The Versatility of the Spanish Horse Show at SICAB 2002

Friday 29, November - The wide range of different disciplines on show during these competitions demonstrated the versatility of the Spanish purebred horses, their natural ease of disposition and aptitude for participating in high-level competitions in Driving, Dressage, Doma Vaquera, and show jumping.

During the year a series of nationwide classificatory competitions, held in Seville, Madrid, Oviedo, Valencia, Marbella, Motenmedio amongst others, acted as qualifiers leading up to and culminating in the ANCCE Cup final held during SICAB

In Driving, despite the conditions of the outdoor arena, mainly due to a combination of the rain and the inherent difficulty of the run, the general attainment of the participants was good, securing a total of five trunks and six quarters. After 3 days of trials in Dressage, Marathon and Manageability, the champion of Spain and the Olympic rider, D. Juan Robles Marchena won first title in the quarters, while Jose Maria Fernandez classified in trunks with Favorito and Mulato of the Yeguada Marques de Velilla with a score of 125.83
