Catherine Van Roosbroeck sells Grand Prix horse to Jose Larocca
Last week Catherine Van Roosbroeck was one of the important riders missing at the Belgium senior show jumping championships in Lanaken. Just before the start of the Nations Cup finals, were she is appointed reserve rider for the Belgium squad, Van Roosbroeck has sold her Grand Prix horse Gautcho da Quinta (by Cicero Z Van Paemel).

The 11-year-old grey has switched owner. It will be Argentina's José Larocca who'll be competing the horse in the future. Larocca defended the national colors at three Olympic Games in the past. The Games in Rio, London and Beijing.

Van Roosbroeck and her grey teamed up as a pair for the past seven years. This year the combination made their five star debute in Aachen as well as won the Nations Cup in Reiser, Luxembourg.

 

The pair won many CSI2* Grand Prix's in the past year and was one of the most regular combinations for Belgium.
