A generationsabell Werth won Dressage rider Experienced an emotional roller coaster in Hagen, which is rare in this controlled sport. When her anger at the irritating ratings of the team judges subsided, all of this, yes, all the championship battles, even the team championship on Wednesday, seemed to be secondary. On the same night, she was called urgently to her Olympic racer Bella Rose, who was suffering from colic at her home in Rheinberg. The sorrel mare has been taken to the Meerbusch Veterinary Clinic and must be operated on.
The most successful rider in the world jumped into the car and hurried to her painful mare, she has a very special relationship with the mare. She called them her heart horse, and now this heart horse is in fatal danger. “The Bella Rose case is a particularly severe and painful type of colic, the so-called upper hiatus, which conventional drugs cannot help,” said team veterinarian Marc Koene. “Surgery is urgently needed, so there is no choice.”
Fortunately, Bella Rose got up soon after the operation, and a small incision was enough. On Thursday, before the personal decision of the Hagen Grand Prix special event took place, Isabel Voss went to the clinic for the second time, and in the afternoon she returned to work-she took a video with Bella Rose on her mobile phone, just Like she had the first meal again. Speaking of which, Isabel Worth has left Old Panch. “Today is not the easiest day,” she said. “And the old Wuhun is no longer there.”
“We started on the road”
But then she rode her black mare Weihegold, a beautiful, reliable, and loyal horse that may not be as talented as Bellaroth, but always performs well when asked. Werth thought: Today I just want to enjoy it. Then Wichgold started, as if he wanted her rider to forget her grief. “We started on the road,” she reported, “I blocked everything out.” She thanked her horse very much, and she said, “She took me.”
Weihegold made her advantage shine on piffe and passage without making any mistakes. They are 81.702 percentage points behind the current inviolable Olympic champion Jessica von Bredow-Werndl (Jessica von Bredow-Werndl), she is the golden mare Dalera from Tokyo. Her 84.271 percentage points are outstanding. If there are no mistakes, the change from jump to jump may be even more. The two celebrated their Olympic status in Hagen again, and it is hard to imagine that they will not win the freestyle on Saturday.
So you will see Jessica von Bredo-Weindel and Isabel Voss again in Hagen. And Helen Langerhamberg (Havixbeck) will be able to show her long-legged Holstein mare Annabel again. After two mistakes the day before, she lost a lot of points. This time she was determined to pass an error-free test and succeeded. She scored 75.228 percentage points from seven judges, ahead of Framersheim’s internal competitor Dorothee Schneider in 14th place, and her substitute Faustus was 14th-her Olympic performance was short. It was cancelled within time. Since each country only allows three pairs to participate in freestyle, their 74.802 percentage points are not enough to advance.
Judges with different opinions
This time, seven judges—as criticized by Voss the day before—made very different assessments. Helen Langehanenberg ranges from 72 to 77 percentage points, Dorothee Schneider ranges from 71 to 77, and for other drivers, this range is even larger-it’s not worth it at all for a championship fight with international drivers. Fluctuations.
“Judging is not my job,” Helen Langhamberg said, shrugging at the sensitive topic. Dorothy Schneider had other ideas, namely the grand plan for the 13-year-old Faust. She said that she wanted to find out the source of the mistake he made in the article. Of course it is to fix it. “If we can take this step, then he will have everything needed for a champion horse.” Even if the kind Faust stepped on her right foot at the team awards ceremony the day before, she couldn’t restrain her joy. . The feet are blue. “But I can walk again,” she said happily.
Therefore, next week will bid farewell to Bella Rose at the charming CHIO in Aachen. This 17-year-old mare became world and European champions with Voss and won individual silver medals and team gold medals at the Tokyo Olympics. It has a dramatic medical history and will continue to recover. Even her farewell is inseparable from the health drama, which is almost typical for the fragile queen Belarus.
