Second day at the horse festival in Immenhöfe. Top jumping was again on Friday’s program.
Two international CSI 2* competitions are scheduled. The first was qualification for evening group jumping under floodlights, which went to Richard Vogel in Chinos from RV Mannheim.
Some countries are represented in the traditional tournament
However, first, the young horses of six and seven years old again overcame the obstacles. Traders were not disappointed on Friday morning. Believe it or not, 80 pairs of riders entered the starter list for the two CSI2* races this Friday.
It was an international starting field. Riders from Switzerland, Monaco, United Arab Emirates, England, Austria, Denmark, Ireland and Kuwait participated.
Kim-Caroline Muller faces tough competition
Kim-Caroline Müller from RSG Ridweiss Fischbach dealt with a strong field with her Darko for Fun and was only one down. However, this would mean a 57th rank in such a competition.
Then the Baden-Württemberg front runners saddled up for their warm-up test. They were able to show their horses the conditions on the course for Saturday’s BW-Bank competition, which is also a qualifier for the indoor championships as part of the German Matters at the Schleier Halle in Stuttgart.
This is about the Danube Cup
Then the parquet was prepared again for the regional riders. The top 15 from the qualifiers on the first day of the tournament went on to a two-stage L-jumping for victory in the Danube Cup.
15 qualified and only two of them made it to the second stage, with Sandra Krause from the host club RZ Fresz the only one to ride Con Cara and score a single zero in the second stage. This follows their win on Thursday.
