Screen+Shot+2019-10-02+at+09.51.30.jpg

A huge collection of riding horses and foals, while the collection of young stallions is with just 15 dressage colts.

As usual H2R has picked our favourites for the collection.


No 4 - absolute top price. Lovely boy with nice suppleness and freedom, still lacking some more strength but with good carriage and nice light frame.

No 7 - 3 year old mare, still very baby like mostly for the canter, but showing some really nice moments, including nice walk.

No 64 - 5 year old stallion, very functional paces with good freedom for the trot and with nice self carriage. Good canter and very nice walk.

No 82 - 4 year old gelding, showing nice balance in all 3 paces and a super nice natural frame.

No 83 - 6 year old gelding, showing nice rhythm and balance for all 3 paces with good self carriage.

No 88 - 4 year old Fürstenball gelding, looks like a very nice and easy horse with natural suppleness and good balance.

No 89 - big 4 year old not the most modern type but for sure an interestering horse for further education.

Elite foals

Unfortunately missing some videos of foals for the collection.

Young stallions

The young stallions here for the auction are only shown in trot and walk by hand, still missing lunging including canter.

HERE you find the entire collection.

Daniel Bachmann Andersen test rider for Danish Warmblood Young Horse Championship 2020

IMG_9187.jpg

FEI World Ranking no 6 and no 11 is ready to test the best 5 year old Danish Warmblood horses at Young Horse Championship in Herning, taking place from 5 - 8 March 2020.

29 year old Danish international rider Daniel Bachmann Andersen from Danish Stud Blue Hors, will be ready to test the 24 best Danish Warmblood Young Horses at the Young Horse Championship in Herning.

Back in 2015 Bachmann started as rider by Blue Hors, and he has during the years been very successful educated more horses to Grand Prix level, and he is at the moment placed as no 6 with Blue Hors Zack and no 11 with Blue Hors Don Olymbrio at FEI World Ranking.

About the new challenge Daniel Bachmann Andersen tells: “ I’m looking very much forward to do this job. It´s gonna be really exciting to try so many high quality young horses. I will try to tell and explain about the education of the young horse, the different phases the young horse going through, and how some horses can be ready at a quite early stage, where others need more time to develop and learn which is not always a negative way for the further development.”

Danish Warmblood general manager Casper Cassøe Krüth is very pleased about having Daniel Bachmann for the test riding in 2020, and says: “Daniel is Denmarks highest ranked international rider at the moment, and through his great experience and successes Danish Warmblood are of course proud to wellcome Daniel for the test riding next year, and we are sure Daniel will give both the horses and the audience a very nice experience.”

Unghestechampionatet 2020 klar med nyt spændende format

IMG_8952.jpg

Inden årets egenthedtester går i gang er Dansk Varmblod klar med et væsentligt “ansigtsløft” af Unghestechampionatet i Herning.

“Vi har rigtig høj kvalitet af ungheste i Danmark, og vi ved at de skaber opmærksomhed over hele verden, så derfor vil vi jo også gerne vise endnu flere gode ungheste i løbet af dagene i Herning. Og det nye format her, giver chancen for, at vores avlere, hesteejere og ryttere i endnu større grad kan være en del af Dansk Varmblods Unghestechampionat”, fortæller direktør Casper Cassøe Krüth.

Med det nye format tilgodeser Dansk Varmblod i endnu højere grad at flere kan deltage, der stilles ikke krav om at de 5 års heste skal være klar til at gå program så tidligt på året, og når man ikke med til test-rytter delen, blandt de 24 bedste i Herning, har man nu stadig chancen via en B-finale. Det betyder at alle ekvipager skal ride 3 gange i Unghestechampionatet.

De væsentlige ændringer er:

Flere deltagere - større bredde

Hidtil har man rundt omkring i regionerne kæmpet om 35 pladser til Herning samt 10 reserver, det ændres nu til 50 pladser samt 10 reserver. Det åbner op for at flere ekvipager, avlere og ejere får mulighed for en helt ekstra oplevelse at kvalificere sig til Unghestechampionatet.

Mere publikumsvenligt og mindre stævne træning for de unge heste

Det nuværende koncept fastholdes for så vidt angår førstedagen i Herning, hvor 3 ekvipager er på banen af gangen. En super god måde for rytterne at få vist hestene omgivelserne, og for dommerne at få et førstehåndsindtryk af ekvipagerne.

