One weekend follows another, and after Conthendrix’s decisive performance in the Nations Cup in Faltersbo, Codex One (CONTENDRO I x Gluckspiltz) wins the Rolex Grand Prix in Aachen after 3 clear rounds : CONTENDRO I’s offspring confirm his status of great stallion and his #10 position in the world ranking.

The 2013 team Vice Champions in Herning, who incidentally came 6^th in the Europe Grand Prix at the beginning of the week: Codex One and C. Ahlmann finished first in the CHIO and won the 330 000€ prize money awarded to the winner!

3 out of 5 :

A great weekend in Aachen: after 2 clear rounds on a challenging course, 5 horses were back in the arena for the jump-off. 3 of them are from GFE stallions:

• Plot Blue by MR BLUE, with Marcus Ehning,
• Ohlala, the new crack of Lauren Hough by ORLANDO, already ranked 2^nd Friday in the Nations Cup,
• Codex One by CONTENDRO I and Christian Ahlmann who made his childhood dream come true by winning this Grand Prix!

GFE stallions on every field :

In Megève and Dinard, where a CSI3* and a CSI4* were held, the offspring of GFE stallions also proved very competitive:

Zoe II by KANNAN and L. De Luca came 2^nd in the Megève GP, whilst Callahan by CONTENDRO I and A. Al Sharbatli were ranked 3^rd with the best time. In Dinard, Plume de la Roque and Padock du Plessis, both by KANNAN and ridden by F. Busquet and T. Anciaume respectively, finished 4^th and 5^th in the GP.

Moreover, Carlito C and L. Philippaerts, Kavalier and S. Guerdat, Ominerale Courcelle and S. Breen, Diva II and B. Maher, Sultan du Château and L. Guillet, Prince d’Uranie and S. Robert, Quanan Rouge and J. Anquetin, Oliday d’Ira and A. Gautier, all by KANNAN, were ranked or won in the major classes of the weekend in Aachen, Megève and Dinard!

Echo D by ORLANDO and Peter Devos came 3^rd in the 150 high Stawag Class in Aachen. Following the good results of Ohlala, 2^nd in the Nations Cup and 5^th in the Grand Prix, ORLANDO, already 57^th in the world stallion ranking, is on his way to becoming a new star.
