Isabell Werth to Madeleine Winter-Schulze
German
dressage icon Isabell Werth has suddenly decided to
leave her steady trainer Dr Uwe Schulten-Baumer and
move to the stables of Madeleine Winter-Schulze in Wedemark,
Germany. In two weeks, Werth is moving four of her horses
to her new training home. The dressage diva announced
this news at the CDI Hannover, Germany.
Dr
Schulten-Baumer will, however, continue to train Werth
and cover the distance between Rheinberg and Wedemark
regulary. How often has not been decided upon. Werth
is taking the 6-year old Satchmo and the 7-year old
Richard Kimble to Winter Schulze. She will also continue
riding the 16-year old Hanoverian Anthony FRH with whom
she won the European golden team medal this year in
Verden.
Werth
has also quit her job as a lawyer as it became impossible
to combine a competition career with law. Werth will
keep up being a freelance photo model for Karstadt AG
It
is said that problems between Werth and Dr Uwe Schulten-Baumer's
daughter, Ellen, have stirred the arguments even more
between trainer and rider. A few months ago, Ellen took
over the training of the talented horses Aleppo and
Agnelli from Isabell Werth.