Dag 2 - Der rides ikke længere programridning, men istedet bliver hestene præsenteret 2 ad gangen for 3 dommere hvor de rider anviste LA1 øvelser (1 dommer er gennemgående fra første dagen og 2 andre er nye dommere), dermed kravet om at de unge heste skal være klar til at gå et fuldt program også lempet. Efter hvert hold er der mundlige kommentarer og pointgivning til ekvipagerne.

Efter Dag 2 går de bedste 24 ekvipager videre til testrytter-delen som vi kender det fra det nuværende koncept, og de resterende 26 ekvipager er klar til B-finalen.

B-finalen - der er endnu mere at ride om selvom man ikke går videre til testrytter delen

Det nye koncept giver plads til alle, og giver mulighed for en spændende finale for de ekvipager som ikke er blandt de 24 bedste efter de to første dage. For en ekvipage som er klar til B-finalen bliver resultatet fra de foregående to dage nulstillet og man starter på en pointmæssigt helt frisk dag i B-finalen.

I B-finalen sidder 2 nye dommere klar. Rytterne rider 2 ad gangen på banen, med anvisninger fra dommerne (ligesom på 2. dagen), hvor der gives mundlige karakterer og point - ridelighed, kapacitet, skridt, trav og galop.

Flotte doteringer for begge finaler

Hele Unghestechampionatet sluttes af om søndagen med to præmieoverrækkelser for både de placerede heste i Unghestechampionatet som er blevet bedømt under testrytter, og de heste som er placeret i B-finalen.

A big step into the international arena

A surreal experience and a dream came true is the way Danish amateur rider Sanne Svendsen describes her weekend at CDI Flyinge. “It´s always been a dream entering the international scene and actually being here now felt a bit odd. I’m very pleased about our performance today and was a bit disappointed about our Grand Prix as I felt we were missing some more sharpness. I’m over the moon with todays placement and it really gives me the confidence to try this international level another time.”

“It´s been a great adventure being able to educate and develop Hannah Montana W all the way, with the best supervisor Cathrine Dufour,” tells Sanne.

Danish Sanne Svendsen and Danish Warmblood mare Hannah Montana W by Blue Hors Doolittle / Sydney bred by Henrik Wiborg made their international debut yesterday in the Grand Prix and were placed in todays CDI3 Grand Prix Special as no 4 with 69,276%.

Today’s winner Swedish Sandra Dahlin with her homebred mare Ichi brings a very special story. Many years ago Sandra and her mom brought a lottery during Scandinavium international horse event and won a mare. This mare Sandra started riding but unfortunately she got injured and they agreed having foal, this foal is today’s winner 13 year old Ichi by Boticelli / Donnerschlag. A very powerful mare with super qualities and expression all the way - winning score 73,255%. And what a fantastic reaction from Dahlin when finishing her top test.

For the top talented 8 year old mare Heiline´s Danciera the exercises for today’s debut at Grand Prix Special became a bit confusing, but nevertheless still with a lot of highlights and the top quality is obvious. Next international event for the young mare will be the CDI at Blue Hors in October.

Most expensive at Swedish Elite foal auction by Franklin sold for 340.000 Swedish kroner (31.700 euro)

Föl-217835-e-Franklin-Sandro-Hit.jpg

No 14 the colt by Franklin / Sandro Hit showed himself with extra quality already from the video presentation and he did not disappoint. He was sold to a costumer

2nd most expensive foal became no 12 by Total Hope / Ampere sold for 280.000 Swedish kroner (about 26.000 euro) - purchased by Danish Carina Cassøe Krüth and Petra Trabjerg.

Danish Anne Troensegaard and Kipling TSF took CDI3 Intermediaire I freestyle victory Flyinge today

Every competition rider going into the arena to try to do their best, but knowing Anne Troensegaard she just not want to do her best, she also wants to win - and today she succeeded with top qualities.

Starting their test with canter pirouettes at the centerline and then showing lots of power for trot tour, the only minor issue was extended canter towards another pirouette where Kipling changed canter at the extension. Overall super balanced test with lots of qualities.

Her 9 year old Trakehner gelding Kipling TSF by Hofrat / Hohenstein bred by Peter Christensen, was very successful as a young horse, as he was part of the Danish team for World Championships Young Horses as both 6 year old and again as 7 year old where they won the bronze medal.

After an injury break Kipling and Anne are really back in business with today’s impressive 78,245% and with yesterday’s 3rd place at Prix Sct. Georg we can just look forward seeing them again, and next time will be at World Cup event in Herning DEN in the small tour.

