2003 CDI-W 's Hertogenbosch

Grand Prix Exceptionally Judged by Four; Withages called back by Hospitalized Husband

March 23, 2003

Mariette and RaymondThe Grand Prix leg of the ninth World Cup Qualifying competition in 's Hertogenbosch, The Netherlands, was exceptionally judged by four judges. At the beginning of the Grand Prix, the panel of judges consisted in Mr. Enzo Truppa (ITA) at E, Mr. Ghislain Fouarge (NED) at H, Mariette Withages (BEL) at C, Mrs. Francis Verbeek-van Rooy (NED) at M and Mr. Gustav Svalling (SWE) at B.

By the time that the Dutch Imke Schellekens was to ride, Mrs Withages received a phone call that her husband had a car accident and had been hospitalized. Mrs Withages left the scene immediately, resulting in a recalculation of the scores, based on four judges (all C-scores were dropped). Marlies van Baalen won the class riding Idocus.

Raymond Withages had a car accident on his way to Mol, Belgium, for a training job. He is not severely injured, but will remain hospitalized for a few days. Fortunately, Mr Withages is recouperating fast and will be going home soon.
