquez Siscar, received a neat score of 79,20% from the judges.
In the class for five-year-old dressage horses, six competitors competed. The black stallion One Million and his rider Robin Heiden managed to impress the judges the most. The combination managed to convince especially thanks to three good gaits and a neat test that was rewarded with a score of 83.00%. Second place with a total of 78,60% was for Femke de Laat with her horse Oromance.
