Rhineland based dressage rider and trainer Dieter Laugks has signed a contract with Toni Meggle to train and compete the Meggle horses in the future. Meggle's Werthers Wels, a 15-year old Hanoverian by Werther x Waldhorn, has been with Laugks since October 2005
. Meggle's Black Jack, a 10-year old Hanoverian by Breitling x Vollkorn, is stabled at Laugks' in Dusseldorf since January 2006.
Laugks, who is a lawyer by profession, is the 2002 German Reserve dressage champion and multiple Rhinelander regional champion. He signed a sponsor deal with Meggle which will involve the training of the Meggle show horses. He will need to commute between Dusseldorf and Wasserburg for it.
Laugks is one rider/trainer in a series of many that have worked for Meggle. Markus Gribbe, Christoph Koschel, Fritz Gaulhofer and Stefan Peter have all been previous riders at the Meggle stables.
