Zwolle International Stallion Show
Jeanette Haazen and Rockefeller van de Zelm Do It
Again
February 28, 2003
After
the sale of her number one competition horse Inatana
(by Latano) to Yvonne Losos de Muniz of the Dominican
Republic, Jeanette Haazen has made the Belgian warmblood
stallion Rockefeller van de Zelm the new star of her
stable. Winning the consolation final of the Promising
Stallion Class at the 2003 Zwolle International Stallion
Show, Jeanette Haazen has proved to have a new champion
in the makings.
In the Prix St Georges, Haazen scored 'only' 62,75%
aboard her Belgian warmblood registered, but Anglo European
Studbook licensed Rockefeller. Several small mistakes
had snooped into her test and the horse got tight in
the neck on several occasions. The combination, however,
had a rematch in the Consolation Finals and with 66,67%
in their Intermediaire I kur, they dominated the class.
With
her Zwolle victory, Haazen has shown that she'll be
ready to score in the 2003 show season and aims to enlarge
her growing list of achievements aboard this bay stallion.
Haazen's most important victory to date aboard Rockefeller
was set at the 2002 Dutch Dressage Championships where
they became Dutch Fourth Level champions.
Rockefeller van de Zelm is bred by Koen and Mathy Geerts
from Mol, Belgium, and was trained and shown as a youngster
by Belgian Stefan van Ingelgem. Van Ingelgem and Rockefeller
competed at the 1999 World Young Horse Championships
after which Rockefeller was sold to Jeannette Haazen.
