This year, the duo already placed in the top five of the 1.55m CSI4* Grand Prix in Opglabbeek and finished second in the 1.45m CSI2* Grand Prix of Lier. Last year, the Belgian impressed with the mare during the FEI World Championship for seven-year-old horses.

Paulien Dwerse Hagen (Cornet Obolensky x Casall) comes from the breeding of De Winter's grandfather, Jos Ceulemans, and arrived with the rider four years ago.

Who will take over the reins of the mare is not yet known...
