As a 5 year old he finished 6th in the Swedish Championsip and at 6, he qualified for the final of the open Swedish Championship at Falsterbo. He was one of the most talked about young horses at International shows while ridden by Malin Baryard-Johnsson, impressing breeders and sports people alike.
At 8 years old Corporal VDL made his debut at 1.50m, claiming 5th in 1.50m in London and jumping double clear in 1.50m Verona. In 2013 Corporal VDL started 42 times and jumped 39 of them double clear. In 2014 he started 36 times and jumped 28 of them faultless. Amazing, Careful and Clean.
