Siena and Stockholm surfaced at the top at the Baden Wurttemberger selection trial in Böblingen, Germany, 13 - 15 May 2011. Organized by Dieter Zimmermann, the Böblingen qualifier only produced two horses that were able to score higher than 8.0 and qualify for the Finals in Warendorf, held the first week of September 2011.
Dr. Susann Konrad saddled the Oldenburg mare Siena (by Sandro Hit x Lorentin) for the 5-year old dressage test and scored 8.10 to go home with the trophy. She pushed Patrick Thompson on the dark bay Marback state stud stallion Little Charly (by Lord Loxley x Florestan) to a second place with 7.7. German based Canadian Christilot Boylen ranked third aboard the Hanoverian mare Florencia (by Florencio x Weltmeyer) on 7.5.
In the 6-year old division it was Dorothee Schneider who wielded the axe of power. She placed first with the Bavarian stallion Stockholm (by Stedinger x Silvio I) on 8.3 and second with the Oldenburg gelding Del Primo (by Don Primero x Figaro) with 7.7. Friedrich Steisslinger slotted in third aboard his Hanoverian mare Havanna Negra (by Hohenstein x Wolkenstein II) with 7.60. Boylen's Canadian student Belinda Trussell was less fortunate. She retired from her ride on Robyn Eames' Hanoverian bred Biasini (by Belissimo M x Davignon I) in that test
