Region 6 med traditionsrig følaften

Stor opbakning fra avlerne

Forsommeren er lig med føl og derfor havde Dansk Varmblod´s region 6 igen i år inviteret avlerne til følaften hos Lena og Ulrik Kristensen i Vinderup.

På den solrige tirsdag aften havde rigtig mange avlere fundet vejen til Vinderup, uden at have nøjagtig tal på de fremmødte lignede det 50-60 personer, som efter at have hilst på hinanden i stalden, drukket en kop kaffe og udvekslet den sidste status på reproduktionssæsonen, var klar til at tage plads på langsiden i ridehuset.

Her var H2R sammen med Dansk Varmblods direktør Casper Cassøe Krüth inviteret til at fortælle om hhv. H2R og hvad rytterne efterspørger H2R ano 2023, mens Casper skulle informere om bl.a. status på Dansk Varmblod.

H2R lagde ud og fortalte lidt om baggrunden for opstarten af H2R for nu 15 år siden, herunder selvfølgelig med fuld fokus på dækning af international avl og sport. H2R begrebet “3 x T” blev introduceret overfor avlerne. Der findes desværre ikke nogen præcis formel på at avle den perfekte ridehest, men “3 x T” bør avleren altid have for øje, nemlig Temperament, Tre gangarter og Typen, i jagten på at avle føl som er salgbare og attraktive for rytterne at uddanne. Samtidig var der også opfordring til avlerne om at benytte sig af alle de online muligheder som er kommet til gennem det seneste årti, alt fra følskuer, kåringer, linære avlsindeks og auktioner.

Casper fortalte om status på DV, herunder den nye avlsledelse, de kommende følauktioner, hoppekåringer og følskuer. Herunder kom Casper bl.a. med et opråb, da man i auktionsudvalget havde set rigtig mange gode og ordentlige føl, men det desværre også havde været mere end en håndfuld, hvor man desværre ikke havde været påpasselige i forhold til at de var efterset og tilrettet i tide på deres hove.

Herefter var der føl fremvisning, som bestod af en samling af Lena og Ulrik Kristensen egne føl samt et par føl fra andre avlere. En rigtig fin samling og er bredt udsnit af hvad 2023 årgangen byder på. Her fik både H2R og Casper mulighed for at komme med umiddelbare kommentarer og indtryk af hver enkelt føl. Under vejs var der også lidt spørgsmål og kommentarer fra avlerne på sidelinien.

Efter følfremvisningen var Holstebro Hestepraksis vært omkring grillen, med pølser, øl, vand, kaffe og kage.

Hatten af for de entusiastiske avlere som år efter år tager imod en ny årgang. Det kræver meget mere end bare at vælge hingst og så vente på resultatet - TAK FOR EN GOD AFTEN i det jyske.

Grand Prix Special, U25 Grand Prix and Nürnberger Burg-Pokal qualifier today in Balve

Would Fendi and Sönke be able to beat Dalera and Jessica again today?

A this level there is often no room for errors and this was also the fact today between gold and silver.

It might have been a big surprice with yesterday´s Grand Prix victory for Sönke Rothenberger with his 9 year old Danish Warmblood Fendi T by Franklin/Diamond, but it definitely brought them in favorite position for today´s gold medal. Until the one times at the diagonal they were showing a performance for a gold medal, but unfortunately two big errors for the diagonal and again for the one time at the centerline just made the difference between gold and silver today.

A bit incomprehensible that judge at C today Mrs Evi Eistenhardt saw Sönke and Fendi at 6th position! the rest of the judging team saw them at 2nd position.

H2R comments during their tests about top 3:

The German “next generation” is ready

Sönke Rothenberger and Fendi T are representing the next generation of the German team and together with his sister Semmieke with Flanell, Katharina Hemmer with Denoix and Bianca Nowag-Aulenbrock with Florine OLD. They will for sure push the “old ladies” when it comes to Olympics 2024.

U25 - Semmieke

Rothenberger clearly in front also at U25 today. Super test from Semmieke without any technical issues and highlights for piaffe and passage tours. Well deserved Champion.

Nürnberger Burg-Pokal

Germany´s most prestigious young horse tour is the Nürnberger Burg-Pokal series. This year with 8 events for the qualification with 4 extra spots with combinations placed 2nd with highest procentage.

Today Dorothee Schneider with Escalito in front with a ticket for the final, but 2nd placed was Florine Kienbaum with 9 year old trakehner gelding Nautilus by Connery / Latimer with a super score of 74,756%, temporary best 2nd place score which brings them to the finals.



