Gestüt Pallerhaff with super mare as reserve champion at DSP mare championship today

10 sports mares selected for the final at the 2nd mare championship in Munich
Among them was the now 4 year old mare Sonnerie Souveraine by Sezuan / Silvermoon, bred and owned by Luxemburg based Danish Jens Thorsen, Gestüt Pallerhaff. Sonnerie Souveraine became reserve champion today at the DSP mare show.
Back in August 2018 Sonnerie Souveraine became champion mare at the elite mare show at Landgestüt Zeibrücken.
Out of the same Silvermoon mare Thorsen has a successful full brother, now 5 year old Spectre which last year became both Landespferdechampion, reserve champion at South German Riding horse championships and bronze winner at the Bundeschampionate in Warendorf under Kristine Møller, Gestüt Pallerhaff.
Sommelie Souveraine looks like a very special mare bringing three top gaits and a very elegant type, for sure an interesting mare also for breeding. From H2R point of view the champion mare today.
“Sommelie is just very lightly ridden, and showing super nice qualities for the future, but we (rider Kristine Møller) has no hurry starting her education, and the plans for now is to try to do embryo transfers in the spring,” tells Jens Thorsen.
FEI PRESS RELEASE - Werth and Weihegold are untouchable in Amsterdam
Four-time series champion, Germany’s Isabell Werth, stamped her authority all over the opposition with another superb win at the eighth leg of the FEI Dressage World Cup™ 2018/2019 Western European League in Amsterdam (NED) today riding Weihegold OLD. (FEI/Arnd Bronkhorst)
Germany dominates podium with Schneider in second and Langehanenberg in third
Four-time series champion, Isabell Werth (49) from Germany, stamped her authority all over the opposition with another superb win at the eighth leg of the FEI Dressage World Cup™ 2018/2019 Western European League in Amsterdam (NED) today.
Having lifted the trophy for the last two years, Werth is automatically qualified for the 2019 Final in Gothenburg (SWE) in April. Her only task throughout the season is to compete twice with the horse with which she intends to defend her title, and after winning in Lyon (FRA) with Emilio and stealing the show in Stuttgart (GER) with Bella Rose, she showed just how spoiled she is for choice when coming out on top once more today, this time with the brilliant mare Weihegold OLD who carried her to victory in both 2017 and 2018.
The most medalled athlete in equestrian sport, who is targeting her fifth title and her third in a row, was delighted with Weihegold’s performance this afternoon, especially following some unexpected shenanigans on their way to pole position in yesterday’s Grand Prix.
"Today she was much more calm - yesterday she did the first part of the test nicely, but she really turned it on in the canterwork and we couldn’t manage the two-tempis! Today she was much more cool. The thing about her is that sometimes she just wants it all too much - but this is a mistake I can live with!"
Isabell Werth (GER)
On a day of total German domination, her compatriots Dorothee Schneider (49) riding Sammy Davis Jr and Helen Langehanenberg (36) partnering Damsey FRH finished second and third, while fourth place went to popular Swede, Patrik Kittel (42) with Delauney OLD. Schneider has now moved to the head of the Western European League leaderboard from which the top nine will qualify for the Final.
Langehanenberg, series champion in 2013, set the first half of the competition alight with a technically tough but superbly executed Freestyle from the 17-year-old Damsey who was with her every inch of the way to take the lead with a score of 82.440 that would not be easy to catch. Denmark’s Daniel Bachmann Andersen posted 80.400 with the lovely 11-year-old stallion Blue Hors Don Olymbrio, but the pair who topped the previous leg in Mechelen (BEL) last month, The Netherlands’ Hans Peter Minderhoud and Glock’s Dream Boy NOP, squeezed them out of temporary second spot when putting 81.380 on the board.
And then, with four left to go, Schneider’s Sammy Davis Jr swaggered his way to the top of the scoreboard with a brilliant test that included spectacular trot-work and perfect passage. Their mark of 82.675 was now the one to beat, and Kittel came close when Delaunay OLD was awarded 82.440 for a very difficult floorplan, while the penultimate partnership of Judy Reynolds and Vancouver K danced their way to 80.290. On a day of competition that was of championship standard this would slot her into seventh place and set a new Irish international record score, so her support crew were already celebrating as she left the arena.
Last in however, Werth and Weihegold were in a league of their own, the mare producing a near-seamless test that clearly demonstrated her extraordinary skills and those of her truly exceptional rider. “She was full of focus and motivation today - really fantastic”, the German legend said of her horse whose beautiful big ears were standing to attention all the way through their test.
Werth plans to do both of the two remaining Western European League qualifiers, on home ground at Neumunster (GER) in three weeks time and ’s-Hertogenbosch (NED) in March, giving both Emilio and Weihegold another outing each. And she’s really looking forward to the Final in Gothenburg.
It’s 27 years since she won her first FEI Dressage World Cup™ title in that same Swedish city in 1992, “and it’s very special to go back, I always really love going there because it’s a fantastic show!” she said today. But, typically modest, she wouldn’t be drawn on the prospect of posting that fifth series success.
"I would never say I’m going there to win - I’ve been doing this job for a long time now and you never know what’s going to happen. You know me, I always like to keep both feet on the ground!!"

