STUTTGART GERMAN MASTERS: winning rides in Internet

(acm/mps) Thousands of equestrian fans were already in fever of excitement on the first three days of the 21st International STUTTGART GERMAN MASTERS Horse Show in the Hanns-Martin-Schleyer-Halle, as were the horsemen and women from all over the world and they all relished jumping, dressage, driving and vaulting competitions of the highest class.

But all those not able to follow the indoor horse show with the world’s biggest diversity live in the arena can still enjoy the impressive winning rides from start to finish. One has already been able to watch films of the press conferences on the horse show’s home page www.stuttgart-german-masters.de since 2000. But now for the first time one can view or download recordings of the winning rides in the main competitions at the STUTTGART GERMAN MASTERS on the Internet site. Users have already utilised the service 3,000 times over the first two days of the horse show. In addition to the current press releases, starting and competitor lists and the live results service, the new facility has without a doubt contributed to the impressive hit figures for www.stuttgart-german-masters.de. 800,000 page impressions were recorded from Wednesday to Friday. Webmaster Markus Bechert expects that total to increase to three million up to and including Sunday.
