Championship success motivates
"P.S.I." - three letters that not only stand for the world's largest private horse auction, but are also a synonym for sport horses of the highest quality for more than 40 years. The individual and age-appropriate upbringing and training of the young equine athletes by the experienced staff and riders at Lewitz, Osthoff, Mühlen and Hagen set the course for a successful future in sport. "Ten percent of the horses that competed at the last Olympic Games and World Championships were born in the Lewitz. This is a great breeding success and of course a great motivation for us," adds Paul Schockemöhle.