Danish Daniel Bachmann Andersen honoured with "Best Dressage Rider Award 2018" by L´Année Hippique
In December last year Daniel Bachmann Andersen received the “Shooting Star” award at PSI gala show, and today the young Danish rider was honoured ones more - this time with the prestigious title “Best Dressage Rider Award 2018”, a vote decided by the audience (readers) of L´Année Hippique.

Even with errors for the two times Weihegold OLD and Isabell Werth are just collecting so many 8,0, 8,5 and 9,0 marks and then also with room for weaker extensions and half passes, and then today again with more times 10 for the final. At the same time the sharpness is for a split second lost towards the final halt, as if Weihe said “can I stop now?”, but at same time Isabell just ask Weihe to keep on to finish the job - It´s all about the timing.
For both Schneider and Langehanenberg it was not their best performances, both with minor errors.
Dream Boy and Minderhoud showing an overall sharp test with a few minor things. Halt with rein back with 6 steps backwards, small tension at the end of the extended walk when Minderhoud is picking up the reins Dream Boy is ready, and with an error at the end of the one times. Very nice final and the stallion showing so much elasticity all the way. From kiss and cry Gal is showing Minderhoud to smile - this was a really nice test.
Delaunay OLD with Kittel has really settled at the top level delivering +75% and today without exception.
Best test ever from now 17 year old Vancouver K and Judy Reynolds, in terms of the piaffe tours, as they are often from H2R point of view shown as 100% controlled tension, today with very nice qualities.
Blue Hors Don Olymbrio with Daniel Bachmann Andersen showed a strong test, unfortunately something dangerous showed up in the corner at K, but Daniel managed very well except from at few spooky moments which of course was reflected at the scoreboard. “Expect for the “interesting” part, I’m very happy about his development,” says Daniel.
H2R comments during the test: Blue Don Olymbrio DEN - good halt, super extension, nice flow go for half passes good crossing, bit open halt super nice rein back, nice transitions, lack bit energy for piaffe but keeps the rhythm nicely, good passage, good walk tour, 2nd piaffe 15 steps and out bit tension from Don O but stays, nice transition to canter, big big eyes for the corner, nice big 2 times, lost canter after extended canter in the dangerous corner but did change, bit unbalanced zig-zag, Daniel attacks the 1 times successful (towards the dangerous corner), good pirouettes, good extended trot towards K, super smooth final centerline.

