World of Showjumping went to take a look at the second horse inspection that took place ahead of Monday's third and last part of the 2016 Longines FEI World Cup. At 7.30 some were quite tired, while others were remarkably fresh. Here Henrik, Nanna and Giljandro van den Bosrand waiting for their turn. All photos (c) Jenny Abrahamsson.
Christian and Colorit strolling around.
Several stallions acted like the stallions they are, and All Star was one of them - trying to eat a bit on Denis while trotting up.
Patrice has found a solution to that problem though: Lacrimoso HDC's teeth are under control.
Jos Verlooy was very late for the vet-check, and came running through the indoor...
...with Jenny and Sunshine waiting for him.
Another stallion: VDL Groep Verdi TN N.O.P.
Chaccorina was well behaved and looked all pretty trotting next to Marco.
Still fresh: Cornado NRW looking playful.
Team Staut getting ready.
First a little cuddle....
... then Chacco Boy decided to steal Mariann's badge.
Nicola Philippaerts would maybe have wished for another hour of sleep! The vet check was at 7.30, and with the transition to summer time it was an early morning for most.
Simon Delestre and Classic Bois Margot waiting with their team.
Some looked more awake and happy than others!
Among them was Sean!
This wasn't the first trot-up for Rich Fellers and 20-year-old Flexible, so with the hand in his pocket Rich headed off. Flexible thought it was enough to run half-way though.
Penelope Leprevost and Vagabond de la Pomme looking fresh and rested.
Edwina with the lovely Caretina de Joter.
Chris Chugg has also done a few trot-ups in his life!
Christian Ahlmann's groom Caroline having a laugh with Edwina.
Callan Solem and VDL Wizzard.
