Caroline Roffman & Sagacious Place 2nd in Aachen Under-25 Freestyle
AACHEN, Germany, June 29–Caroline Roffman and Sagacious HF performed their first Grand Prix musical freestyle that wowed the crowd as well-ridden and ambitious with a high degree of difficulty to take second place in the Under-25 Division at the World Equestrian Festival Saturday.
Caroline and the 14-year-old KWPN gelding received 76.275% from the five-judge panel. Caroline took over the ride on Sagacious less than a year ago. For this event, she opted for a more technically difficult choreography two tempi-changes on curved lines, one-tempis on the centerline and a piaffe fan.
The class was won by Nanna Skodborg Merrald of Denmark on Millibar with a score of 78.475% while Diederik van Silfhout and Ariando of the Netherlands placed third with 73.950%.
