A huge field of competitors showed up at the Bundeschampionate qualifier in Hannover to strive for a berth at the 2009 Bundeschampionate Finals in Warendorf. Only two 5-year olds and one 6-year old made the cut, however.
Former European Young Rider champion Christin Schutte won the 5-year old dressage horse class aboard her chesnut Hanoverian stallion Eloy (by Earl x Wendenburg). She scored a solid 8.20 overall and even got a 9 for throughness and lightness in the bridle. Mira von Daake became the runner up with her bay Hanoverian mare Herzdame B (by His Highness x A Jungle Prince) with 8.0.
In the 6-year old division Imperio, the silver medallist of the 2008 World Young Horse Championships, reigned supreme under Anna Sophie Fiebelkorn. The bay Trakehner licensed stallion by Connery x Balfour xx scored 8.2 in total but got a 9 for trot and 8.5 for canter. The walk was less and judges scored it 7.5. Vera Nass and the Hanoverian gelding Dio Mio (by De Niro x Charmeur) finished second with 7.5.
