Friday evening with huge stallion show from Landgestüt Celle.
Both Vitalis sons Vaderland (ds Krack C) and Von und Zu (ds Floriscount) showed themselves with very nice qualities. Both with lovely expression and a supple uphill front. Vaderland with better canter than Von und Zu, but best walk of the day from Von und Zu. Also Blue Hors Veneziano son Venido looks like a quality stallion.
You have the possibility to catch up on the entire show at ClipMyHorse archive.
The FEI Dressage World Cup™ 2021/2022 qualifying season came to an exciting conclusion at Motesice in Slovakia last Sunday where Freestyle victory secured a place at next month’s Final for former champion, Helen Langehanenberg, while Moldova’s Alisa Glinka was confirmed winner of the Central European League.
Only top spot would be enough to help Langehanenberg make the cut to the 35th showdown of the series that dates all the way back to 1986. The German rider, who won the FEI Dressage World Cup™ title with the great Damon Hill back in 2013, was lying ninth on the Western European League leaderboard with 33 points going into yesterday’s last-chance competition.
Compatriot, Frederic Wandres, was holding third place on the league table with 52 points, so she needed the maximum 20 cross-over points from the Central European series to overtake him and to clinch that last of three qualifying slots on offer to German riders.
Having steered the 14-year-old mare Annabelle to a narrow victory over Poland’s Katarzyna Milczarek in the Short Grand Prix, Langehanenberg put more distance between them when posting 77.905 in Sunday’s Freestyle. She will now fly her country’s flag alongside defending champion Isabell Werth and reigning Olympic and European champion Jessica von Bredow-Werndl when the Final kicks off on their home turf in Leipzig (GER) in three weeks’ time.
Final standings
Saturday’s win in the last leg of the Western European League at ’s-Hertogenbosch in The Netherlands boosted von Bredow-Werndl to pole position in the final standings while success in Slovakia saw Langehanenberg rocket up to second place ahead of Denmark’s Cathrine Dufour in third.
A total of nine athletes can qualify from this league but only a maximum of three from any country, so Wandres, who finished fourth, has missed out by an agonising single point.
Sweden’s Patrik Kittel, Denmark’s Nanna Skodberg Merrald and Spain’s Juan Matute Guimon fill the next three placings ahead of French rider Morgan Barbançon and The Netherlands’ Thamar Zweistra who finished in equal-eighth place. As Wandres cannot compete, tenth-placed Briton, Charlotte Fry, has made the cut.
Just two slots are available to athletes from the Central European League which kicked off in Minsk (BLR) in April 2021 with victory for the eventual league winner, Glinka. The 35-year-old athlete then went on to win three more rounds of the 19-leg series, at Zhashkiv (UKR) and Kunkiai (LTU) in May 2021 and in Kharkiv (UKR) in June partnering her super-consistent horse Aachen, and the impressive pair also posted two runner-up finishes during the season.
Katarzyna Milczarek finished eight points behind on the final leaderboard but showed just how competitive she is when putting former champion, Langehanenberg, under plenty of pressure over the weekend. The veteran Polish athlete who, with Ekwador, represented her country at the London 2012 Olympic Games posted a win with Guapo at this season’s fifth qualifier in Samorin (SVK), and last weekend’s second-place result with the 11-year-old stallion bought her ticket to the 2022 Final.
Across the globe
Meanwhile across the globe Ashley Holzer and Anna Buffini claimed the two qualifying spots on offer in the North American League.
Former Canadian Olympian Holzer, who took up American citizenship five years ago, posted a double of wins in Ocala, Florida (USA) in October and December 2021 and added further points in Wellington, Florida (USA) in January and February this year with her 15-year-old mare Havanna to top the league standings.
Buffini’s FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final ride is also a 15-year-old mare, FRH Davinia la Douce. Victory and a personal-best score at the last of the eight qualifying legs in Wellington earlier this month sealed second place in the North American rankings and has confirmed a slot for the 27-year-old amongst the total of 18 world-class Dressage athletes who will battle it out for the coveted series title at Leipzig Exhibition Centre from 6 to 10 April 2022.
