Nicola Philippaerts has acquired a new ride, Aikido Z (Accardi x Corrado I) and the pair will be showing together at CSIO3* Roeser in Luxembourg this weekend. The 11-year-old stallion bred by Annick Bijloos has before been seen under the saddle of other Belgian riders; Jeroen Appelen and Jan Motmans. With Motmans the stallion has been successful on the two and three star level, placing 8th in the Grand Prix at CSI2* Lier in June and second in the Grand Prix at CSI3* Lummen in May.
