Schulkens, Haazen, Hanzon and Callaghan 2003 KNHS
Indoor Champions
The
finals of the KNHS Dutch Indoor Dressage Championships
in equestrian facility De Gouberg in Roosendaal, The
Netherlands, produced Roger Schulkens, Jeanette Haazen,
Theo Hanzon and Patricia Callaghan as indoor champions
2003.
The Fourth level Test 1 (ZZ-licht) Championship title
went to the Belgian located but Dutch native Roger Schulkens
aboard his chestnut Monarch. Scoring top sixty percentage
scores, Schulkens dealt with little competition in his
class. The Fourth Level Test 4 (ZZ-zwaar) Ttle went
to another Belgian located, yet Dutch native, Jeanette
Haazen. With her Prix St Georges trained and shown Rockefeller
van de Zelm, Haazen could have taken the trophy even
if she had an off-day. Her Rockefeller van de Zelm is
up for more "rivalry" so performing in this
championships' class was a piece of cake for the Belgian
warmblood stallion by Rosenkavalier.
At Prix St Georges leve, the 2003 Indoor Champion's
title went to former young rider Theo Hanzon aboard
Idar (by Darwin). Twenty-two-year old Hanzon beat his
long time rival, the 22-year old Joyce Heutinck who
had saddled her number one mare Berkel I Dancer. There
was a minimal score difference between the two former
young riders, but Hanzon and Idar just showed that extra
bit and became the champions.
At Grand Prix level, the Dutch dressage elite did not
show up for the Indoor Championships, so the title went
to B-team rider Patricia Callaghan aboard Joy who put
down three strong rides (pictured). Tineke Bartels brought
her good-old Luxaflex with her once again and finished
second, while stable Hexagon's leading rider Leunis
van Lieren placed third with Hexagon's Louisville.