Germany’s golden girls - the Olympic and European champions Jessica von Bredow-Werndl and her 15-year-old mare TSF Dalera BB - were the undisputed winners of today’s sixth and last qualifying leg of the FEI Dressage World Cup™ 2021/2022 Western European League at ’s-Hertogenbosch in The Netherlands. Another outstanding performance from the pair who bagged two gold medals at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games last August and another three at the FEI European Championships the following month saw them awarded the winning score of 90.555 to leave the result beyond doubt when last to go.
The harmony between the dynamic duo was more palpable than ever today, the mare perhaps taking extra care of her dancing partner because this week the World No. 1 athlete announced that she is expecting her second baby to arrive in August. Last time out they also won on home ground at Neumünster despite a giddy moment from Dalera in extended canter. Today however the mare was the picture of calm and control. “I’ve never had this feeling with her before, it was like doing the test in there was the most normal thing in the world and it was so much fun to ride her!”, said von Bredow-Werndl who pinned defending series champion and compatriot Isabell Werth into runner-up spot ahead of Sweden’s Patrik Kittel in third.
Contrast
The busy atmosphere in the Brabanthallen at ’s-Hertogenbosch was in stark contrast to that experienced at many of the previous rounds of the series which were restricted due to pandemic regulations. The Dutch venue was buzzing so it was all-the-more pleasing for British veteran, Richard Davison, to find himself holding the lead with Bubblingh at the half-way stage.
The 17-year-old gelding is sometimes inclined to boil over due to tension, but today he really held it together to present a lovely steady picture during a pleasing Freestyle that clocked up a score of 77.205 that would prove plenty good enough for fifth place at the end of the day.
Kittel was the first to break the 80 percent barrier when fourth-last to go with the charming 10-year-old mare Forever Young HRH. He said this evening that he had no great expectations for her coming to the show “but she gave me the best feeling!”. With her big ears pricked and listening to his every prompt she seemed to grow through the test, showing lovely elevation and great power in passage before striding home to the strains of Billy Idol’s “Hot in the City”. When 82.500 went up on the board then his was the mark to beat, but Werth and DSP Quantaz posted 84.870 to dethrone the Swedish duo right away.
The German superstar is chasing her fourth consecutive FEI Dressage World Cup™ title and her sixth in total - her very first recorded exactly 30 years ago in Gothenburg, Sweden. She is very happy with the progress she is making with the 12-year-old stallion. “He felt very well today and it was a super test for him”, she said. When Great Britain’s Charlotte Fry and Dark Legend were awarded 82.325 then only von Bredow-Werndl could edge the reigning champion, and they succeeded with a masterclass in communication.
The Olympic and European champion might have expected a bigger score, but as she pointed out afterwards she doesn’t fret about that. “I decided a few years ago I don’t care too much about the score because I can’t influence it - the only thing I can influence is my riding and my performance and today Dalera was just incredible!”, she said.
"Technically I think it was the best Freestyle I’ve ever ridden, it felt so effortless and so smooth, there was not a single second when I was not 100% sure that we were going to make it!"
Jessica von Bredow-Werndl (GER)
Fully assured
So now she is fully assured of a place at the FEI Dressage World Cup™ 2022 Final next month. It’s no easy job being German and booking one of the three places on offer to your country because defending champion Werth is automatically entitled to one of them, so a sub-plot of fierce competition is playing out in the background as the rest of the super-talented German contingent try to make the cut.
Today’s result boosted von Bredow-Werndl to the top of the Western European League rankings so she has safely booked the second spot. However tomorrow will be a nervous day for Fredric Wandres who lies third in the rankings after a successful winter season.
