10 combinations ready for Louisdor Preis final

The top of today´s preliminary round became very close but from the side line still clear victory for Polish Beata Stremler and her lovely Fürstenball daugther Fürstin Bea OLD. Well balanced with power from first step, showing lovely overall qualities with three really good basic paces, presented in a steady closed uphill frame with good contact and balance all the way. For a few moments you could wish for a bit more, but very clever first performance day from Beata and they definitely look like the full package for Sunday´s final.

Yara Reichert shows her two stallions Springbank II VH and Valverde, shows two really nice performances with very obedient and high talented boys. For some moments Valverde becomes bit to high in the neck and missing the full suppleness over the back and today a few minor things creeping. Springbank is a big supple boy and at the same time he looks super honest and obedient in the ring. The walk has always been a highlight and today he ones again showed his strength.

Also Helen Langehanenberg showing two horses for the finals, Danish Warmblood mare Straight Horse Ascenzione and Schöne Scarlett - both girls still missing bit more security to be in top of the field.

Interesting with Frederic Wandres as co-commentator at Clipmyhorse today, with many nice comments during the performances.

Ingrid Klimke has two Franziskus sons qualified for the final, both with some clear similarities to Franziskus as Frederic Wandres also stated.

Sunday at 9.00 is the final.
