Oh I love that mare! Andreas Helgstrand is a very talented rider and Blue Hors Matine is wonderful. Her piaffe is so expressive, and her movements are flawless. Personally I think Andreas' ride was much better than Anky van Grusven's ride in the WEG. Even though Anky scored much higher, Salinero looked stiff and tight, obviously due to the use of rollkur.
I was really disappointed that Matine didn't pass the vet exam and consequently couldn't compete in the World Cup in Las Vegas, which I attended.
