The 5-year old Westfalian licensed stallion Arcachon has moved from Johann Hinnemann's stable to Dorothee Schneider's yard for further training.
Arcachon is a 2015 born and Dutch bred stallion by Apache x Hotline x Sunny Boy. He is owned by Bernd and Claudia Heicke.
The bay became the reserve champion of the 2017 Westfalian Stallion Licensing and moved into training with Stefanie Wolf at Johann Hinnemann's Krusterhof in Voerde, Germany. Under Wolf, the stallion won bronze at the 2019 Bundeschampionate in Warendorf.
The Heicke family recently decided to move their stallion from Hinnemann so that Dorothee Schneider can continue his development. The Heicke family are long-time collaborators with Schneider, who also rides their Grand Prix horse Fohlenhof Rock 'n Rose.
The ride on the stallion is now allocated to Dorothee's assistant Hannah Milena Rother, who presented him at the 2020 Stallion Sport Test in Verden last weekend. Arcachon scored 7,82 points (7.5 for wwalk, 8.2 for trot, 8 for canter, and 7.7 for rideability and general impression).
"This beautiful son by Apache is not yet long in our stalion, so the happier I am with Hannah and this talented bay," Dorothee took to Instagram. "Of course I drove to Verden to support them and am now looking forward to the further development of this heart breaker."
