The 11-year-old gelding Classic Man V will have a change of rider, and it is Germany's Johannes Ehning who takes over the reins on the Cornet Obolensky-son.
It was in spring last year that Classic Man V went from Toni Hassmann to Jeroen Dubbeldam, after being competed by Hassmann with good results at 3* and 4* level with wins in the CSI3* Grand Prix in Wiesbaden and the CSI3* Grand Prix in Donaueschingen in 2014 as their best results. With Dubbeldam in the saddle, the gelding won the CSI3* 1.45 VDL Groep Prijs in Drachten in January.
