Three new N.O.P. horses

Mar 15, 2016

VDL Groep Zidane, Emerald and Glock's Cognac Champblanc have all had 'N.O.P.' added to their names as they as they are now part of the programme of the Dutch Olympic Horse Foundation.
With Leopold van Asten in the saddle, VDL Groep Zidane became Dutch Champion last year while Emerald had a great 2015 season under Harrie Smolders to win the World Cup in Washington as one of their highlights. Glock’s Cognac Champblanc was together with Gerco Schröder part of the gold medal winning Dutch team at last year’s Europeans in Aachen.
The goal of the N.O.P. is to keep top horses with medal potential in the Netherlands – with the financial support from the Dutch Equestrian Federation’s main sponsor Rabobank.