Because Helen Langehanenberg, series champion with Damon Hill back in 2013, lines out at Motesice in Slovakia tomorrow and, should she win and collect those precious 20 qualifying points, then she will edge Wandres out of his chance of a tilt at the coveted title by just a single point. That’s all still to play out….

Highlights from Helgstrand / Schockemöhle stallion presentations
A marathon program for both Saturday and Sunday evening with online presentation of the Helgstrand / Schockemöhle stallion collection 2022.
It is for sure an impressive list of stallions from both Helgstrand and Schockemöhle, but said that the 2022 presentation becomes more like quantity instead of pure quality.
Theres just too many stallions shown at the same time and the combination with the jumping stallions does make the entire presentation a kind of less interesting for the dressage breeders, and must be the same feeling for the jumping breeders when waiting for their favourites to show up.
The collaboration Helgstrand & Schockemöhle
Helgstrand Dressage has for the last years been one of the absolute leading stallion stations with their continuously purchase of the Champion stallions, Reserve Champion stallions, Premium stallions and other high quality stallions. Common for the Helgstrand stallions are that they will show up as youngsters at Bundeschampionate, Young Horse Championships and of course with the best at World Championships for Young Horses. This is definitely interesting for the breeders.
For Schockemöhle stallions it has for many years been with a huge collection of stallion but with small hand full making their imprint in breeding and sport.
The young stallions 🤩 - pedigree - under saddle
When watching the young stallions as a breeder there are of course many perspectives, but the first impression must be 🤩, secondly the pedigree and third must be the basic gaits under saddle.
3 year old
From watching both days non of the young ones from Saturday caught H2R attention. Sunday more interesting young stallions were shown and one stallion stood out from all the other stallions KWPN Premium stallion Opoque by All at Once / Davino VOD. Already from the pre-selection this stallion was something very special and again at the KWPN licensing he showed that. And he did for not disappoint under saddle. Lots of power and mechanic for the trot, super nice walk and still some kind of unbalanced running canter.
Escanto PS by Escamillo / Fürstenball - a super attractive son of the young successful Escamillo with lovely balanced uphill frame in all 3 gaits. Without any comparison the most beautiful long front legs.
Vogue by Vitalis / Fidertanz look like an impressive big stallion, showing good balance and power in all three gaits - a real Helgstrand stallion.
4 year old
Total Diamond PS by Totilas / Sir Donnerhall is a really interesting Totilas son as he is clearly more big framed than we usually see the Totilas sons.
5 year old with first crop in 2021
Fürst Zonik PS by Fürstenball / Zonik is a really nice supple mover, good hindlegs and also looking strong from his pastern. Lovely natural balanced uphill closed frame. Definite one to keep an eye on.
My Vitality by Vivaldi / D-Day already proved himself winning both Danish Warmblood stallion performance test and 4 year old Danish national championship. My Vitality shows clearly a better canter and walk than his famous and very successful full brother Vitalis.
Remember you can watch the full presentation or just find your favourites at the archive at Clipmyhorse.
På vej mod Herning
Mens bilen helt sikkert er ved at blive pakket med de sidste ting inden afgang mod Herning, har H2R fanget Stutteri Springborg for at høre lidt om deres avler vej, som igen i år bringer dem til Unghestechampionatet i Herning.
Fra hygge avl til passion
Næsten al avl starter med hygge avl, og så tager det ofte om sig og bliver til passionen, hvor årets gang handler om svaberprøver, brunstkontrol, insemineringer, håndprøve og venten på de nye føl.
Det er en helt almindelig avler “cyklus”, som jo er uafhængig af om det sneer, regner eller solen skinner - når kalenderen siger nytår har de fleste avlere skabt sig et overblik med en “long-list” over potentielle hingste, som jo ofte bliver udvidet med spændende nytilkomne unghingste fra de forskellige kåringer, heriblandt selvfølgelig også de hingste som bliver fremstillet til Dansk Varmblods hingstekåringen i Herning.
