1st observation with selection for the German Young Horses in Warendorf today
This is not a stallion competition even though there are many highly frequented stallions among the participants, and also with many international top riders. Today’s comments immediately after each test was made by German national team coach Monica Theodorescu.
Among the 7 year old 14 combinations were selected, and the 14 combinations must be reduced to just 7 combinations. (NED 6, DEN 4, SWE 4). The final selection is 2nd July in Warendorf.
From today’s presentations and subsequent comments from German national team coach Monica Theodorescu, H2R dare to make THE list with the 7 combinations for WCYH today.
Bondeman / Betina Jæger Jensen - today’s most harmonious and effortless test, pure words of praise from Theodorescu.
D´avie / Severo Jurado Lopez - bit tension from start with the trot tour, beautiful frame, power and qualities in all three gaits including the demanding canter tour with both half pirouettes and series.
DSP Dominy / Therese Nilshagen - effortless and correct with three correct basis gaits showing nice elasticity and suppleness.
Fürst Donnerhall / Claudia Rassmann - beautiful picture, nice light uphill frame with good elasticity from behind.
Matchball OLD / Stefanie Wolf - well balanced, well trained and well presented.
Sisters Act OLD / Dorothee Schneider - very correct with good qualities.
Top Gear or Total Hope both with Isabel Freese for the final spot.
Missing from the list is Voile Rouge by Vitalis ridden by Isabel Freese, super expressive mare with power and three really good gaits, just a bit unbalanced for a few moments today, but showing huge potential.
