For Jessica and Dalera this was their 2nd +80% Grand Prix test, first time was back in February at World Cup in Neumünster with 81,500%. Strong strong well balanced test, for the tiny details the passage tours were showing a bit tensions hind, but the final centerline was with really World Class balance, power and expression.
Laura Tomlinson with just 3rd international GP with DSP Rose of Bavaria

Lisa and Thomas Müller with D´avie.
Isabell Werth has been visiting Helgstrand Dressage to look for a horse that has the level for competing internationally with her student Lisa Müller. If you think the name sounds familiar, then it is because Lisa is married to the professional football player Thomas Müller, who plays for FC Bayern München.
Grand Prix rider, Lisa Müller has several international victories and her career really took a huge step forward, when Isabell Werth became her trainer in 2016 together with her long-time trainer Götz Brinkmann. This great combination led Lisa to numerous victories together with the horse Stand By Me (Stedinger/De Niro) up till international dressage and a place at the German national B-team. Now Lisa is very happy to add a fantastic Grand Prix horse to her collection, the double World Champion, and acknowledged breeding stallion D’avie.
- I am very pleased that Lisa shall take over the reins and together with Isabell Werth educate him further. He is still a young horse, but with all this potential, there is no limit to what he can achieve. We look very much forward to follow them on their way towards competing on international level, Andreas Helgstrand tells.
D’avie by Don Juan de Hus/Londonderry really has established his name when he together with the Spanish rider Severo Jurado López superior won the prestigious World Championship for Young Horses two years in a row for the 6- and 7-year-old-horses in Ermelo.
D’avie is a horse that has it all for the highest level of competing and also for being a successful breeding stallion. When you see his offspring, it is clear that he passes on his excellent expression, the modern type, and three exceptional gaits.
- D’avie has already shown his worth as a breeding stallion when we see his offspring. We have a corporation with Château de Fontaine in France – a project, that is led by Bolette Wandt. Here eggs from Queenpark’s Wendy have been taken out and we have therefore now seen the first embryo offspring with D’avie as the sire. And I promise you that the foal has exceptional quality! When you combine the best from to worlds, then you get the best result, Andreas tells and adds; the whole concept is to buy talented young horses, educate them, sell them when they are on their way forward in the sport and, very importantly, secure some good offspring from them.
D’avie will still be available for the breeders on terms that are very similar to Helgstrand’s. More information will follow when the new setup for the season 2021 is ready.
Not surprisingly the OUTSTANDING colt by Le Formidable became the top seller at Borculo Elite Foal auction. Very exciting to follow this young boy sold to a Dutch buyer.
Van Olst Horses young stallion Kjento with huge imprint of top foals
2nd most expensive the top colt by Kjento / Krack C secured for Helgstrand Dressage, while 3rd most expensive also by Kjento sold to Spain.
Here you find the entire list of prices.

Covid-19 har vendt op og ned på arrangementer gennem året, men heldigvis lykkedes det at finde et setup, sådan at Equitour Denmark kan afvikles i dagene fra den 4.-6. september med det danske dressurmesterskab. Glæd jer til, når Danmarks absolut bedste dressurryttere gæster Helgstrand Academy i Uggerhalne og dyster om de eftertragtede medaljer – det bliver en sand fest for dressurfolket, hvor jagten på en pladsbillet til Tokyo for alvor indledes.
- Det har krævet mange løbende justeringer, og det har været en lang sej kamp at nå til det setup, som vi nu kan gennemføre. Heldigvis er opbakningen blandt ryttere og publikum stor, og selvom stævnet i år er ret beskedent i forhold til vores sædvanlige internationale setup, ved vi, hvor stor betydning afviklingen af DM, Agria DRF Mesterskabet og Bundgaard Byg Cup’en har for den danske dressurverden, fortæller arrangør Jens Trabjerg.
A-truppen og nye kombinationer dyster om medaljer
Udskydelsen af OL i Tokyo til 2021 har forlænget spændingen lidt ekstra og fået nogle nye kombinationer i spil, bl.a. det nye makkerskab mellem den tredobbelte Verdensmester, Fiontini og Andreas Helgstrand. Udover Andreas består deltagerlisten til DM for senior af den danske A-trup bestående af Cathrine Dufour, Carina Cassøe Krüth, Anna Kasprzak, Agnete Kirk Thinggaard, Marianne Yde Helgstrand og mange flere. Flere medbringer sågar flere heste, så der er i den grad lagt op til et brag af en kamp om guldet til dette års DM for senior, hvor den indledende runde afvikles om lørdagen og finalen om søndagen. Dertil gæster de dygtige para-ryttere Equitour fredag, lørdag og søndag.

Anne-Mette vil dyste mod landets allerbedste U25-ryttere, heriblandt sidste års vinder, Victoria E. Vallentin. Finaledagen for de unge ryttere vil ligge om lørdagen den 5. september under stævnet.
På samme måde er der også lagt op til spænding, når EM-sølvvinderen for hold, Alexander Yde Helgstrand rider med i Bundgaard Byg Cup’en på Grevens Sa’Va’ og dyster om podiepladserne sammen med de øvrige.
Dertil byder stævnet også på Prix St. George, Grand Prix Special og MA2, hvor spændende kombinationer kommer til start, eksempelvis Verdensmesteren Revolution og Andreas Helgstrand.
