The 10-year-old stallion, bred by Danny and Jens Nijs, has formed a duo with Spits for about a year and a half. Previously, Jens Nijs and Niels Fockaert were in the saddle of the stallion.

With Spits, Calvino II de Nyze jumped to third place in the CSI4* Grand Prix of Moerzeke. The pair also placed in the 1.55m class of the Longines Global Champions Tour in Mexico and in the 1.55m class in Shanghai!
