A FEW WORDS 

OF WELCOME 

Greetings to the World Equestrian 

Games 2010 in Kentucky 

With the World Equestrian Games in 

the US American Lexington, the idea 

of joint World Championships in all 

equestrian disciplines of the International 

Equestrian Federation (FEI) 

celebrates its 20th anniversary. This 

year, the venue is outside of Europe 

for the first time. A proof that the 

World Equestrian Games have truly 

emancipated as a global event. I am 

particularly glad that for the first time 

in history, Para-Equestrian Dressage 

will be included in the 2010 Alltech 

FEI World Equestrian Games in Kentucky. 

For the German Olympic Committee 

for Equestrian Sports and the German 

Equestrian Federation the World 

Equestrian Games in Lexington represent 

one of the biggest organizational 

and logistic challenges in its long history. 

Never before so many horses 

and people had to be transported 

over such a distance and needed to 

be taken care of in a way that secures 

they can compete under ideal conditions. 

I sincerely thank the staff and all 

volunteers who put so much energy 

in achieving this big goal. The same 

thanks go to the numerous sponsors 

and patrons whose valuable contribution 

is indispensable for the success 

of German athletes and horses in Lexington. 

Last but not least I wish to 

express my gratitude to the German 

horse breeders, because not only 

the majority of our athletes but also 

a large number of competitors from 

other countries participate with their 

wonderful German Horses. 

I wish all German competitors the 

best possible results. At the same 

time we should not forget that the 

most important goals in all disciplines 

are the welfare of our partners, the 

horses, and a fair attitude towards 

them and our contenders. May the 

accompanying team behind the team, 

the officials and the numerous German 

supporters enjoy exciting, happy 

and unforgettable days in Kentucky.

Equestrian Federation

DRESSAGE 

Dressage, an Olympic 

discipline, is one of 

the most successful 

sports in German equestrianism. 

The aim of every form of 

equestrian training is the development 

of harmony between rider and 

horse; dressage is more than just 

the execution and presentation of 

movements and figures. The tests 

are aimed at training the horse gymnastically 

and to develop it correctly. 

Through training, the rider obtains a 

horse who reacts submissively to 

the aids – the rider’s weight, legs 

and reins. A correctly-trained horse 

is the best possible basis for safety 

in equestrianism. Dressage also 

increases the performance capabilities 

of the horse. It serves, ultimately, 

to maintain the horse’s health 

since, through correct training, the 

strength of the horse will be built 

up and its joints will be made more 

flexible. No matter which equestrian 

discipline one specialises in, 

without dressage it is impossible. It 

is the basis for all other equestrian 

activities: for the happy hacker, who 

rides up and down hills with a balanced 

seat; for the endurance rider, 

who needs to ensure the health of 

his horse so that it can cover 100mile 

rides in natural balance whilst 

conserving energy; and for the show 

jumper, who can only get through 

all the turns in a course and cover 

the distances between jumps with 

a well-ridden, gymnasticised horse 

with a sound dressage training. 

Competitive sport in Germany is divided 

into the following classes: E 

(Preliminary/Training Level), A (Novice/First 

Level), L (Elementary-Medium/Second 

Level), M (Advanced 

Medium/Third Level) and S (Advanced/Fourth 

Level). The most difficult 

classes are the top dressage tests 

(Grand Prix & Grand Prix Special) 

which are ridden at European and 

World Championships as well as at 

the Olympic Games. These tests, 

which are drawn up by the International 

Equestrian Federation (FEI), are 

ridden in a 20 x 60 arena and consist 

of approximately 35 movements, 

which must be memorised. 

Dressage tests consist of a certain 

number of movements which follow 

a specific order or, in a Freestyle, 

can be carried out in a freely-chosen 

order to a musical composition. The 

horse moves in the basic paces of 

walk, trot and canter on straight or 

curved lines, forwards, sideways or 

even backwards. At the higher levels 

of dressage, more difficult movements 

are introduced (collected 

and extended paces, half-passes, 

passage, piaffe, pirouettes, flying 

changes, and so forth). 

