Preis der Besten Warendorf,
Germany
19th - 21st May 2001
Preis der Besten, Dress Rehearsal for the European
Championships
Show
organizer Christoph Hess had nothing to complain about
after his successful youth rider competition "Preis
der Besten" at the German federal equestrian center
in Warendorf, Germany. The Foot and Mouth crisis left
no traces as the best best young riders from whole Germany
travelled to the Westphalian province to compete in
one of the most prestigious German youth competitions.
German junior and young rider chef d'equipe Holger
Schmezer was very pleased with the performances of his
riders. "In the junior rider division we had a
whole new group of top level riders who are hopefuls
for the European Championship team. The decision is
still to be made and it will be hard to select the five
best junior riders," Schmezer said. The Young Riders
were in top condition and the usual team proved that
once by producing high scores. "There are three
new combinations that struck my attention as they were
able to match up with the score of the team riders,"
Schmezer uttered. In the Pony division three former
Championship riders were able to rank in the top again
and with a broad pack in the middle, the German pony
team should not fear the future.