The dream of the next super star - the full sister of Danish Warmblood stallion Sezuan
Bo Brink, Selina Solberg Vittinghus with Napfes Faa Ipoipo and Merete Berg Sørensen
It started with the purchase of an embryo in utero
Nafea Faa Ipoipo (“When do you want to get married”) was purchased as an embryo in utero back in 2014, and for the Danish breeders Merete Berg Sørensen and Bo Brink (Netstutteriet) back then it was with huge excitement and of course the dream as a breeder. The way from the purchase of the embryo to the foal being born, and now having a 4 year old beautiful and talented mare with the most exciting bloodlines has made the dream come true.
Last year Nafea proved herself as a broodmare as she had a fantastic embryo foal by Franklin, sold for the top price of 121.000 euros at Danish Warmblood Elite Foal auction to Helgstrand Dressage.
Experienced and successful young horse rider
Nafea is now 4 year old and ready for starting her education. The breeders has already been working together with Selina Solberg Vittinghus (rider at Stud Atterupgaard) with some other young horses, and for about 1,5 year ago Selina purchased a part of Danish Warmblood mare Netstutteriets Donna Mi by Blue Hors Don Schufro/Come Back II, a cooperation which Merete and Bo really appreciate, so the choice of the rider for the future education of Nafea was quite obvious.
Breeder Merete Berg Sørensen and Bo Brink tells: “We think that Selina is really unique for the education of the young horses, and with her great work with Donna Mi the decision was clear when thinking about the best future for Nafea. Selina has been riding Nafea since 1 December and she is very excited about her. We have Nafea stabled at the equestrian center Slangerupgaard where Merete is manager, and there we have all facilities for building up the young horse. And when Selina is training Nafea Merete is drive her to Stud Atterupgaard.
It is of course our plan to flush embryos from Nafea while she is being educated under Selina, and hopefully she will be successful in the sport as her brother (Sezuan) and sisters (Straight Horse Sezuanna and Straight Horse Ascenzione) - we are very excited about this future combination and hope for a lot of great experiences,” Merete and Bo says.
An extraordinary horse
For Selina as a rider it is of course another great opportunity to get the ride of a mare like Nafea. Alongside her job as rider for the very well known and successful Danish Stud Atterupgaard, Selina has been riding both Netstutteriet Donna Mi and a couple of other horses for Merete and Bo, and through this collaboration Selina is full of excitement for Nafea.
As Selina tells: “Nafea is a special horse, she has not been ridden that much yet, I’ve had her under saddle since December , and I really get the feeling that she brings something extra. For now its all about building her slowly up, and hopefully she will be ready for Danish Warmblood Young Horse ability test this autumn, with the big goal World Championship for Young Horses in 2020.”

No 43 - elasticity and expression, even though he is not showing any canter. Superb supple angle from behind.
No 50 - super lovely model with suppleness and expression pure.

No 58 - impressive stallion showing lots of power and expression.
No 72 - super supple both hind and front, but the back is definitely only for a 16” saddle.

Sezuan will not be available for the breeders in 2019 - full focus on further education

How is Sezuan doing?
Since the spring 2018 we haven’t heard anything about the Danish Warmblood top stallion Sezuan himself. And of course a lot of people and breeders are keen to know a bit from this top producer himself.
“Sezuan is doing very well, he is in training with Patrik Kittel, and this year he will not do the stallion show in Denmark.
Sezuan is not gonna do the demanding double job for both sport and breeding, we want him to fully concentrate for the further dressage education, and he will therefore only be available via frozen semen in 2019. A decision that we do not find easy, but which is certainly in the interests of the stallion”, says Gestüt Peterhof.

