Cottee
Birth year: 2014

What a week in Valencia! The horses are jumping fantastically. The star of the week is certainly Cottee. Following recent wins at HOYs, Arena UK and Addington - Cottee and Laura are showing no signs of stopping. They started their Spanish trip with a win in the 1.40m two phase, and followed that with a win in the Small Grand Prix! Such a super boy!
After 13 years away from the iconic show, Laura Renwick has made a return to The Horse of The Year Show - and what a return it was!
11 year old stallion Cottee stole the show with a win in the Evoke stakes in a competitive class. If Evers Girl also placed 2nd in the Welcome Stakes as did Marseille in the Dolomires Stable Cup!
Team Renwick could not be more proud of the youngsters climbing their way through the ranks. Consistent top placings aren't easy but Laura and her string of future stars have repeatedly dominated the ranks.
NFS Top Gun, is one such horse. Not only did the pair synch the win in the competitive 7 and 8 year old final at Hickstead, they also finished top of the podium in the 7 year old final at Bolesworth and Chard.
Laura and stallion Top Star C have been additionally successful, securing top placings in age classes as well as Foxhunter classes - putting the pressure on some more experienced rides.
Not to be outdone by the 7 year olds, the 6 year olds have also been making a splash on the showjumping scene. D-YONS YVON VHS Z, NFS Taluga and Opium VD Kruisslbrink took 1st, 2nd and 3rd at the Hickstead Derby Meeting, in an incredibly competitive class.
Laura and 8 Year old Marseille have been another unstoppable duo. Not only did they win the 4* Grand Prix at Bolesworth, they also took the win in the Grand Prix at the Suffolk show, with additional top placings at Hickstead, The Royal Norfolk and South of England. Is there nothing they can't do?
With HOY's just around the corner, we're super excited to see how Laura and this stellar string of young horses perform!
