The 8-year-old stallion Le Blue Diamond v’t Ruytershof (Plot Blue x Diamant de Semilly) will in the future be seen under Olivier Philippaerts. Le Blue Diamond is a son of Diamanthina van’t Ruytershof, herself successful in the international sport under Constant Van Paesschen and Niels Bruynseels. 

Le Blue Diamond v’t Ruytershof has been brought up to 1,45/1,50m level by Jan Vermeiren, who also owns the stallion together with Joris de Brabander.

“I’m very excited for the future with Blue Diamond, and think it is a horse that for sure will be very useful for me,” Olivier Philippaerts comments to World of Showjumping. “I will take my time with him and start to do some bigger classes in Oliva Nova next year. I’m very happy with the partnership with Jan Vermeiren. We have worked together for the last couple of years already and we have some more young horses coming up together in our partnership.”
