“Simply beautiful” – Pferdefestival Redefin begins

(Redefin) A Dane was the first winner on the course, the dressage rider with the longest journey is impressed by the State Stud Redefin and dog agility has recaptured the Festival – in short: Redefin’s international show seamlessly continues its familiar quality and attraction. The delight of the first spectators to enjoy the sport and the meeting with like-minded people is unmistakable.

The Danish Nations Cup rider Lars Bak Andersen was the first winner of the day with the Hanoverian mare Nola in the advanced (S) level jumping competition. In second place was already the best Mecklenburg starter – Philipp Makowei with the Mecklenburg gelding Quester. Always in the focus of spectators and fellow riders is European Champion Andé Thieme from Plau am See, who has brought his young horse Paule S, as well as the gelding Conacco for the big competitions and the Derby horse Contadur. For Contadur, Redefin is the “dress rehearsal” before the German Jumping Derby in Hamburg.

International Dressage makes an impression

And while international jumping is taking place in front of the portal of the riding house in Redefin in familiar form and format, dressage is definitely experiencing a premiere with the internationalisation and the “move” to the Paradestadion.

Among the 55 participants from 14 nations at the CDI is also Mary Hanna, the competitor with the longest journey, who has competed six times for Australia at the Olympic Games. For the dressage rider, who has already competed all over the world, the Pferdefestival Redefin has already proved to be a good decision: “Everything is easy for us here: the stables are close to the arenas, the competition area is good and the whole infrastructure is very very horse-friendly,” emphasised the Australian, who has been in Europe since the end of March and whose goal is the World Championships in Herning, Denmark, in August. Redefin’s Show Director Francois Kasselmann met Hanna in Australia in March and suggested that she compete in Redefin.

Juliane Brunkhorst (Ganderkesee) is very familiar with the Pferdefestival Redefin. The trainer has known the show for many years and won the international Grand Prix de Dressage with the Holstein gelding Aperol in the Prize of the Aachen Dressur Verein e.V. ahead of Nicole Wego-Engelmeyer (Hagen a.T.W.) with the Oldenburg stallion Budhi. This means that Brunkhorst is also one of the favourites for the Grand Prix Freestyle, presented by FUNDIS Reitsport on Sunday at the Redefin Horse Festival. By the way: Admission is free on the entire grounds – both for the jumping and dressage stadium.