The tests are evaluated by a group 

of three or five judges, all placed 

in different positions, which form 

a jury, judging on a scale which 

ranges from zero points (‘not executed’) 

to ten points (‘excellent’) for 

each movement. The impulsion and 

the quality of the paces, the horse’s 

looseness (relaxation and suppleness), 

throughness and submission, 

as well as the rider’s seat and effectiveness 

in the use of the aids are 

all evaluated. Marks are deducted 

in the event of tests not being rid- 

den correctly. The guidebook to the 

tests explains what is required of 

the rider and the horse in each dressage 

test.

DRIvING 

Driving is booming in 

Germany and, whether 

it be as a hobby or 

competitively, an increasingly 

high number of horse 

lovers have turned to this discipline 

in recent years. Singles, pairs, fourin-hand, 

tandem, random, horses or 

ponies – anything goes. In the competitive 

sport there are dressage 

tests, cross-country marathons, obstacle 

cone courses as well as the 

combination of all three. The combined 

classes are valid for both the 

individual and the combined classification, 

which differs from normal 

eventing, where there is only one 

‘overall’ placing. In dressage, the 

gymnasticity of the horse and the 

evaluation of the level of training 

are the priorities. In the obstacle 

course through a course of cones, 

accuracy, speed, obedience and 

submission are the key elements. 

The showpiece of any driving competition 

is the marathon with its 

spectacular obstacles. 

Dressage 

In the dressage test, the gymnasticity 

of the horse and the evaluation 

of the level of training are the priorities. 

Here, a specific dressage test 

is carried out in a 40 x 100 arena. 

The judges will be marking, in addition 

to the actual execution of the 

test, the correctness of the clothing 

and of the traditionally-made carriage, 

including its suitability to the 

horse. The dressage test consists of 

figures and movements which can 

be found in ridden dressage tests, 

including transitions and flying 

changes. The dressage movements 

are scored on a scale of 0 to 10, 

including sub-divisions into tenths. 

A score of 5.0 must be obtained to 

qualify for the subsequent phases, 

which are, usually, an obstacle cone 

course and the cross country marathon. 

Marathon 

A course divided into five sections 

which usually covers approximately 

20 kilometres is driven. During 

each section, a specific pace or a 

time (with both a minimum and a 

maximum time) is to be observed. 

The final section has eight obstacles 

which are to be negotiated as 

quickly as possible. The obstacle 

course can be covered in canter. 

Sports clothing is worn and a marathon 

carriage is usually attached. 

The grooms, sitting at the rear of the 

carriages, stabilise them through 

corners by shifting their weight and 

they will often tell the drivers which 

line to follow and which way to pass 

through the obstacles by calling loudly. 

Obstacle cone driving 

This phase is executed through 

a course of pairs of cones, with 

balls balanced on top of each cone. 

Speed, accuracy, obedience and 

submission of the horses are tested. 

Depending on the difficulty of 

the test, there can be up to 20 pairs 

of cones, placed between 20 - 50 cm 

wider than the wheels of the carriage. 

The pairs of cones are to be 

passed through as quickly as possible 

without the cone being moved 

or the ball, which is perched atop 

each cone, being dislodged. The 

pairs of cones are identifiable by a 

number, with the right cone having a 

red number and the left cone displaying 

a white number. Anybody who 

misses out a pair of cones or passes 

through from the wrong side is disqualified. 

The scoring follows two 

different methods. The first begins 

by counting first the faults and then 

the time so the winner is the one 

with the lowest number of penalty 

points; if there is a draw, then the 

quickest time determines the winner. 

Each obstacle which is knocked 

down counts as five penalty points. 

The second method of scoring adds 

five seconds to the eventual time for 

each penalty and the quickest competitor 

is declared the winner.

