This weekend, during CHI Geneva, Plot Blue was retired from the sport after a phenomenal career. With Ehning in the saddle, the now 18-year-old stallion by Mr Blue x Pilot won team gold at the 2010 World Championships in Kentucky, as well as team bronze at the 2009 European Championships at Windsor in addition to being crowned World Cup Champion in Geneva in 2010. The two also recorded big victories together in Lyon, Aachen, Paris, Gothenburg, Mannheim, St. Gallen, Cannes and Magna Racino as well as taking Nations Cup wins for Germany at Hickstead (2011 and 2013) and in Falsterbo (2013). Plot Blue also jumped at the 2012 Olympic Games with Ehning in the saddle. We have collected some of the highlights of Plot Blue’s career together with Marcus and Kay. Happy retirement Plotty, and thanks for all the special moments. All photos (c) Jenny Abrahamsson.
