Florinio and Anna-Lena Kracht win German Dressage Derby in Hamburg.

The Floriscount/Don Vino son Florinio (breeder: Bernhard and Johannes Achter, Haren) and Anna-Lena Kracht sensationally won the German Dressage Derby in Hamburg. Both the horse and the rider were the best in the final with horse change and scored the highest number of points. The pair found their way into the final as winners of the Grand Prix. "Being in the final was a great success for me. It is indescribable to emerge as the winner here," said the rider.

Florinio's career began in 2010 at the Elite Foals and Broodmare Auction in Verden. As a four-year-old, he came to Anna-Lena Kracht, who rode him from tests for young riding horses to Grand Prix level. Eleven years ago, the 34-year-old from Groß-Steinrade already stood on the podium in the German Dressage Derby - in the U25 age group. Back then, she came second with the His Highness/Regazzoni son Hendrix (breeder: Jörg Reyer, Nordleda).