Germany rallies for short-handed victory in Budapest

Germany entered the FEI Dressage Nations Cup™ of Hungary with a bit of added pressure. Prepared to start with a full team of riders, the squad was left short-handed following the late scratch of Lisa-Maria Klössinger.

But no drop score would be needed, as Team Germany, with just three riders, recorded a comfortable victory under the tutelage of Chef d'Equipe Götz Brinkmann. The trio of Rudolf Widmann (Ferrari OLD), Franziska Stieglmair (Samurai 504) and Lisa Müller (Gut Wettlkam's D'avie FRH) finished on a total score of 416.873%, more than 10 points ahead of runners-up, Hungary (405.301%). 

"There was a lot of pressure. Of course you can make mistakes, but if that happens [with three riders], you're out of the running...I was pretty proud of all of them, that they were able to handle that pressure and solve all the problems."

Chef d'Equipe Götz Brinkmann (GER)

Stieglmaier and Müller were the only riders to score above 70 percent across the Grand Prix and Grand Prix Special, with Stieglmaier firmly asserting a German victory with an individual win in the Special aboard her longtime mount, Samurai 504. She and the 12-year-old Hanoverian gelding received a winning score of 71.234%—a personal best for the pair.

"It's a really special partnership. I bought him as a 2-year-old. When he was young, he was a little scared of everything, but now he's my partner in crime. If I don't make a mistake, he also won't."

Franziska Spieglmaier (GER)

Anchor pair Müller and Gut Wettlkam's D'avie FRH set the team ahead from the onset, winning the Grand Prix (72.543%) and finishing second in the Special (70.000%). Collectively, the squad did not finish worse than seventh in a single test.

"It was really fun to ride with our team," Spieglmaier said. "There was really good team spirit, and we helped each other really well. This win is very good for all of us."

Germany maintains its lead in the 2023 FEI Dressage Nations Cup™ series standings. Sweden sits second, followed by Denmark.

"We have many strong riders [in Germany]. It's not only riding in a foreign country and riding for Germany, but many others also could have ridden, and [German National Coach Monica Theodorescu] chose us," Brinkmann said. "That makes us really, really happy."

Full results

Sensational Sönke with 9 year old Danish Warmblood Fendi T

Unbeatable Dalera and Jessica beaten by Fendi and Sönke today

A very interesting field for today´s Grand Prix at the German national Championships. It is this time of the year where things are starting to get very interesting when a big international Championship comes up later. How strong are the strong nations? Often it is pretty well reflected by the national championships, but like always the scoreboard for the German Championships is also this year well heated.

Today was the day where TSF Dalera BB with Jessica von Bredow-Werndl had to handle over the baton in terms of being undefeated since the Tokyo Olympics in July 2021. Maybe kind of a surprice that the young Fendi T and Sönke Rothenberger were the ones to stop the winning streak - but they were definitely in for the job today. Well deserved and also from a side line perspective it was with a bigger gab than reflected by the scoreboard.

Bluetooth and Wandres has really improved their relationship. Bluetooth has been come a happy athlete together with Wandres and also showed a strong performance today without any technical issues.

“Conservative” performances with more errors

Very unexpected Dalera and Jessica had some major “problems” today, Werth and Quantaz did their stuff but somewhat with the hand break applied, like also Duke of Britain and Wandres were kind of not as sharp as usual, still with highlight of their piaffe tours.

Here below the post at Facebook from Jessica von Bredow-Werndl about today:

The young ladies

Placed 9, 10 and 11 were three very talented young ladies. They look like the next generation for the German team.

Bianca Nowag-Aulenbrock with Florine OLD - very accurate test without any technical issues, missing bit more strength for extensions and piaffe tours, lovely contact and uphill frame all the way.

Denoix and Katharina Hemmer - no weaknesses, lovely supple overall picture today only an error for the 1 times. Definitely worth a better placement (like judge at M, Plewa for a 6th place).

Flanell and Semmieke Rothenberger - such a harmonious overall picture. Best zigzag of the day and super flying changes. Today´s needed a bit more polished for entering halt, halt with rein back and transition to trot after canter.

World Championship back in Verden!

FEI Dressage World Breeding Championship for

Young Horses from 2025 to 2027


Verden. The FEI has decided: From 2025 to 2027 the FEI Dressage World Breeding Championship for Young Horses will take place in Verden again. At the beginning of August, the world's best dressage talents will compete for the world championship titles at the show grounds on Lindhooper Straße. 

This means that the World Championships are returning to their "birthplace". In 1997, the pilot project took place in Verden as part of the European Dressage Championships. In the meantime, they have been the starting point of quite a few international careers. "We are very much looking forward to this great event, which will find optimal conditions on our show grounds," say the show management Wilken Treu and Ulrike Kubelke from pVerd-event GmbH. The two-year preparation period is already beginning and the anticipation is great. In the past years, the numerous expert spectators from all over the world made the title competitions for five- to seven-year-olds a real highlight.