Søndagens klasser med god ridning og highlights
Grand Prix Special
I eftermiddagens Grand Prix Special vandt Anna Kasprzak ikke overraskende igen sammen med Rock Star. Anna får redet et flot trav program med gode passage ture og øgninger, god skridt tur, den første piaffe mangler lidt mere energi af jorden med fint på stedet, mens den næste piaffe starter en smule fremadgående og hvor Anna så beder Rock Star blive på stedet, og som lykkedes rigtig fint og med god overgang ud. Galop turen bliver desværre med et par dyre fejl i begge serier på diagonal med fejl.
Nr. 2 bliver Mikaela Fabricius-Bjerre med Belissimo L, hvor det lykkedes at holde fokus hos Belissimo hele vejen selvom der nogle ubalancerede momenter under vejs.
Første placeret bliver Camilla Ahlers Pedersen med Chadunno. En ekvipage som giver et flot sidebillede i en flot form og som samler værdifulde point hele turen, samtidig med at Chadunno ikke har nogle øvelsesmæssige svagheder. Eneste ting at pege lidt fingre af i dag var den samlede skridt frem mod den første piaffe som bliver med nogle spændinger, og så får Camilla desværre kun talt til 13 i etter serien på diagonalen.
Intermediaire I
Carina Nevermann Torup og Ray Dance vinder fortjent klassen med 71,930%. Carina rider turen med godt overblik og Ray Dance viser smidig versade, volte, traversade til begge sider, gode øgninger med dejlig udtryk, god skridttur, fin balance i zig-zag galoppen, gode serier, begge pirouetter mangler lidt mere balance og centrering. En dejlig naturlig tur at se på.
Desværre var der ikke hul igennem til livestreamingen ved klassen først ekvipage som var Anne Troensegaard med Fürstenblick, men Anne fortæller efterfølgende: “Han bliver til fresh under vejs, og går travturen med dejlig power, der indløber en fejl i toer serien, og knap skarp nok i pirouetterne, men skøn følelse at han er ovenpå og selv “trækker” hele vejen i dag. Det er jo hele tiden den udvikling man stræber efter med den unge hest,” siger Anne.
Nr. 3 bliver “still going strong” Langkjærgaards Donna Fetti som efterhånden er blevet en voksen dame som runder de 18 år i år. Super fit og korrekt tur sammen med Victoria K. Pedersen.
Nr. 4 bliver Præsteskovens Raquel med Maria Anita Andersen, en super dejlig powerful hoppe som i dag blev ramt lidt af 7´er barrieren, da rigtig mange ting var med power, super balance og kvalitet, men desværre også et par fejl. En super flot ekvipage som er spændende at følge.
Rune Willum og hoppen Bonnaquiqui løber ind i nogle spændinger under vejs i dag, men skøn power og lethed og frem for alt med tydeligt tryk fra bagbenene frem mod en konstant og korrekt samling.

Severo og Fiontini med rigtig flot Grand Prix i Esbjerg i dag
Fiontini og Severo Jurado Lopez - photo credit: H2R
Severo gør klar til Tokyo sammen med Fiontini
75,133% var bestemt ikke overbetalt fra de 3 dommere i dag. Det er skønt at se den udtryksfulde og velgående hoppe bevare alle sine kvaliteter også på Grand Prix niveauet med de sværest øvelser. Severo rider med vanlig ro og overblik, og giver sig tid til at gøre hver øvelse færdig, det er en fornøjelse at følge. Parret leverede en fejlfri tur, med en lille uoverensstemmelse inde i den 2. piaffe tur hvor Fiontini svare let igen i et enkelt trin i piaffen, og generelt er der stadig en del flere point at hente, så det lover bestemt godt for fremtiden.
Nu kan vi bare glæde os til at følge ekvipagen internationalt, og det ville jo være en fantastisk oplevelse hvis Severo vælger at debuten skal være til CDI4 stævnet i forbindelse med Dansk Varmblods hingstekåring i Herning - vi krydser fingre.
Anna Kasprzak og Rock Star bliver nr. 2 med 73,267%. Ekvipagen leverer en fejlfri tur med god energi og udtryk. Det bliver helt sikkert også en sæson hvor vi vil se Anna international med både Rock Star og Quarton, da de jo skal “erstatte” Pepe.
Nanna Merrald og Sådan Que kæmper lidt med serierne og i dag var det etterne som ikke ville lykkedes, men ellers en stærk tur med god udtryk og dejlig balance. Changementet efter den frie galop smutter desværre også.
En ny ung ekvipage på Grand Prix niveauet er 11-årige Chadunno med Camilla Ahler Pedersen. Parret har startet Grand Prix nogle gange sidste år. Turen i dag er i god balance og med et nydeligt billede. Der indløber lidt ærgerlig fejl i etterne i dag.
Adrenalin Firfod og Helene Melsen kæmper desværre i dag med lidt for mange småfejl under vejs, og slutter som nr. 10 ud af de 16 ekvipager. Det var tydeligt at Adrenalin følte sig bedre tilpas i Inter II programmet i går.
Det var gensyn med den succesfulde avlshingst Skovens Rafael og Lotte Skjærbæk. Desværre var Rafael ikke helt enig med Lotte i piaffe turene i dag og det blev selvfølgelig dyrt.

