Doron Kuipers has gratefully used the opportunity to start at the international top show CHIO Rotterdam. He used Up-a-Daisy (by Gentleman) for the big classes to get experience at that level with the additional stress. He managed to qualify for the 1.60m Grand Prix. Here Ups-A-Daisy dropped two poles. One time he came a little too flat to a vertical, the other pole fell in the triple combination.

With Laos (by Caos) Doron missed a bit of luck. They achieved the fastest time twice, but both times they had a fault on the last fence. Otherwise, they would have won two classes. In the 1.45m class on Saturday Doron won a 7th prize.

On Friday evening Doron was winner of the semi-finals of the regional South Holland Cup with Quebon (by Quebec). On Sunday Mischa Everse finished 5th in the final with Amarillo (by Indoctro).