More Danish success at 2nd place and 5th place

Danish Michael Søgaard and Slæbækgård´s Santino by Sir Donnerhall I / Carano bred by Dorthe Bak Himmelstrup won yesterday’s international Prix Sct. Georg and today they showed the same high qualities throughout their test.

Carina Cassøe Krüth brought her 7 year old Heiline´s Zackton by Zack / Come Back II, bred by Stutteri Heiline. It was his first ever international event and with yesterday’s 4th place and today’s 5th place he has entered the international small tours scene with style.

Strong Danish combinations at Prix Sct. Georg

Danish Michael Søgaard and his Danish Warmblood gelding Slæbækgårds Santino showed a strong performance today. Super smooth and expressive trot tour in a good balance and with a nice frame all the way, the walk tour becomes a bit tense for the collected part, and lack a bit more suppleness and over track for the extension. Well managed canter tour with nice half pirouettes and good series except a small error going into the 4 times with the first change with parallel hind.

Also placed was Anne Troensegaard with trakehner gelding Kipling TSF. Anne is also showing great power for the trot tour in a nice self carriage and with nice suppleness, nice walk tour but both pirouettes lack bit more clear collection, for the canter tour Kipling was late on the aides for the change after half passes and for the 2nd pirouette Kipling lost the canter into the pirouette. Good series.

Another international debut ride for Carina Cassøe Krüth today, this time with the 7 year old Heiline´s Zackton, showing a smooth test without any technical issues. Zackton showing a good trot tour, nice walk with good relaxation, and a strong canter tour with huge ability for the pirouettes. Unfortunately like for Carina´s ride with Danciera american judge Anne Gribbons had her 5% lower than the highest score. (For the GP the difference between Gibbons and highest score was 6% - the other judges were at same level).

Stud Atterupgaard was represented with two horses, Atterupgaards Mahonia ridden by Swedish Pernilla Andre Hokfelt, owner Hamilton Horse. Same owner of the newly crowned Champion mare of the year at Danish Warmblood Atterupgaards Lady Hamilton by Dante Weltino. Atterupgaard rider Norwegian Selina Solberg Vittinghus was showing Atterupgaards Kawasaki, and for both horses a few minor issues kept them away from the top of the class.

A special mare showing the full package

“When you have a very talented young horse at your stable, there is no certainty for the full package”, tells Danish Grand Prix rider Carina Cassøe Krüth after her international Grand Prix victory today with the just 8 year old Danish Warmblood mare Heiline´s Danciera by Fürstenball / De Niro, bred by Stutteri Heiline and owned by Ingrid and Poul Thøgersen.

The black beautiful mare has already been very successful in the young horse classes together with Carina Cassøe Krüth. As 7-year-old she was winning the Danish national Young Horse Championship, and been part of the Danish Warmblood team and been in the final as 5 year old, 6 year old and 7 year old at World Championship for Young Horses.

“Already at the age of 6 Danciera showed how easy she took the new challenge for the flying changes, and when starting playing with the more collected trot the suspension for the passage was just there, and putting it together while working on small steps it became just a new and quite easy challenge. Going from a single flying change and slowly building up for the series seems to be a natural way of developing her. I feel very blessed having Danciera in my stable and looking forward developing her now at Grand Prix level, and I felt it would be good timing showing her at international level for the first time at Flyinge this weekend”, says Carina.

Danciera and Carina made their national debut at Grand Prix level at the end of August.

Results from the first 2019 German autumn stallion performance test at Adelheidsdorf

Drosa Escobello by Escolar / Belissimo M - photo credit: Kiki Beelitz


The best 4 year old from the final testing day was Drosa Escobello. The young stallion brings a very interesting history, as he back in 2015 became Champion colt of the year at the prestigious German foal championship in Lienen.

Drosa Escobello is owned in partnership between Joao Moreira (From32GP) and Roberto Pedrosa (Haras do Drosa), and is now also approved for HANN Verband. He will for the next season be available for the breeders via From32GP based in Xanten in Nordrhein-Westfalen.

Very interesting to follow this final day with the test riding as it really gives you a great impression from each stallion. Super smooth test riding, and clearly best stallion this day Drosa Escobello, total dressage score 8,70. Light in the contact, super nice expression, good frame, nice balanced, very good self carriage in both trot and canter and good regular walk.

The highest scoring dressage stallion was Rod Laver by Rock Forever I / Fidertanz with a total dressage score of 9,29.