Nanna Merrald med hattrick og særdeles lovende debutanter i dagens Intermediaire II i Esbjerg
Agnete Kirk Thinggaard med Blue Hors Zatchmo - photo credit: H2R
Flere debutanter på banen og en enkelt i dommerburet også
Normalt er det altid med fokus på ekvipagerne på banen, men ved dommer H i dag var der endnu en debutant på sværeste niveau nemlig Christine Winter Prip. Tilbage i november til CDI3 stævnet på Blue Hors bestod Prip sin dommer eksamen som A+, og var dermed klar til de helt store opgave.
Prip startede sin dommerkarriere tilbage i 2000, og specielt de seneste år hvor der er kommet meget mere fokus på rekruttering har det naturligt også givet både motivation og ambitioner. “Målet er klart at komme til at dømme internationalt i fremtiden”, siger Prip.
Dagens første ekvipage på banen var Dennis Fisker med Rosenstolz. Parret har snust lidt til niveauet tidligere, og Dennis rider og uddanner Rosenstolz for den malaysiske rytter Quzandria Nur med henblik på evt. OL kvalifikation. Ekvipagen viser en udtryksfuld og flydende travtur, god aktiv passage som bliver momentvis en smule uens, gode piaffe ture med god energi, men mangler endnu at lægge tyngdepunktet helt korrekt, bliver momentvis lidt bag høj. Skridten mangler lidt mere afspændthed og blive momentvis lidt ubalanceret.. Rigtig god galop tur med flotte serie og gode pirouetter med god vinkel, dog får Dennis lagt etterne vel tidligt og er færdig ved X. Parret slutter som nr. 3 med 69,781%.
Debutekvipager
Agnete Kirk Thinggaard og Blue Hors Zatchmo som netop er blevet 10 år er klar til Grand Prix niveauet med virkelig god kvalitet. Zatchmo ligner en hingst som har hele pakken, og som spiller med hele vejen. Parret kommer lidt uheldigt fra start med en fejlridning. Under vejs opstår der lidt mindre misforståelser og ubalancer, men det ligner klart et spørgsmål om rutine. Super vinkel og rytmik i passage og piaffe turene, store flotte changementer og god evne til at sætte sig i pirouetterne. En spændende ny ung Grand Prix hest på vej. Parret slutter som nr. 4 med 68,465%.
Unge Laura Hviid med Darius viser deres første tur sammen i dag. En rigtig fin debut med flot timing hele vejen. Ikke til at se at Laura fornyligt har overtaget tøjlerne fra tidligere ejer Sille Engermann. Det ligner en ekvipage som er klar til at indtage U25 scenen.
Adrenalin Firfod og Helene Melsen har været succesfulde på lille-tur´s niveauet, og har tidligere startet Inter II en enkelt gang sidste år med en sejr. Opgaven så bestemt ikke ud til at kyse den 10 årige Adrenalin Firfod, ingen tekniske fejl og Helene rider turen med godt overblik og får vist rigtige gode kvaliteter under vejs, hvor det kun ser ud som om, det er den sidste styrke og rutine som mangler, for at give det sidste udtryk.
Det var Nanna´s dag i dag
“Det har været en fed dag”, var første indskydelse fra Nanna da H2R spurgte om dagens bedrifter, som jo talte hele 3 sejre.
“Det er jo sådan dage man kan leve længe på. Jeg startede med Blue Hors Zirrus og havde en super tur med mange gode ting. Næste var dagens højdepunkt Blue Hors St. Schufro, som havde debut i MA1, og sikke en tur! Havde en super fornemmelse, og han er så ærlig og med på legen hele vejen. Der var selvfølgelig plads til forbedringer, men alt i alt kunne jeg ikke havde drømt om en bedre tur. Sidste hest var Sådan Que, som erstattede Wasabi i dag, da Wasabi desværre hoster. Hun var også meget fin, vi havde fejl i to´erne, og ellers super fin.
Det var en travl dag men min hestepasser Ellen er guld værd, hun har bare styr på hestene og det hele, og så det er virkelig dejligt, nu glæder vi os bare til i morgen,” slutter Nanna.
