The new rider of the Holsteiner mare is Max Kühner, as Friedrichsen confirmed to our colleagues at Spring-reiter. Currently ranked 23rd on the FEI World Ranking, Kühner will debut the mare this week at the German Masters in Stuttgart!

“The mare remains owned by Stephan Johannsen, only the rider and the stable will change,” explained Friedrichsen to Spring-reiter.

The 51-year-old Kühner has already competed with the mare a few times, including in Vejer de la Frontera, Spain, at 3* level. Out of six starts, the pair placed four times.
