When Centuri left Europe for India in January 2025, the goal was simple but ambitious: find a horse with enough quality and rideability to support a young rider on the rise. The decision was made with long-term development in mind, balancing Centuri’s proven character with the talent and determination of his new partner, Aradhana Anand of Covai Stables.
Within just a few months, the results began to speak for themselves. Centuri and Aradhana quickly established a rhythm in training, and by September they stepped into one of the most important youth competitions on the calendar, the FEI Jumping Children’s Classic 2025, hosted by Embassy International Riding School.
Over the course of the weekend, the pair delivered rounds of maturity and consistency well beyond their short time together. They not only won the Individual Gold Tour title, but also secured the Overall Gold Tour championship, finishing ahead of talented rivals Harshvardhan Singh and Sresht Raju Mantena. Every jump reflected confidence, clarity, and a natural connection that confirmed why this match was made.
This double victory did more than add trophies to the cabinet. It elevated Aradhana onto the world stage, placing her 10th in the FEI Jumping Children’s Classic World Championship standings. For a rider still at the beginning of her international journey, that kind of ranking signals a future filled with opportunity.
From Bridl’s perspective, Centuri’s story is a case study in thoughtful placement. He was not simply sold as a horse with ability, but as a partner who could shape and support a career. By aligning his temperament and experience with Aradhana’s potential, the result has been immediate success and the foundation for years of growth.
As Aradhana and Centuri continue to compete, they are proving that the right partnership can accelerate development and create international recognition. For Bridl, it is exactly the kind of outcome that defines our mission: connecting horses and riders where both can thrive.
