Only one pony (in both divisions) got the required 7.5 to qualify for the BuCha, and Dance Star AT (with Bianca Nowag; the pair already qualified on Olfen a couple of weeks ago) doesn't even have a Rhinelander brand |
Djaufaila (by Danny Gold) won the 6-jr-old class but also failed to qualify |
Der kleine Prints (by Don Joshi) needs to develop more muscle, but he his finally manageable enough for his owner Tatjana Hoffmann to steer him peacefully through a test |
If there was one pony among all the competitors that does belong to the BuCha, no questions asked, it was Ghost. Last year's champion (then ridden by Louisa Lüttgen) is now ridden by his owner Jessica Krieg, who only turned twelve three months ago. Despite her youth, she already displays an awesome measure of precision in the saddle, and there wasn't a single test that was nearly as effortless and graceful as the one these two presented. But. Due to an imbalance of Jessica's aids, he was uneven in both trot extensions. Instead of ringing him off, as they could have, or giving him a low mark for the trot and the stellar marks he deserved for everything else, as they should have, the judges gave him overall lukewarm marks that resulted in a 6.8 that didn't even earn him a ribbon. What a shame! |
