The Belgian warmblood stallion Saros van het Gestelhof is receiving higher scores every competition this season. At the CDN Schilde last weekend, Saros van het Gestelhof received the almost magical 69.25% leaving second placed Marina van Camp behind him with a 6.37% (!!) difference. More weird judging was to be seen in the Grand Prix. Judges Leyman and Meersman did not go "N'Sync" at De Brabohoeve. Vicky Smits won the test receiving 323 points from Meersman, while Leyman only granted her 313. Nor did the judging panel get a consensus in the second placed Regina Moldan. Meersman gave her 311 while Leyman saw much more in this Austrian rider and gave her 323. The judges' dualistic view climaxed in Carmen van Ingelgem's scores. Meersman offered her 306 points but Leyman placed her first with 325 points. Despite the huge differences in points did the top four scores ranged between 63.70 and 62.40%
