Yanyan Hadiansah and Ferry Wahyu Hadiyanto, Equinara’s top riders have been in great form and the horses Bodius and Zandor are in super condition. At the Cinta Indonesia Open at APM Equestrian Center on the 29^th October 2017, Yanyan Hadiansah and Ferry Wahyu Hadiyanto placed first and second in the Marciano Cup.

Christoph Johnen from Germany once again designed the 135-140 cm course. “The competition took place in the indoor arena, which was quite challenging in terms of distances. There was one specific difficulty in the triple combination where there were two short distances and one long distance.” Says Yanyan, who was the only rider who jumped clear in the first round and in the winning round. “Bodius was on fire as usual. He jumped great! The preparation was quite easy as usual with daily flat work exercises and jumping a course once a week. I’m really happy about the result.” He added.

The fight was tight with a starting list consisting of top riders including Marc Boes from Belgium who placed fourth. However, it was quite impressive to have both Equinara riders on the top. “I have to admit Yanyan and Bodius jumped really well and the win was well deserved.” Says Ferry who had a total of 12 jumping penalties.

“The competition was quite tight. Especially with Ferry and Zandor also being in great shape. But I was the one in luck this time. Last year it was Ferry’s win. It is quite amazing that the Equinara team is still in the lead of the Marciano Cup. ” Says Yanyan.

Our very own Ferry Wahyu Hadiyanto was assigned to coach 3 junior riders from Indonesia at an international event, in China. The CSIOJ-B took place in Beijing on the 29^th September 2017 – 1^st October 2017. The overall result was not as expected, however Akbar Maulana was able to win third place. The four junior riders were Akbar Maulana (17 years old), Audirania Amanda Putri (18 years old), Dirga Wira Ramadan (17 years old).

“The riders still need a lot of training especially to enhance their skills and their mental preparation,” said Ferry. The riders did their best at this international event where they did not only compete against Asian countries but many other countries from all over the world. “They had a lot to learn from the other international riders. It was a good experience for them,” added Ferry. The riders who are still very young are only yet exposed to such a big international event and they still have a lot of time to participate in more events like this.

The 29-year-old coach also commented on the development of the sport in other countries compared to Indonesia. According to him other countries may be more developed in terms of facilities, however skill wise they are quite even with the others.

Overall the event was a great opportunity to gain more confidence and experience for the junior riders. “I was very happy to be their coach, as it was also a good experience for me. It really motivated me to develop my skills and knowledge further as a coach.”
