Good news from Jos Lansink's stable: Million Dollar by Plot Blue has returned safe and sound from his first competition of the year in Vejer de la Frontera, Spain.

Under Frank Schuttert, the Verband stallion did some tours at 1.30m level at the end of February to prepare for the upcoming season. The plan was to have a longer stay with starts up to 1.40m, but this was not possible due to the early end of the show by FEI decision. "We are very happy with Million Dollar's condition and glad that he has reached his stable in Belgium safe and sound," summarised General Manager Norbert Boley. He added that it was not possible to say for sure at the moment how things would continue for the stallion in sport. "That depends primarily on how the situation around the herpes outbreak in Valencia develops and when competitions will take place again," said Boley.
