Oleksandr Onyshchenko just bought the nine-year-old AES stallion Velini (Cheers Cassini) out of Michael Whitaker’s string of horses. In the same barn, the Ukraïnian earlier this year found Calcourt Falklund. Velini still was owned by the Davies family, the breeders of the horse. Velini performed internationally under the saddle of Joseph Clayton lately. He won the NC of Gijon after a double clear. In the Sires of the World of Lanaken he placed fifth after a beautiful and clean jump-off. It was the last competition for Great-Britain of this pure British bred horse.