Målsætning for Stutteri Springborg
Naturligvis er det altid taknemmeligt at udarbejde en målsætning, men hvordan holder tingene så stik, og skal der laves justeringer under vejs for at nå “i mål”?
For avlerparret Pernille og Per Springborg startede det hele tilbage i 1986 med hygge avl, som så i 1992 blev til starten på det nuværende Stutteri Springborg, hvor avlerparret lavede en målsætning, som de også arbejder efter i dag:
Stutteriets avlsmål er at avle ædle og elegante dressurheste med tre fremragende gangarter. Målet er at hestene skal klare sig godt i såvel avl som sport på højt niveau. Vores avl er baseret på valg af de bedste dressurhingste i verden til vores hopper.
Gennem de seneste 12 år, har Stutteri Springborg hvert år haft afkom med på Dansk Varmblods eliteskue enten som kåringshopper, 2-års eller føl.
Grundstenene
Det er kendetegner en stærk hoppestamme er bl.a. når hoppen formår, uanset valg af hingst, at levere kvalitetsafkom
“Gaia RDH e. Temple Wind xx blev en af grundhopperne for stutteriets avl og repræsenterer den G-linje, som der fortsat avles på. Avlshoppen Springborgs Givenchy e. Diamond Hit er en af de hopper, som for nuværende indgår i avlen hos os.
Givenchy er avlet på en super præstations stamme (Mikala Bagge- stammen), hvor flere afkom har gået sport på internationalt niveau. Afstamningen afspejler vel nok en af de stærkeste dressur stammer med Donnerhall og Rubinstein som grundstenen. Faderen Diamond Hit var nr. 2 ved det det tyske bundeschampionat i 2001.
Givenchy var udstillet i 2-års klassen ved Region I's følskue i 2006 og blev udtaget til eliteskuet, hvor hun fik bl.a. 9 i bevægelse. Givenchy blev 2007 kåret i RDH og blev udtaget til eliteskuet. Og i 2015 blev Givenchy udpeget til elite hoppe i Dansk Varmblod.
Givenchy har leveret en perlerække af vinderføl og medaljehopper med forskellige hingste som fædre. Alle hendes føl har været ærespræmieføl, og mange af dem har været bedste føl eller nr. 2. Tre af hendes føl har ligeledes været udtaget til elitefølauktion og er solgt der. Givenchy har ligeledes haft årets hingsteføl og årets 2-års hoppe i Dansk Varmblod.
I 2002 var vi på stutteribesøg i Tyskland og faldt for et hoppeføl efter Rubin Royal/De Niro. Springborgs Acacie blev hendes navn og hun blev den næste grundhoppe i stutteriets avlsprogram og repræsenterer A-linjen, som der fortsat også avles på. Acacie har bl.a. lavet guldmedaljehoppen Springborgs Acaia, som blev solgt som føl. Acacie har avlet to A-heste og B-heste. Acacie er solgt som 16 årig til nogle avlere, der ville starte op og venter nu sit 16. føl.
I 2016 fik vi muligheden for at erhverve en hoppen Esprit efter Jazz/Farrington. Esprit har vi fået fire dejlige hoppeføl efter. Den repræsenterer E-linjen på stutteriet. To af Esprits afkom blev fremstillet til hhv. hoppekåring og 2-års skue i 2021. 3-års hoppen Springborgs Envy blev kåret i RDH og 2-års hoppen blev fløjhoppe i region 1 og blandt de 5 bedste 2-års til eliteskuet”, fortæller Pernille og Per Springborg.
Stategien
Undervejs har der været forskellige hopper inde og blive vurderet i forhold til de ambitioner Stutteriet har og der har hele tiden været selekteret.
Det er vigtigt for os at vores avlshopper er kåret i den højeste klasse til kåringen og har bestået deres rideprøve med høje karakter. Vi holder øje med de internationale avlsaktiviteter og resultater fra konkurrencer for at få inspiration til at kombinere de forskellige blodlinjer.
