In the saddle on the 12-year-old Oldenburg gelding Denoix PCH, the assistant riding instructor at the stables belonging to the team Olympic, world and European champion Hubertus Schmid was given 73.478 per cent points. It meant that Isabell Werth atop the 12-year-old Hanoverian Gut Wettlkam’s D’avie FRH was relegated into second place after scoring 72.304 points. Owned by Lisa Müller and Thomas Müller, the German football World Cup winner who is on the books at Bayern Munich, the horse has been ridden for a few weeks now by the “Dressage Queen”.

Third place went to Germany’s Bianca Nowag-Aulenbrock on her 12-year-old Hanoverian gelding Queolito (69.978).

In Stuttgart in 2019, Katharina Hemmer was one of the finalists in the Piaff-Förderpreis when she placed seventh.
