The 13-year-old mare Ayade de Septon Et HDC (Wandor van de Mispelaere x Belle d’Avril du Mazy) changes rider, going from Kevin Staut to French junior Valentine Delaveau – the 17-year-old daughter of Patrice Delaveau.
With Staut in the saddle, Ayade de Septon Et HDC has jumped to numerous five-star victories at venues such as Basel, Gothenburg, Den Bosch, New York, Paris, St. Tropez, Verona and Zurich.
On their Facebook page, Haras des Coudrettes announces: "There are horses that are not like the others, those who have become full members of the family... Ayade is part of it. After 7 years at the highest level under the saddle of Kevin, our doll deserves to take a breath and make French junior team member Valentine happy. We continue with family, only happiness for the whole HDC team."
