In Strzegom/POL, the Canterbury/Perceive Arrogance xx daughter Crystal-Annabell (breeder: Susanne Rundshagen, Panten) and Hannah Busch became European Junior Champions. The pair did not add any more penalties in the cross-country and course to their dressage result of the two-star long test. A few weeks ago, they were runners-up in the German Championships in Luhmühlen. With this outstanding performance, Crystal-Annabell and her 18-year-old rider laid the foundation for the German team gold. The European Champion team also included Favorita V by First Ampere/Bonifatius (breeder: Peter Vollmers, Plaaz) and Pita Schmidt, who came tenth in the individual classification. Third in the group was the 16-year-old Carlotta by Contendro/Calido (breeder: Stall Brummer, Bunde), with whom Mathis Huisinga took 13th place.
The German young riders secured the bronze medal in the team competition. The Araldik/Lord Pezi daughter Alemania (breeder: Bernd Hickert, Marsberg) and Zoe Deusing made a significant contribution to the success, finishing eighth in the CCI3*-L.