LEADING MEDALISTS 

SINCE 1957

WWW.PIKEUR.DE

ENDURANCE 

Endurance is all about 

covering a prescribed 

distance as quickly 

as possible. Veterinarians 

examine the horses’ health 

at so-called ‘vet gates’ (veterinary 

checkpoints) and again at the conclusion 

of the ride, checking the 

horses’ pulse, soundness and overall 

health. The horses may only 

continue the ride if the pulse values 

correspond to prescribed targets. A 

horse who is not sound or who is 

presenting metabolism problems 

will be deemed unfit to continue the 

competition by the vets. Therefore, 

simply crossing the finishing line 

does not imply that the race is over. 

The horse must be presented for a 

vet check within a certain time and 

only if the heart rate, the soundness 

and the overall health of the horse 

are satisfactory the race is actually 

over. Therefore, the winner is not 

necessarily the first over the line. 

The top distance in this ‘marathon 

on horseback’ is 100 miles (160 km). 

Horse and rider cover the 100-mile 

distance within a day. However, it 

is a long way to go to reach that level. 

Beginners in endurance riding 

start with short, introductory rides. 

These are distances of between 25 

and 40 km. Furthermore, there are 

taster courses where one can learn 

the basics of this enduring discipline. 

Short-distance rides refer to 

distances of between 41 and 60 km. 

Then there are medium-distance 

rides (61 - 80 km) and long-distance 

rides (81 - 160 km). There are also 

multiple-day rides in which distances 

of 60 - 100 km are covered 

over two or more days.

EvENTING 

Three-Day Eventing, an 

Olympic discipline since 

1912, is the ‘multiple 

competition’ of the 

equestrian disciplines. An eventing 

competition consists of dressage, 

cross country and jumping phases. 

The official international term for 

eventing is Concours Complet (CC). 

Dressage is ridden individually and 

is always the opening event of an 

eventing competition. It is judged in 

the same way as a standard dressage 

test; however, the final result 

is converted into penalties. This 

forms the basis for the subsequent 

scoring. 

Traditionally, the second phase 

of an eventing competition is the 

cross country over natural obstacles 

of varying forms on a cross country 

course. The course is to be completed 

within a certain time; exceeding 

this time results in time faults. 

Penalty points are also given for 

refusals or ‘dangerous riding’. Horse 

or rider falls result in elimination. 

The jumping phase, which is usually 

preceded by a veterinary check 

testing the condition of the horses, 

follows the common rules of jumping. 

Here too, penalty points are 

accumulated for knockdowns, falls 

and refusals as well as for exceeding 

the allocated time. The overall 

winner is the combination with the 

fewest penalties. 

Since eventing is one all-round competition, 

the three phases are not 

as demanding as the individual disciplines, 

but an overall better condition 

of the rider and the horse is 

required. The typical eventing horse 

not only has to have three good basic 

paces, but it must also have a 

good jump and good gallop.

OFFICIAL OUTFITTER SINCE 1972

JUMPING 

Jumping is a relatively 

young equestrian discipline 

at the Olympics 

and owes its origin to 

fox-hunting. The first ‘competitive 

jumping’ over one or several artificial 

jumps started in 1900; soon 

after, Italy’s Federico Caprilli revolutionised 

the sport with his development 

of the ‘forward seat’. Jumping 

has been an Olympic discipline since 

1912. The international term for a 

jumping event is Concours de Saut 

d‘Obstacles (CS). 

The object of the discipline is to 

complete a course of jumps without 

knocking any down as quickly as 

possible. Jumping is characterised 

by rapidity, technique and courage. 

It is an extremely popular sport in 

Germany, being a discipline in which 

the country has enjoyed extraordinary 

success. The specific test in 

jumping is to ride a horse to the 

jump in such a way that the animal 

can produce an optimal flight over 

the obstacle. The rider needs plen- 

ty of skill, balance, sense of rhythm 

and accuracy in the use of the aids 

to ride the horse over the jumps 

successfully. Jumping classes are 

offered, both nationally and internationally, 

on a scale of E (for beginners) 

to S (advanced) with up to five 

stars, with the stars determining the 

difficulty of each class (S* is easier 

than S**). 

