Right now Freese sharing the title of 2nd most successful Nürnberger Burg-Pokal rider after the Queen of Dressage Isabell Werth with 4 victories in the history of Nürnberger Burg-Pokal finals.

Werth has previously won:

Together with Dorothee Schneider, Nadine Capelmann, Karin Rehbein and Nicole Uphoff, Isabel Freese shares the 2nd place each with two victories in the final.

This year Freese has already qualified HANN stallion Fürsten-Look, and today with yet another convincing qualification with 8 year old OLD stallion Top Gear by Totilas / Don Frederico.
