Nissan Gigolo
injured at CHIO Aachen
Nissan
Gigolo FRH injured his leg during the warm up. While
leaping in the air, the 15 year old gelding hit his
front leg right on an old injury and went lame immediately.
Isabell Werth announced that she wouldn't be able to
enter him in further Aachen tests, nor will the injury
be healed in time for the European Championships in
Arnhem in two weeks. Sceptics claim that the career
of Gigolo is completely over. The wonderful Hanoverian
made a life sum of 750.000 DM. German chef d'equipe
Klaus Balkenhol announced his German team which consists
of Isabell Werth with Anthony, Nadine Capellman with
Gracioso, Alexandra Simons de Ridder with Chacomo and
Ulla Salzgeber with Rusty.
