Olivier Philippaerts' ride Henna de Goedereede (Argentinus x Heartbreaker) has been sold, and the new rider will be Alexandra Thornton.
"Today Henna de Goedereede left our stables to her new owner. Henna was one of the best horses I have ever ridden. I wish this horse and Alexandra Thornton the best of luck in the future!" writes Philippaerts on his Instagram account.
Philippaerts competed the 10-year-old BWP-mare successfully at Grand Prix level, and was placed 6th in this summer's CSI3* Grand Prix in Knokke, as well as having top three-finishes in five-star 1.55m classes in St. Tropez, Estoril and Treffen during the outdoor season.
