The FEI/WBFSH World Breeding Dressage Championship for Young Horses in Ermelo/NED ended with great success for Hannover. Danciero and Anna Kasprzak became World Champions of seven-year-olds. Vitalos FRH and Leonie Richter were runners-up in the six-year-old class. The medal set was completed by Beck's and Thomas Schulze, who won bronze in the five-year-old class – this makes Hannover the most successful studbook of this championship’s medals table.

To the cheers of the spectators, the Dancier/Floriscount son Danciero (breeder: ZG H. Broers and J. Weber, Aurich) won gold in the seven-year-old class. He already convinced the judges in the qualification. The stallion was presented by Anna Kasprzak in a masterly manner and was the only horse in the final to receive the highest score of 10 for both the submission and the perspective. The powerful black stallion had already been Vice World Champion two years ago, at that time with Eva Möller in the saddle. The privately owned stallion has gone from one triumph to the next: he has won the Hannoveraner Riding and Dressage Horse Championships three times and was awarded the Weltmeyer Prize for his outstanding result in his stallion performance test. The representatives of the year 2016 showed outstanding quality in Ermelo. Just missing the podium by two tenths was Diaton by Dimaggio/Benetton Dream (breeder: Silke Groeneveld, Bunde) and Nicole Wego-Engelmeyer in fourth place. The premium stallion Valdiviani by Veneno/Fidertanz (breeder: Roger Ballmann, St. Vith/BEL) and Isabell Werth took fifth place.

Vice World Champion of the six-year-old dressage horses became Vitalos FRH by Vitalis/De Niro (breeder: Josef Bramlage, Sögel) with Leonie Richter in the saddle. The 2021 Bundeschampion thus repeated the outstanding result of last year. Like Danciero, the athletic liveer chestnut was also among the best of the stallions and was awarded the Weltmeyer Prize.

With the bronze medal, the Benicio/Desperados son Beck's (breeder: Christian Thelker, Venne) and Thomas Schulze took the lap of honour in the five-year-old class and thus completed the success of Hannover's stallions.
