In general high quality for today´s final qualifier
Yesterday´s WOW horse and easy riding from H2R point of view was for sure the 7 yr old mare Chilly Jam by Romanov / Compliment ridden by Aikje Fehl. And they really managed to bring yesterday´s wow into the entire test today, just with a small error by 3 times with a single 4 times along. This mare bring the whole package - lovely expression, supple mover in all 3 gaits, lovely natural frame with a light contact and very well balanced and quiet in the saddle riding from Aikje Fehl. This is a top combination for the future, and for sure with the high quality for Nürnberger Burg-Pokal final. Score 75,610%.
Eventhough Anabel Balkenhol and Crystal Friendship looked very sharp at yesterday´s qualifier, they did not manage to bring the same strength for today´s test. Bit unbalanced for canter pirouettes, looked a bit like the strength from yesterday failed a bit today. Yesterday with superb series, while the 4 times today were with an error. No doubt this combination will be at the final, just not from the weekend. Placed no 3 today.
Benjamin Werndl showed the 8-yr old Famoso by Farewell III / Welt Hit II. Lovely mover and easy of the ground, nice frame and obedient all the way. A real future horse. Placed no 4 today.
8 yr old Fasine OLD by Fürst Romancier / Sir Donnerhall is now ridden by Rudolf Widmann (former rider Isabel Freese). Fasine became champion at Oldenburg Elite Mare show in 2012 and Bundeschampion as 6-year old. She was sold at PSI auction in 2015 for 1,3 million euros to Dietrich von Boetticher. At this weekends Nürnberger qualifier the mare showed good trot work, bit hurried extensions, good walk, and in general lack of strength for the canter work, which becomes a bit flat and lacking more correct collection. Placed no 10 today.
