The DWB-Team for the FEI WBFSH Dressage World Breeding Championships for Young Horses at Ermelo in the Netherlands is ready and consists of four horses in each age group.
This event for 5, 6 and 7-year-old dressage horses has developed into one of the annual highlights for breeders, riders and dressage lovers. The Championships focus on the connection between breeding and sport, and Danish Warmblood horses have an impressive number of medals achieved at these championships – a total of 10 gold medals, 6 silver medals and 4 bronze medals.
Last year, the beautiful and expressive 5-year-old mare Lyngbjergs St. Paris by Blue Hors St. Schufro, bred by Bente Børjesson and ridden by Victoria Vallentin, captured the hearts of both spectators and judges and earned a gold medal. The pair will be back this year as a part of the Danish Warmblood team in Ermelo
