In the FEI test for young horses, 6-year olds, upper medium level, Uwe Schwanz and Lautrec landed in the ribbons. The pair placed 8th in the qualification round. The stallion, which was sired by Lord Sinclair, is considered to be one of the finest young dressage stallions in Bavaria. At the Munich CDI earlier this year at Riem, he had won the qualifier for the Federal Championships with ease.

„The fact that a Bavarian Warmblood horse is so competitive here not only speaks for the quality of our horses down south,” says rider Uwe Schwanz, “but also for the quality of the Niedermair horse breeding farm, with whose horses I have been competing for years.”

The stallion, with a dam by Adlerschild xx, is owned by the German veterinarian and dressage rider Dr. Tina von Block. His legendary sire, Lord Sinclair, is one of the most renowned dressage sires of our time. He was also bred by the Niedermair family.
