Cardento VDL proved himself in the Swedish championships for young horses as a progenitor
of top show jumpers. The extreme high numbers of Cardento offspring placed in
the championships was remarkable.
Champion of
the 7 year olds was Twiggen (Cardento x Gibson), ridden by Jens Wickstrom. In 4th
place came Thriller P (Cardento x Lucky Light), ridden by Lisen Bratt
Fredricson, and 6th place was for another Cardento offspring: Carpe Diem af Pan, ridden by Victoria Almgren.
Also the free
jumping championship for 3 year olds had a Cardento offspring as champion: Care
for Love, who received a convincing 9,1. Reserve champion was Lovely Boy (Sheraton
x Landlord), who was rewarded with 8,8.
In the 5
year old class reserve title was for Cornelia (s.Corland), ridden by Victoria
Almgren. 5th place was for Carduzo (Cardento x Landlord), ridden by
Jenny Berglund. A very nice 6th was for the approved stallion and remarkable
jumper Corporal VDL, (Cardento x Grosso Z), ridden by Magnus Osterland. Other
offspring of Cardento took 7th, 10th, 13th and
15th place.
Reserve
champion of the 4 year old show jumpers was Al Cendo (Al Cantino x Cardento),
ridden by Olof Smith. Candlelight K (Cardento
x Everest) took 5th place, ridden by Stina Lilje and 6th
place was for VDL Stud-stallion Camillo VDL (Douglas x Baloubet du Rouet),
ridden by Magnus Osterlund. Cardine F (Cardento x Dammen) took 11th
place, ridden by Jenny Ostberg.
