Youth Wins Out At The $475,000 Longines Grand Prix

Los Angeles—Sept. 28

Jos Verlooy’s trip to the Longines Los Angeles Masters didn’t start out too well.

On the first day he had, in his words, “a really stupid fence down.” He planned to enter his horse, Domino, in an extra class the next day to smooth out the mistake, but trainer Harrie Smolders talked him out of it.

“He said no, because I was going to jump clear on Sunday,” recalled Verlooy, who, sure enough, topped the $475,000 Longines Grand Prix today. “I believed him, and then I won!”
