German's dressage queen Dorothee Schneider debuted last weekend with one of her new horse in the Dutch town Ankum. She and her nine year old Faustus (by Falsterbo) entered the Intermediare II and recieved a beautiful score of 73.421%.
For several months she's been riding the brown gelding. In October last year she gave an clinic at the Global Dressage Forum with assistent coach Jonny Hilberath.
The gelding was top of the Hannover auction being sold for 36.000 euros in 2013. He ended up under the saddle of Dirk Linden who didn't compete much with him. However when they did enter the ring they always were in the prizemoney. In march last year the pair finally debuted in the Grand Prix.
