About one year ago hower an injury did put a halt on Regina's career. Now Regina's rider has decided to retire her from the sport. In April Smolders did compete Regina again at a national competition in Belgium. The pair continued with a couple of international 3* events, among others at the Azelhof in Lier.
"She's still in a winning mood, nevertheless she feels different. That is why I've decided to retire her from the sport," states Smolders.
Regina Z will continue her career for breeding. At the moment Regina has already some offsprings in the sport such as Magic Blue Z (Mr. Blue) and Victoria Z (by Vigo d'Arsouilles).
