Nero Classic, Classic Hit for Success

A new highlight has been added to the elite Eurodressage FEI Dressage Pony Collection. With ponies on our "sold" list like stallion Top Yellow, Noble Casper, Condor, Alympia and many more, Eurodressage has proven to be the best source for top quality FEI Dressage ponies. Newest addition to the collection is Belgium's current number one FEI dressage pony Nero Classic. This 10-year dark bay Rhinelander gelding is a pony to die for. His beauty and expression in the show ring is incredible and makes him an absolute ticket for success. Nero Classic has a perfect conformation, with an elegant noble head and strong hindquarters. His walk is large and balanced, his trot is strong and excels in the extensions and his canter is ground covering and well jumped.

Owned by Joke de Belder since 1999, Nero Classic has been competing at FEI level for two years. Trained by FN Instructor Gudrun Schlack, Nero Classic and Joke de Belder have dominated the Belgian Pony Scene the last two years and became the number one of the country in 2002. In 2002, Nero Classic scored an average of 65% (placing first), sometimes hitting 67%. The combination was member of the Belgian Pony Dressage Team twice and competed at several CDI's and twice at the European Pony Championships.

At the 2001 European Pony Championships in Vejer de la Frontera, Spain, De Belder was first confronted with the European top and as an inexperienced combination with her young Nero Classic, performed well by scoring a solid 63%.

During the 2002 show season, the pair's scores rose much and Joke reigned supreme. At the CDI-P Fountaineblue, France, the combination won the competition with 71.5% in the kur to music, which was performed on Abba beats. At the CDIO-P in Aarhus, Denmark, Joke and Nero Classic were the only Belgian pair to ride the individual finals. They placed sixth amongst the European top with a strong 65.16% score. Nero Classic continued to improve during the 2002 show season and reach his apex at the 2002 European Championships in Hagen, Germany. De Belder and Nero Classic were once again the only Belgian combination in the individual finals, in which they finished tenth and 11th overall at the Championships.

Being only 10-years old, Nero Classic still has plenty of time to improve in his training and become stronger in the show ring. With a little more maturing, Nero Classic is destined to place in the European and international top five. Nero Classic is a wonderful gelding who loves attention and care and with professional training and guidance he can not but fulfil his role as FEI pony star.
