January 6, 2002

Von Platen and MoccaGerman Stallion Station Sprehe has attrackted a new rider to reinforce their dressage team since the departure of Sandra Kotter. 21-year old young rider Julia Katharina von Platen will be training the dressage horses together with Holga Finken.

Von Platen, who already runs her own dressage stable, dressage stable Platenhof, with her mother Ute von Platen, stands proof that German equestrian centres are interested in young riders for their training team. Julia Katharina von Platen is, however, not just one amongst hundreds. Member of the German Junior and young riders team since 1999, Von Platen has a large collection of upper level horses including Welfenprinz, Mocca, Foxtrott and Kira K, all horses first trained by her mother.

Awarded with the Stensbeck Plaque, Von Platen will be training licensing champions Ron William and K2 at Sprehe in Löningen-Benstrup, Germany. Von Platen is also often used by German pony breeders to show their ponies at the German Bundeschampionate in Warendorf. Von Platen was guest judge rider as well for the the 3-year old riding horse class at the 2000 Bundeschampionate.
