Holsteiners from all over the world once again secured placings in international competitions:
Chaka Chaka by Casall-Contender (Daniel Lehmann, Seengen), line 104A, and Janne Friederike Meyer-Zimmermann (GER) finished second over 1.45 metres in the Peelbergen Grand Prix. In addition, Monaco by Cassini II-Contender (Ralf Lütje, Haseldorf), line 429, and Harrie Smolders (NED) finished fifth in this class.
Quintair by Quintero-Con Air (Torsten Gripp), line 8803, and Abdurakhmon Abdullaev (UZB) finished fourth in a 1.50-metre show jumping class in Riga (LAT). The dark bay began his competitive career in Germany under Katharina Offel and has achieved success up to 1.60 metres, including a placing in the four-star Grand Prix in Poznan (POL).
Angelos Touloupis (GRE) can rely on his Lord Mexx: the son of Larimar-Coriano (Hans Bock, Quickborn), line 1811, once again completed a clear round in a 1.50-metre show jumping competition and secured fourth place. It was only in June that the pair won a Grand Prix in Budapest.
Tiara Bleicher (GER), aged just 17, rode Zayado by Cayado-Casall (Christin Bendfeldt), line 8783, to victory in a difficult 1.40-metre show jumping class. The pair competed in Samorin (SVK).
Eventing
In the three-star eventing competition in Schwaiganger (GER), a Holsteiner named Cascor by Helenenhof’s Catoo-Stauffenberg (Carsten Schultz), line 18A2, took the bronze medal. Ridden by Cecilia Lundberg from Norway, he galloped effortlessly through the three-star short course.
