Greta Busacker won the title of Vice Bundeschampion for seven-year-old dressage horses with the mare Frieda by For Dance - Fidermark. With a score of 78.520 %, the pair came second in the advanced (S) level test for young dressage horses. Greta Busacker was also awarded the Animal Welfare Prize for her performance. Earlier in the qualifier, they also secured the reserve victory. Frieda is owned by Dr. Jutta Sielhorst and was born in Otto Klewitz's stables.

For Joy by For Dance - Detroit, who was presented in the saddle of her breeder and owner Andrea Krehenwinkel, once again impressed in the six-year-old dressage horse class. The mare already has a wealth of successes to her name and has already placed several times in the finals of the Bundeschampionat as well as winning the title of Westphalian Champion.  

Among the three-year-old pony stallions, two of Neverland WE's offspring were decorated with medals:
