The Richebourg mare Nikyta d'Elle won't be riding competitions anymore. She will be used for breeding instead. The mare was trained by Hubert Pignolet. Once she was ready for the Grand Prix level, Roger-Yves Bost started riding her. With Bost in the saddle, Nikyta had a great career. The most memorable moment of this mare is without any doubt her second place in La Baule in 2014. The combination won classes in Hong Kong, Doha, Abu Dhabi, Paris, Vejer and Oliva as well. Now the mare will continue her wonderful career in breeding. Hubert Pignolet is very happy to see her in breeding: "I've had an amazing time with Nikyta d'Elle. She's a very competitive mare and she always wants to do well. I'm sure that her offspring will inherit those qualities".