Classes are ridden over a course 

of jumps. In individual and team 

competitions, they can be carried 

out over several rounds and, if necessary 

– if two or more combinations 

have successfully completed 

the course without any faults, i.e. 

they had a ‘clear round’ – a jump-off 

against the clock may be required 

to determine the winner. The rider 

with the lowest number of penalties 

is the winner. The course consists, 

at international competitions, 

of approximately 15 jumps of up to 

1.6 metres in height and 2 metres 

in length. An open water jump of 

up to 4.75 metres in length is also 

one of the obstacles which must be 

successfully negotiated. The length 

of a course ranges from 600 to 700 

metres. Faults are accumulated for 

knockdowns, refusals, falls and for 

exceeding the allocated time.

PARA-DRESSAGE 

Para-Equestrianism 

should not be confused 

with horse therapy or 

therapeutic riding. The 

German Curatorship for Therapeutic 

Riding (DKThR) e.V., which is an 

auxiliary association of the German 

Riding Federation (FN) e.V., cares 

for and organises para-equestrian 

sports. Special aids (such as, for 

example, adapted saddles) make 

riding accessible for people with 

serious physical as well as mental 

disabilities. 

Disabled riders are classified in 

five different grades from Ia to IV; 

the allocation of the grade depends 

on the severity of the disability and 

therefore ensures a fair competition. 

The Ia Grade is reserved for 

the most severely impaired, while 

Grade IV is for the least impaired. 

Each grade has its own tests. 

In 2006 Para-Equestrian joined the 

ranks of the other seven disciplines 

and became the eighth discipline of 

the FEI. For the first time combined 

World Championships will be held in 

Kentucky. Therefore, equestrianism 

is a role model and ground-breaker 

for the integration of para-sports. 

Grade I is reserved to the most 

severely disabled riders. The athletes 

are mostly wheelchair-bound, 

either with a low balance or with 

restricted arm or leg functionality. 

Athletes with no balance, but with 

good arm functionality are also permitted 

to start in this category. Tests 

are ridden in walk and trot; Grade I 

is subdivided into Ia (only walk may 

be ridden) and Ib (walk and trot are 

permitted). 

In Grade II, wheelchair-bound ri- 

ders with severe impairment in 

leg functionality and/or balance, 

but with a good to lightly-impaired 

arm functionality may participate. 

Athletes without the movement 

functionality of one limb are also 

permitted to start in this category. 

The test consists of walk and trot 

sequences and, if desired, of certain 

canter movements in the freestyle. 

Grade III is the most highly represented 

competitive class in Germany. 

Athletes can generally walk 

without support. They have disabilities 

either in one limb, moderate 

disabilities in both arms and both 

legs, or severe impairments in the 

arms. Athletes who are classified 

as blind (B1) can also participate in 

this class, as can those who have 

had one leg amputated. The tests 

consist of walk, trot and canter sequences. 

The demands are similar 

to those in Novice to Elementary 

classes (First/Second Level) in ablebodied 

sport. 

In Grade Iv, riders participate in tests 

similar to those up to Medium (Third 

Level) dressage in able-bodied competitions. 

Athletes have a disability 

in only one or two limbs, or have 

limitations in their vision. The tests 

consist of walk, trot and canter 

sequences whereas the Freestyle 

can include most dressage movements 

such as, for example, tempi 

changes. 

Much emphasis is placed on correct 

riding, accuracy, the riders’ aids, the 

suppleness of the horse etc. in judging 

the performance of all of the 

Grades. 

In Freestyle, it is possible to show 

dressage movements from higher 

levels. However, there are certain 

restrictions due to safety 

reasons (for example, a Grade II rider 

cannot ride a pirouette, while 

half-passes are permitted). 

