Jill de Ridder abaord FBW Disco Boy.
De Ridder won the test at the selection trial. She is no new junior rider as she already competed Aaron last year, but here she presented a new ride, the gorgeuos Disco Boy whom her mother, Alexandra Simons-De Ridder, has just started showing at GP level.

Louisa Lüttgen came in second aboard her sister's 2006 Burgpokal finalist Habitus. Her priority will still be the pony tour aboard Dornik B this year, but she also wants to begin testing the atmosphere amongst the Junior riders, and did this so convincingly that has been invited to the Preis der Besten qualifier with both Habitus and Riverdance.

Thea Felicitas Müller was a Junior last year as well -- until her horse Highway became the victim of an incurable eye infection and suddenly went blind late last summer. As he seemed to cope unusually well with this, they decided to keep him around.

Today was Thea's second competition aboard the blind horse, and while it wasn't flawless, it was an impressive demonstration of trust between horse and rider.  

Lydia Camp and Magic Old Time won third place. 

Annabel Frenzen has found a gorgeous new ride in Royal Rubin. They placed fourth. 

Lina Claren and the lovely, petite Diddi's Amore placed fifth.

Louisa Lüttgen was coached by her sister Anna-Katharina, who hopes to reach Grand Prix level with the horse herself. 

Lydia & Magic Old Time: Look at those Trakehner ears!
