Warm up anno 1987: Margit Otto-Crépin and her Hanoverian hopeful Maritim before their start in the small tour.

The brown Hanoverian gelding Maritim (by Matrose) had been the top priced Verden auction horse in 1981. Although he never achievef the same brilliance like his predecessor Corlandus, he became Margit Otto-Crépin’s 1992 Olympic horse.

The individual podium: Princess Anne presents silver to Ann-Kathrin Linsenhoff, Gold for Margit Otto-Crépin and supposedly bronze for Christine Stückelberger.

Lausanne was the place where the late Margit Otto-Crépin truly rode into the limelight and impressed everyone with her elegance and refined style of riding.
Caprici, a 14-year-old Selle Francais gelding, was a former top event horse and came a very good 10th in the Grand Prix
