When Dirk arrives Anky is teaching the former Dutch young rider Imke Bartels on Gestion Janssen, a Russian bred gelding owned by the Bartels farm. Initially Imke Bartels is riding her chestnut while Anky helps her get around. But just to make sure that Anky is correct in what she is saying, she hops on Janssen to see how he react to her aids. Gestion Janssen was named after Anky's trainer Sjef Janssen.
