2000 European Pony Championships

Isabelle Boost Breaking Through

Surprisingly sixth was Isabelle Boost from Schoten, Belgium. The 16 year old, who is doing her first and last European Pony Championship, presented the liver chestnut Weser Ems pony gelding Chantre W. Her mount is a full brother to the 1999 Euro Champion Conrad who are both bred by Hilde Wassmann from Badbergen, Germany. Boost's scores in the Belgian national show circuit were not constant. Nevertheless, she was able to point high if both rider and pony were in shape. At the end of the season the duo was one of the best Belgian pony combinations and a selection for the Belgian team, which ended up fifth in Hagen, was only natural. With a sixth place in the individual final at the 2000 Championships in Hagen, Boost seems to be ready to capture the Belgian national title as well.