The last time the FEI Dressage World Breeding Championship for Young Horses took place in Verden was in 2021. At that time, with a limited number of spectators, the newly built show grounds at the racecourse also shone at its international debut. Before 2025, the World Championships will be held twice more in Ermelo/NED.

Stutteri Pilekær er igen klar med top føl til auktion

Til den kommende DV auktion på Blue Hors 24. juni er hingsteføllet Vicarious Pilekær e. Vitalis / Goldfinger udtaget - foto: H2R

Gennem de seneste år har det sønderjyske Stutteri Pilekær været “fast inventar” på de danske auktioner, med føl af høj kvalitet og spændende afstamning.

Igen i år er de klar til årets første følauktion på Blue Hors som afholdes i samarbejde med Dansk Varmblod. Denne gang har Lars og Anne Mette fået udtaget to hingsteføl til auktionen på Blue Hors, Vicarious Pilekær e. Vitalis / Goldfinger og Baroq Pilekær e. Blue Hors Baron / Danone II.

Baroq Pilekær e. Blue Hors Baron / Danone II - foto: privat

Årgang 2023 og årgang 2024

En formiddag i slutningen af maj måned havde H2R lagt turen forbi Stutteri Pilekær. Årets samling af føl var velankommet, dog med undtagelse af et enkelt føl som desværre ikke klarede skærene.

Hopper og føl er altid på stald om natten hos Stutteri Pilekær, og på den kolde og regnfulde morgen var det planlagt, at de skulle blive inde indtil opklaring i vejret op af formiddagen.

Kvalitetsføl

Alle føl er håndteret og super tillidsfulde da de en efter en bliver vist i ridehuset. Fælles for alle hopperne er også at de alle ser super godt ud.

Årets kollektion tæller føl føl efter hingstene Dream Boy, Fürstenball, Johnson, Secret, Blue Hors Baron og Vitalis. Et smukt og ædelt og helt ungt hoppeføl e. Jameson RS2 er tiltænkt rollen som kommende avlshoppe på stutteriet, idet moderen nu med 20 år er klar til at gå på velfortjent pension.

Alle føl bliver solgt

Når man som Anne Mette og Lars har været med i gamet i snart 25 år, er der naturligvis høstet lærerige erfaringer under vejs. Løbende er hoppesamlingen blevet justeret og tilpasset.

Helt konkret betyder det at parret altid har haft det mål at kunne sælge alle deres føl hvert år. Så svaret på spørgsmålet fra H2R: “Hvor mange har du så gående ude på marken?” kommer promte fra Lars, INGEN!

Men hvordan kan man så år efter år sælge alle føl?

Det er jo ikke alle føl der kommer på auktion fra Stutteri Pilekær, der er også føl som bliver solgt på staldgangen til ryttere eller avlere, men det handler meget om at være realistiske. “Det er jo ikke alle føl som er auktionsføl, og selvom man har fået et føl udtaget til en auktion, så det er ofte hvordan dagsformen er, og hvordan føllet får vist sig når det går løs. Vi kender selvfølgelig basiskvaliteten her hjemmefra, men det kan vi jo ikke rigtig bruge til noget, når det handler om de få minutter som føllet skal “sælge sig selv” i auktionsarenaen,” fortæller Lars.

Årgang 2024

Reproduktionen er allerede godt i gang, og da H2R var forbi manglede der kun ifoling af 4 hopper, da årgang 2024 gerne skulle være med 12 føl i stalden.

Blue Hors Zepter og Nanna Merrald Danmarksmester 2023

Carina Cassøe Krüth 🥈- Nanna Merrald 🥇- Andreas Helgstrand 🥉

Flot kür finale

Detaljerne skiller guld og sølv til årets DM, hvor Nanna bevarer forspringet fra lørdagens Grand Prix og sikre sig karrierens første DM guld sammen med Blue Hors Zepter. Kun en lille bagbensfejl i den første etter serie som Nanna senere får rettet via sin jokerline. Det overordnede billede er HARMONI.

Sølvvinder Carina og Danse viser deres bedste i dagens kürfinale, hvor gårsdagens lidt svage piaffe ture var meget bedre på plads, uagtet det ikke er parrets favorit øvelse. Fantastisk power hele vejen, med kun en lille øvelsesfejl i den frie galop. Fantastisk flow og go hele vejen.