In view of how the horse moves, 

anybody can recognise and judge 

the influence of the rider. One will 

be surprised at how quickly and willingly 

the horses become used to 

their riders’ ‘alternative’ aids. The 

horses are ridden with skill, never 

force. After all, each rider, whether 

able-bodied or disabled, knows his/ 

her own limitations, but has learned 

to tell the horse what he/she wants.

Reining-Team

REINING 

Reining is a western riding 

competition which 

is ridden at a canter 

(‘lope’) or gallop. It could 

be considered the western equivalent 

of dressage. The elements of 

the test originate from the way working 

horses were ridden on ranches, 

although the competitive sport has 

developed in a more ‘artificial’ way, 

with the quick succession of fast 

and slow circles, flying changes, 

spins, sliding stops, rollbacks and 

backups. These movements are repeated 

in every test, but can appear 

in a different order. There are ten 

patterns which are included in the 

rulebook. The technique of reining 

recalls the origins of this sport. For 

example, in most competitions the 

rider rides with just one hand. What 

is desired is a precise control of the 

horse on a loose rein through the 

subtle use of reins, legs, weight 

and voice. 

A good reining horse should be willing 

and be controllable with few, invisible 

aids. It must obey its rider fully. 

Each individual movement must 

be carried out under full control. Any 

deviation from the precise pattern 

means a lack or a temporary loss of 

control and is therefore regarded as 

a mistake which, depending on the 

level of the deviation, is penalised 

by a point deduction. As well as 

point deductions for mistakes, there 

are also point additions. These are 

for smoothness, elegance, posture, 

speed and the technique with which 

each movement is executed. There 

are different reining patterns whose 

individual components must be carried 

out in the prescribed order. The 

patterns must be memorised.

vAULTING 

Vaulting is a gymnastic 

performance on a moving 

horse. The collaboration 

of the horse, 

the longeur and the vaulter is the 

basis for this equestrian discipline. 

The longeur lunges the horse on 

a circle and the vaulter performs 

exercises on horseback, in harmony 

with the movement of the horse. 

There are team, individual and pairs 

(pas-de-deux) competitions at national 

and international level, right up 

to the European and World Championships. 

Team and individual competitions 

consist of compulsory and 

freestyle tests; in individual vaulting, 

there is an additional technical 

programme, while pairs is purely a 

freestyle test. 

A vaulting team for international 

competitions consists of seven 

vaulters, from which only six may 

take part in the four-minute freestyle 

test. Initially, the compulsory 

exercises are performed by all 

seven vaulters. Subsequently, a 

freestyle is carried out twice, with 

static and dynamic elements, in 

which up to three vaulters are involved 

simultaneously. Individual 

vaulting consists of a compulsory 

test and a one-minute freestyle with 

static and dynamic individual exercises 

as well as exercises from the 

ground. This is followed by a oneminute 

technical programme with 

built-in predefined elements, as well 

as an additional freestyle test. Pairs 

vaulting consists of two two-minute 

freestyle tests. The freestyle tests 

are performed to music in a flowing 

sequence of movements. 

Vaulters need a variety of skills such 

as coordination, feeling, balance, 

agility and elasticity. Together with 

an experienced longeur and a correctly 

trained, suitable horse, a successful 

unit can be formed.

THE GERMAN OLYMPIC COMMITTEE 

FOR EQUESTRIAN SPORT 

The German Olympic Committee for 

Equestrian Sport (DOKR) is a member 

association of the German Equestrian 

Federation (FN) and is responsible 

for promotion top performance 

sport in Germany. In addition to the 

three Olympic equestrian disciplines 

of dressage, jumping and eventing, 

the DOKR also supports the other 

five FEI*-equestrian sport disciplines 

of endurance riding, carriage driving, 

reining, vaulting and Para equestrian. 

