German Dancer, Best 6-year-old ?
More
talented in movement, but not so flashy in his expression
was the Westfalian gelding German Dancer. Sold at the
Munster auction for little above 100,000 DM, German
Dancer became third in the 5-year-old class under Birgitte
Speyer at last year's championships. This year he moved
into reserve champion position under Iris Herkenroth.
While Herkenroth presented her German Dancer in a very
professional way, her length caused German Dancer to
look smaller and her gelding sometimes became tight
in the neck. Pity because the little bay, by Game Fox
xx, excels in his basic gaits with the walk as top movement.
9.0 was the final score. Regal Dancer, an Oldenburg
bred Rubinstein x Wenzel I stallion, was shown at last
year's World Championships for Young Dressage Horses
by Nicole Uphoff. With her departure from Vorwerk, Wilcox
was able to take over the reins of several Vorwerk horses,
including Regal Dancer. The bay stallion was able to
run the finals thanks to his victory in the consolation
class. In the actual final he scored 8.4 and received
the bronze medal.