Andreas beholder 3. pladsen, dog med en mere forceret tur i dag, hvor piaffe turene ikke fungere ligeså godt som i Grand Prix klassen. Desværre ser dommer ved B, Lone Dichmann turen i et noget højere niveau end kollegaerne og har rent faktisk ekvipagen som vindere.

Lige nedenfor podiet finder man Anna Kasprzak med Addict de Massa med flot ny kür, hvor man bliver helt forpustet af bare at følge med. Øvelserne kommer som perler på en snor i en super svær kombination.

De “nye”

Blandt de nye i DM finalen finder man placeret som nr. 8 Anne Sofie Aaen med Fürsten-Flame, efterfulgt af Anne Marie Hosbond med Scarlett som nr 9 og Andreas Larsen med Lillesø´s Sezoo som nr. 10 - alle tre debutanter og finaledetagere.

Se resultaterne her.

VIDEOER - Imponerende top på førstedagen til DM

De flotte præstationer på banen overskyggede den matte stemning på lægterne

Uggerhalne er helt sikkert verdens navle for dem der har deres daglige gang i området. For nærmest alle andre er det mere eller mindre en dagsrejse, og det faktum gjorde sig igen gældende i gårsdagens Grand Prix. Et kig på tilskuerpladserne vidende om, at ikke ret mange havde valgt at lægge vejen forbi, for at se nogle af verdens bedste ekvipager. Umiddelbart var lokationen desværre heller ikke rigtig tiltrukket af forretninger som kunne byde hestefolket på tilbud af den ene eller anden slags, men derimod lignede det at VIP konceptet fungerer særdeles godt og var velbesøgt.

Guld og sølv bliver mellem Nanna og Carina

Et DM som papiret inden start kunne blive en kamp om guldet mellem Zepter & Nanna og Danse og Carina, og sådan gik det også efter førstedagens Grand Prix klasse.

Begge ekvipager var skarpe til dagen, hvor det set fra sidelinien var med fordel til Zepter & Nanna, som det også gav sig udtryk i pointgivningen. Harmoni og balance med høj kvalitet i piaffeturene hos Zepter & Nanna, hvor Danse & Carina viser en tur med fuld power hele vejen, et par små ubalancerede momenter, men også uden tekniske fejl. Begge ekvipager bringer virkelig deres internationale top niveau med til DM.

Andreas Helgstrand viser med både Queenparks Wendy og Jovian bedre ture end set tidligere. Med Wendy er sidebilledet og balancen i piaffe og passage turene forbedret. Det er tydeligt at Andreas igår ikke forlangte mere end den den unge hoppe magter pt. Jovian er imponerende, og igår shinede den store hingst også ved ikke at blive redet helt ud af gearene men kun til kanten, det giver tydeligt mere luft til at vise mere rigtig passage og bedre balance i piaffeturene. Galoppirouetterne mangler stadig lidt mere kontrol og naturlig balance, men highlight i øgninger og traversader er imponerende.

De tre ligner bestemt også dagens podie, men som altid handler det om at kunne ride fejlfrit - og lykkedes det er ALT åbent i forhold til guld og sølv.

Udviklingen

Lige under toppen i gårsdagens Grand Prix finder man igen Nanna, denne gang med Blue Hors Don Olymbrio. Timingen er optimal og en flot præstation.

Anna Zibrandtsen og Quel Filou har gennemgået en flot udvikling. Sammen laver de et smukt sidebillede, og nu begynder vinklerne bare at være meget mere rigtige, i takt med at det ligner Quel Filou finder bedre og bedre ind under det rigtige balancepunkt både i passage men også i piaffe turene. Der er stadig plads til forbedringer.

Lige udenfor placeringerne finder man bl.a. Lone Bang med Rostov og Anna Kasprzak med sine to heste Addict de Massa og Rock Star. Fælles for alle 3 heste er at de præsterer solidt uden tekniske fejl og går op til deres bedste på dagen.

Favour Gersdorf og Nadja Aabo Sloth red også en solid tur, men igår manglede der lidt højdepunter under vejs til at bringe dem længere frem på resultatlisten.

Anne Marie Hosbond og Scarlett rider i deres første Grand Prix sæson sig til en plads i DM finalen med et godt ridt, hvor piaffe turene fungerede godt på dagen, og hvor deres stadig er luft til forbedringer, som jo helt sikkert kommer sammen med mere rutine.

De to ekvipager Michala Damm-Frydenberg med Laissez-Faire E og Karoline Louise Skøt med Midtgaards Zamir har begge været ude at snuse til den internationale scene i sæsonen og er også begge klar til dagens kür finale. DM debutant Lillesø´s Sezoo med Andreas Larsen er også klar til finalen med gårsdagens DM debut.