The DOKR not only looks after the 

top adult riders, but also the young 

high-level riders in the three age categories 

of young riders (aged 18 to 

21), juniors (aged 16 to 18) and pony 

riders (up to age 16). 

In addition, the DOKR is in charge of 

managing and coordinating the national 

coaches. The national centre 

for equestrian sporting excellence 

in Warendorf (Bundesleistungszentrum 

Reiten, BLZ) plays an important 

role in the DOKR’s promotion of 

high-level sport. Last year, it offered 

110 courses and training events inhouse 

and 50 courses out-of-house 

which around 1.600 riders from all 

disciplines, with nearly 2.500 horses 

and ponies, participated. The national 

centre is also responsible for 

supporting and training the sports 

school of the federal army in Warendorf. 

* FEI=Fédération Equestre International 

g Round about 1,240,000 men and 

women in Germany (from the age 

of 14 upwards) ride regularly. If one 

adds boys and girls under the age 

of 14, there is a total number of 

1,600,000 to 1,700,000 riders, drivers 

and vaulters in Germany. This 

was revealed in a market research in 

charge of the German FN in 2001. 

g According to the same study, at 

least about 870,000 persons in Germany 

(from the age of 14 upwards) 

would like to ride. Including boys 

and girls under 14, this is a total 

number of about 1,100,000 potenti- 

EQUESTRIAN SPORT

al riders. 8,740,000 men and women 

in Germany (from the age of 14 upwards) 

have a general interest in 

horses and equestrian sport. 

Including the young people under 

the age of 14, this is a total number 

of nearly 11,000,000. 

g There are more than 1,000,000 

horses and ponies in Germany (60 

million horses world wide). Thus the 

horse population in Germany has 

nearly quadrupled within the last 40 

years. 

143

144 

EQUESTRIAN SPORT 

IN GERMANY 

Organized Equestrian Sport* 

g 7,663 riding and driving clubs 

have 748,839 members. With these 

figures the German Equestrian Federation 

(Fédération Equestre Nationale, 

FN, founded 1905) the overall 

national association of equestrian 

sports, is the largest equestrian association 

in the world. 

g About 70 % of the FN members 

(556,485) are female while the male 

group is much smaller with only 

192,354. 

g The “Deutsche Reiterliche Vereinigung 

e. V. (FN)” is the umbrella organisation 

for horse sport and breeding 

in Germany with 17 regional, 7 

affiliated and 26 breeding organisations 

who are member associations 

of the FN. 

g Directly affiliated to the FN are 

also 3,888 commercial horse centres 

and 57,900 personal members. 

Competition Sport* 

g 3,677 equestrian events with 

69,425 competitions and 1,520,357 

starts were run. 27,325,959 Euro 

were paid in prize-money. Around 

2,300,000 entries were registered 

by the FN. 

g The FN issued 84,654 annual riding 

permits and 1,247 licences for 

foreign riders competing in German 

national events. 

g The FN issued documents for 

136,635 competition horses and 

2,042 FEI passports for horses competing 

internationally. 

Successes* 

g At Olympic Games (1912 to 2004) 

German dressage, jumping and 

eventing riders won 81 medals: 37 

gold, 19 silver and 23 bronze medals. 

g At World Championships (since 

1953) in the seven** official equestrian 

disciplines (Dressage, Jumping, 

Eventing, Driving, Vaulting, 

Endurance and Reining), German 

riders, drivers and vaulters won 140 

medals: 59 gold, 38 silver and 43 

bronze medals. 

g At European Championships in the 

formerly** seven official equestrian 

disciplines, including Youth Championships, 

the number of medals 

won by German riders, drivers and 

vaulters amounts to 871: 370 gold, 

281 silver, 220 bronze medals. 

This record of results renders Germany 

the most successful horse 

sport nation of the world, and most 

likely equestrian sport is the most 

successful sports discipline in Germany. 

Horses – The Economic Factor 

g According to a scientific survey 

nearly every 3rd horse creates one 

job. According to this approximately 

300,000 jobs are provided by sport 

and hobby as well as the breeding 

and keeping of horses in Germany. 