Strategien på stutteriet er at avle 3-4 føl om året. De ældste hopper udskiftes og sælges til avlere som vil starte op med hoppelinier fra Stutteri Springborg, som jo allerede er velafprøvet i avlen.
Stutteri Springborg sælger som regel de føl, som de ikke ønsker at beholde, i relation til et generationsskifte i hoppestammerne.
I år ventes der 4 føl på Stutteri Springborg:
Springborgs Givenchy e. Diamond Hit/Heslegårds Rubin (venter nu sit 12. føl) termin ca. 6. marts med Dynamic Dream.
Springborgs Guinevere e. Bretton Woods/Fürst Romancier termin ca. 19. marts med BH Monte Carlo.
Springborgs Guinea e. Sir Donnehall I/Diamond Hit termin ca. 2. april med Valverde.
Springborgs Envy e. Floricount/Jazz termin ca. 13. april med So Perfect.
Efterspørgslen efter kvalitet
Hos Stutteri Springborg mærker man også den stigende efterspørgsel efter kvalitets avls-/ og rideheste, det udmøntede sig bl.a. i efteråret ved at Severo Jurado Lopez købte hoppeføllet Springborgs Amilla e. Glamourdale med unghestechampionats aktuelle Springborgs Abiza som mor.
I sporten
Til at varetage stutteriets sportslige ambitioner er det datteren Kathrine Springborg, som er i sadlen på pt. to af Stutteri Springborgs hopper, begge bronzemedaljehopper.
Sammen med Springborgs Guyana e. Fürst Romancier debuterede Kathrine i 2021 i Grand Prix, og parret vandt fornyligt deres første nationale Grand Prix sammen.
Fra medaljehoppe til unghestechampionatet
Endvidere står Kathrine for uddannelsen af bronzemedaljehoppen Springborgs Abiza e. Asgards Ibiza/Rubin Royal. Abiza er 5 år og havde i 2021 føl e. Glamourdale. Hun nåede lige akkurat at være klar til deltagelse i Dansk Rideforbunds dressurchampionat i 2021 og kom med i finalen. Til Dansk Varmblods egnethedstest placerede hun sig som nr. 2 og er nu udtaget til Unghestechampionatet i Herning i 2022.
Til Unghestechampionatet i Herning i år er der endnu en hest ud af en Springborg hoppestamme, som er kvalificeret til at deltage. Det er hesten Skovmosegaards Amarone e. Bon Coeur. Moderen er hoppen Springborgs Adele, som er efter e. Era Dancing Hit/Rubin Royal.
Så lige nu står den næste uge i Unghestechampionatets tegn, samtidig med der naturligvis også bliver tid til at fange op på alt mellem himmel og jord indenfor hesteverdenen, siger Pernille og Per Springborg.

+80% just around the corner
Glamourdale and Lottie Fry with Personal Best Grand Prix Special performance with 78,681% for their only 3rd Grand Prix Special ever. Actually this was only the 4th international big tour event for Glamourdale and Lottie.
The +80% is just around the corner and today with two smaller issues, for the extended walk tour where Glamourdale seems a bit focused about things outside the arena and the 2nd piaffe tour where he is loosing a bit forward trend, rest was pretty much spotless. Today scoring 4 x 10!
Beautiful controlled power combination, super frame and contact, just lovely to watch the qualities and harmony between the big stallion and his small rider.
Top placeringer:
Not really a “come-back” victory but anyway must be sort of relief for German Fabienne Müller-Lütkemeier with her very talented mare Valencia AS, as she lately in Neumünster had to retire as the communication between her and Valencia was more misunderstandings than clear communication during their 2nd day performance where Valencia seems only to catch the canter gear for each exercise.
Yesterday they were definitely back on track with a smooth, supple and obedient Grand Prix in Lier scoring 75,804%.
Here you find the entire results.
