How can you ever top that? 00:01:09:12 Anky van Grunsven: I don’t want to top what I had with Bonfire. I don’t want that, I think its impossible and I think it’s special what we did together. 1 And, the only thing that I try to achieve with my other horses is to have a lot of fun as well, and to see how far I can get.