Between 7,000 and 10,000 people 

earn their living by giving riding lessons 

and education of riders and 

horses. About 3,000 companies in 

Germany deal mainly with equestrian 

articles. 

g Riders and horse owners spend 

approx. 2,6 billion Euro per year for 

recurring costs around the horse. It 

is extremely difficult to estimate the 

entire turn-over of equestrian sport, 

however, careful projections and estimations 

put the sum at well over 

5 billion Euro. 

Further facts and figures can be 

found in the annual report of the German 

Equestrian Federation for Equestrian 

Sports (FN) and on the Website 

www.pferd-aktuell.de. 

* All of the subsequent figures relate to 

the year 2009 unless a different date is 

stated. 

** For the first time in history, Para-Dres- 

sage will be included in the 2009 World 

Equestrian Games.

GERMAN HORSE BREEDING – 

THE GUARANTOR FOR SUCCESS 

For decades, German horse breeding 

has made its mark on international 

equestrian sport. The names 

of German horses are frequently 

connected with Olympic, World and 

European Championship titles, successes 

at prestigious Grand Prix and 

at World Cup finals. 

The sophisticated breeding pro- 

gramme (a requirement of the animal 

breeding legislation) of the 

German Equestrian Federation and 

its associated warmblood breed 

associations forms the basis for 

the long-term sporting success of 

German horses. Even though each 

breed association has its own focus 

and traditions, they all have agreed 

on a common breeding aim. The 

breeding programme ranges from 

the judgement of foals to performance 

tests for stallions and mares 

and includes a breeding value estimation 

on the basis of all sport and 

breeding dates. 

The horses are the results of a 

programme of selective breeding, 

whether they be Olympic Champions 

or vaulting horses at the riding 

club. Almost a century ago, some 

German breed associations demanded 

that only performance-tested 

stallions be used for breeding. It 

took until 1980, however, until the 

stallion performance test became 

mandatory for all future sires. Today 

there are several levels of selection 

from which detailed information can 

be gained about stallions, mares 

and their progeny. 

Facts and Figures 

g In 2009, 3,991 riding horse sires 

and 71,604 riding horse brood 

mares were registered. A total of 

35,759 riding horse foals were registered 

in 2009. In addition, we recorded 

in the field of riding ponies and 

small horses: 4,168 sires, 26,586 

brood mares and 11,402 foals. 

g At the Olympic Games in Hong 

Kong in 2008, 52 out of 194 competing 

horses were proven German 

bred horses. These German bred 

horses won 18 of 45 possible medals: 

nine gold, four silver and five 

bronze. 19 of the 47 dressage horses 

in Hong Kong were of German 

origin. In the Olympic Jumping com- 

petitions that were open to 77 horses, 

29 German-bred horses competed. 

At the World Championships 

of the formerly seven official equestrian 

disciplines in Aachen 2006, almost 

25 percent of all participating 

horses were of German origin and 

won a total of 37 medals. Thus German 

Studbooks are by far the most 

successful ones in the world.

native speakers who are well-versed in equestrian 

terminology guarantee the correctness

Riding with 

Understanding and Feeling 

Know How, Understand Why, Feel When 

In this book Michael Putz comments on 

the German Guidelines Volumes 1 & 2 

and presents clear evidence that serious, 

carefully considered training, carried out 

feelingly in accordance with the rules 

of classical equestrianism, is the system 

which is ideally suited to horses and most 

beneficial for them. His prime objective, to 

convey the real training of horse and rider, 

is achieved by means of his exceptional 

ability to recognise problems, to analyse

them and provide solutions which it is possible to implement in 

practice. The result of this form of training is the maintenance of 

the horse’s pleasure in working together with the rider, its willingness 

to perform and the “personality” of the horse as well as, 

ultimately, a harmonious partnership between rider and horse.