Stor dommeruenighed i toppen af dagens internationale Prix St. Georg
Karoline og den 12-årige sølvmedalje hoppe Aagaardens Lianne leverede en flydende og nydelig tur med god balance og generelt flot kvalitet. Eneste lille ting var starten af 4-er serien hvor parret laver en enkelt 3-er, resten var spot on og en sejr værdig. Desværre var den den belgiske dommer ved H meget uenig med sine kollegaer, og havde Karoline og Lianne på en 12. plads, mens de fire andre dommere havde hende som etter og toer.
Flot international debut og bestemt et spændende makkerpar som klær hinanden rigtig godt ,og som giver et naturligt og harmonisk billede.
28 dressage stallion for the licensing at Neustadt-Dosse. Tomorrow at 8.30 with free presentation and subsequent licensing decision.
Here you find the entire collection. The online auction runs until 8 March at 7.30 pm.

FEI removes all international equestrian events in Russia and Belarus
The FEI Executive Board met today to unanimously condemn the invasion of Ukraine by Russian military forces and agree on the ramifications to equestrian sport in Russia and Belarus.
In line with the IOC statement of 25 February 2022 urging International Sports Federations to relocate or cancel their sports events, the FEI Executive Board called on the FEI Secretary General to remove all international equestrian events in Russia and Belarus in the 2022 FEI Calendar in accordance with Articles 112.3 of the FEI General Regulations and 28.2 vi of the FEI Statutes.
In addition to removing all the Events from Russia and Belarus, the FEI Executive Board also unanimously agreed to freeze all FEI Solidarity and development activities and to cancel or relocate, where possible, FEI Courses for Officials scheduled to be held in Russia and Belarus in 2022.
The Executive Board requested that the FEI Board consider an Emergency Board Resolution addressing today’s recommendation by the International Olympic Committee Executive Board to prohibit the participation of all Russian and Belarusian Athletes and Officials. The FEI will continue to monitor the situation and decisions taken by the FEI Board will be communicated in the coming days.
During the meeting, the Executive Board also approved the allocation of a CHF 1 Million FEI Solidarity Relief Fund for the equestrian community in Ukraine. The FEI is liaising closely with the Ukrainian Federation and neighbouring countries to facilitate and coordinate logistical support as well as the financial aid.
FEI President and Chair of the FEI Solidarity Committee Ingmar De Vos (BEL) is currently in close contact with the National Federation of Ukraine and the equestrian community.
“We are deeply concerned for the welfare of all Ukrainians and the entire equestrian community in Ukraine,” the FEI President said. ”Their safety is very much our priority, and we are liaising closely with our key contacts in Ukraine and neighbouring countries to seek solutions to their most pressing needs.”
“Sport is a network which relies and thrives on team spirit and camaraderie and it is through these important friendships that we can offer support and make a difference to the people of Ukraine in these challenging times.”
Gør klar til næste uges hingstekåring i Herning
Bliv klar til Dansk Varmblods hingstekåring som starter allerede onsdag eftermiddag. Du har nemlig allerede nu mulighed for at studere afstamninger og sætte dig grundigt ind i tidsplanen, så du er sikker på at få det hele med.
I kataloget findes selvfølgelig også de tilmeldte ungheste til unghestechampionatet og hingste som er tilmeldt showklasser.
Husk du kan løbende følge den præcise tidsplan her.
The next Oldenburg Stallion Days will be held from 12 to 14 January 2023. By moving the licensing date, the individual development of the stallions and the idea of animal welfare will be taken more into account. Since the young stallions have to be at least 30 months old at the time of the licensing, according to the Guidelines for Animal Welfare in Equestrian Sport, and since the foaling season has moved further and further into May and June in the past years, the January date significantly increases the lot of potential licensing candidates. Without this change, many promising young stallions would not get the chance to present themselves at the Oldenburg main licensing.
The pre-selection of the dressage and jumping stallions is planned for the end of November 2022. The stallions of the licensing will be presented in hand as before.
