Record numbers of competitors results in one more Derby day
With more than 1000 nominations and 420 horses, the 2008 NRHA Breeders Derby is developing into the biggest show in the history of the NRHA Germany. In fact, the number of competitors made it necessary to add another show day. So, this year’s Breeders Derby already starts on Sunday, June 22 with the Jackpot Open class. There are a number of fine reining classes but the focus is on the Breeders Derby classes of course.
Especially the Open Breeders Derby classes should be a sight to see. Maybe the most famous horse nominated there is Star Spangled Whiz. The stallion by Topsail Whiz won the Italian Derby a few weeks ago with Rudi Kronsteiner (AUT) in the saddle who rode him to a new European record score: his 236 was only half a point below the world record. Rudi Kronsteiner will ride two more horses in this class. Oliver Stein and Nico Hoermann nominated three horses each as well. Oliver Stein will e.g. ride SES Smart Poco Chex, the stallion he won the Championship for 5-year-old horses with last year, and NRHA Breeders Futurity Reserve Champion SES Topsail Whiz. Nico Hoermann saddles Sparkles Pretty Gal, the mare he became CRI Champion with in Berlin. Other renowned competitors are Morey Fisk (CAN), Michael Steimer, Daniel Klein, Torsten Gaertner, Steffen Breug, Sabrina Schwab, Bruno Leken, Michael Saupe, Bernie Hoeltzel (CAN), Kay Wienrich, Volker Schmitt, Susanne Becker-Rosen, Christof Valtl, Egon Gerstgrasser (ITA), Daniel Schlömer, Alexander Ripper, Ilan Rosenberg (ISR), Sandra Breitenstein, Chantal Wielens (BEL), Emanuel Ernst, Matthias Frisch and Hannes Bolz.
Ten per cent increase in Non Pro Derby Class
There are more than ten per cent more competitors in the Non Pro Breeders Derby class. One of the most renowned here is Tina Kuenstner-Mantl who was NRHA World Reserve Champion Non Pro. Then there is Uwe Gerbig and RS Bon Ton Jac who became Breeders Derby Champion 2007. Further competitors are Ebi Simon, Kerstin Lill, Olga Hofmann, Sven Buerig, Hermann Kind, Juergen Baetcher, Ewald Rifeser (ITA) and Brigitte Inndorf.
There is a go round and a final for the Breeders Derby Champions Non Pro and Open. The Go round will be on Wednesday, June 25, the finals on Saturday, June 28.
