TSF Dalera unbeatable again
It seems as if these two are currently unbeatable: TSF Dalera and Jessica von Bredow-Werndl. In their home Grand Prix Special at "Pferd International" in Munich, the two were once again able to take the lead in the top-class field.
Once again the pair from Aubenhausen proved that they should be kept in mind regarding medal places in Tokyo. The Trakehner mare received 81.609 percent, just short of her previous best score. All judges in Munich agreed: The pair has to be ranked first!
But the real stars of the day were Dorothee Schneider and her Showtime FRH. Not only is Showtime fresher than ever after more than 20 months of competition, but Schneider's comeback was also moving.
The lady from Framersheim broke her collarbone at the Pforzheim show after her mare Rock n' Rose collapsed dead.
"This horse is just brilliant and he took such great care of me," Schneider announced after her ride.
Currently, the champion rider is still riding with a special brace to support her collarbone. In the test, she protects herself with tape.
"We still had mistakes, but I just enjoyed this ride. He is just a dream. It's very rare to have a horse like this. That's why I didn't show him last year. I thought: if there are Olympic Games again this year, then I have the great Showi again, to maybe be able to qualify in this direction," explained the 2012 Olympic participant.
Isabell Werth was also able to pilot her youngster DSP Quantanz to third place. Occasionally one could still see his youthful recklessness, but the horse's potential for the top class can already be seen.
