HAGEN, Germany, April 24, 2022–Susan Pape of Great Britain on V-Plus won the Nürnberger Burg-Pokal Prix St. Georges at Horses & Dreams Sunday to qualify for the year-end final for Germany’s Small Tour. Sönke Rothenberger on the eight-year-old stallion Fendi captured the Louisdor Prize qualifier for developing Grand Prix.

Susan, based in Germany, and the eight-year-old Oldenburg stallion (Vivaldi x Fuerst Romancier) were awarded 74.268% for the win. V-Plus was bought by Harmony Sporthorses of Kiowa, Colorado for €1.2/US$1.295 million at the 2018 P.S.I. auction. Susan won bronze on the horse as a five-year-old at the Germany young horse championships, and also competed in the World Young Horse Championships the same year.

V-Plus started this year in Wellington, Florida winning the CDI2* St. Georges with 71.912%.

Germany’s Frederic Wandres and Dolciario, an eight-year-old Hanoverian gelding (Danciano x Don Frederico), placed second on 74.097%.

Frederic and the horse owned by Hof Kasselmann led the German team to gold in this year’s CDIO3* Nations Cup of mixed Big and Small Tour horses.

Sönke and Fendi, a Danish Warmblood stallion (Franklin x Diamond) owned by the Rothenberger family scored 76.680% for the Louisdor Prize victory to claim a start in the final of developing Grand Prix horses.

The 27-year-old Sönke is best known for German team gold medal performances on Cosmo, a KWPN gelding, at the 2016  Olympics, the 2018 World Equestrian Games, the 2017 and 2019 European Championships as well as the 2014 European Young Rider Championships.
