SALZBURG, Austria, Jan. 20, 2021–Isabell Werth rode DSP Quantaz to the pair’s 10th straight victory in winning the Amadeus Horse Indoors CDI3* Grand Prix Thursday and the first international dressage competition in Europe this year.

Isabell and the 11-year-old German Sport Horse stallion scored 78.630% for the win  since beginning competition on Quantaz in May 2019. The horse is owned by her long-time sponsor Madeleine Winter-Schultze and Austrian Olympian Victoria Max Theurer who is coached by Isabell.

Lena Waldmann also of Germany and Fiderdance posted a personal best score of 74.065% to place second. The duo’s previous best was 73.152% set last September.

Nanna Skodborg Merrald, who rides for Denmark’s Blue Hors stud, and Orthilia took third place on 73.413% in the first international competition for the pair since Nanna took over the ride last year.

Orthilia, a 16-year-old Oldenburg mare, was ridden by Fiona Bigwood on British teams for silver at the 2016 Olympics in Rio de Janeiro and the 2015 European Championships. The horse was sold to Agnete Kirk Thinggaard of Blue Hors stud in 2017 but after five international starts was out of competition with an injury throughout most of 2019.
