03.01.2007 Third Place for the AraboFriesian in Mechelen
FEI World Cup in Mechelen: Schrijvers was given a second start by the judges after
they made a judging error. The multiple Belgian Champion took advantage of this
second chance and drove a nice clear round with his team of AraboFriesian-Sporthorses.
I am happy with my third place, it is just a pity that I don´t get any points for this result!
Schrijvers has one more start in Amsterdam and is looking forward to compete there: "I
see that my team is making progress. I hope for a place in the top three so I can qualify
for the Final. Luckily, Freund does not start in Amsterdam, so my chances are a bit
bigger".

Text from "FEI World Cup/Driving
Belgium´s Gert Schrijvers was very pleased with this third place: "My horses were impressed
by the crowd yesterday and they hesitated a little bit, but today they went really well. I was
able to galopp through the course and unfortunately I just hit one ball because of the speed
and this cost me the second place. But I am making progress: Fourth in Stuttgart, third
in Stockholm, so I go for the second place in Mechelen and the first place in Amsterdam!"
Jokes the sympathic driver.
