KILDARE’S Judy Reynolds and her loyal partner Vancouver K returned to the dressage arena for the first time since placing fourth at the FEI World Cup Finals in April and landed two four-star wins in Fritzens-Schindlhof, Austria, in their preparation for the European Championships in August.

The Olympic combination picked up their first win of the weekend in Friday’s Grand Prix with the Joe and Kathleen Reynolds-owned 15-year-old gelding. Reynolds scored 75.58% to take the top prize, more than three percentage points ahead of German runner-up Dorothee Schneider with Fohlenhofs Rock’n Rose (72.340%).
