Salzgitter site in Germany German professional dressage rider Juliane Brunkhorst has been reunited with the mare Belle de Carpie Belle de Carpie is a 12-year old Holsteiner mare by De Chirico out of U-Carpie (by Carpaccio x Grundyman xx) The mare was first competed by Kim Laura Jürgens in an A-level test in August 2014 In 2016 several rider changes followed with Katrin Hansen and Jochen Vetters climbing aboard In 2017 Brenske's girlfriend Nathalie Westphal competed the bright bay mare first at M-level and then through the small tour until the spring of 2018 Later on in 2018 professional Grand Prix rider Juliane Brunkhorst welcomed Belle de Carpie in her barn and developed the mare to the highest level In March 2019 they made their show debut in an Inter II at the CDN Hamburg and placed third They showed in the Louisdor cup qualifier in Hagen and Werder Their next start was more than a year later in Elmshorn in June 2020 followed by starts in Zeven and Elmshorn in June-July 2020 In 2020 Brenske reorganized his horse stock at the same time as Brunkhorst had to find a new barn after the owner of her old base in Hamburg closed his stable due to health reasons "I had to find a new home for my horses and because it wasn‘t that easy the owner of Carpie picked up the horses," Juliane told Eurodressage "The great opportunity arose for me in the stable "AH Abbendorf" of Finnish Sara Aarnio and my trainer Jonny Hilberath where I’m home now with my horses and work independently."  Belle de Carpie at the 2019 CDN HagenAt that time Brenske sold the number one Devanto which Brunkhorst competed at international Grand prix level He reassigned Belle de Carpie to a new rider the yard rented by Brenske's ex-wife Valerie von Hohenzollern Hermes trained Belle only for a few months "When the owner of Carpie asked me if I want to train her again i didn‘t have to think twice," said a thrilled Juliane who jumped at the occasion to get the talented mare back Brunkhorst and Belle de Carpie immediately connected again and the pair did its first show of 2021 in Vechta last weekend At the big national indoor competition at the Oldenburg Horse Center the pair placed second in the Intermediaire II with 73.860% behind Annabel Frenzen on SilberStern (74.079%) "I'm very happy that we are a team again," said Brunkhorst Related LinksDevanto, New Grand Prix Horse for

marketing and sales GmbH auction manager and executive director he and his team inspected well above 100 horses ahead of the auction And it has paid off: The current collection of the 2018 Holsteiner spring auction held in the Elmshorn Fritz-Thiedemann hall on 17 March comprises 47 young talents colts and geldings which all stood out with impressive free jumping at the selection tour are perfectly suited for producing a foal prior to an intended sport use “The three-year-olds will be delivered next week and will be publicly shown during the free jumping presentation on 11 March for the first time“ The four- to seven-year-old riding horses have already been stabled at Elmshorn and Dr Köhlbrandt is perfectly satisfied with their first public presentation last Tuesday As all horses had arrived at the facility in a very good state The auction manager is particularly taken with the four- and five-year-old Holsteiners Even though most of them are not very experienced yet ranging from top amateur mounts to an impressive number of international quality prospects Quite some horses of this calibre have found new owners through the Holsteiner spring auction in recent years like for example the Corrido-offspring Cordillo (Erik Schöning who went to Nisse Lüneburg’s yard six years ago and jumped to third position in the Klein Flottbek German Jumping Derby in 2017 Or Classic Edition by Casall (Hark Martensen Oldsum) – the highest-priced lot of 2014 is well on her way to an international showjumping career under Belgian Tom Martens providing good advertisement for the spring auction selection Another horse deserving to be mentioned is Cierra by Casall (Mathias Hansen Kronprinzenkoog); under the name Celia she was purchased by US-American Alison Firestone last year and has been collecting first results in Wellington The Cancara-daughter Dacara E (Gerd Eggers Stadum) has had first outings at international level as well The reigning State Champion has other wins including one in Oliva/Spain under her belt and just recently attracted attention in the youngster tour of the Neumünster CSI under Cassandra Orschel Warmer climes such as the Canary Islands and other sunny destinations still hold their lure for sun lovers. However,  staycationers are increasing in numbers. Attractive domestic holidays involve many outdoor activities like trips to the seaside or mountains nearby and no long queues at airports not everyone is motorized and can avail of caravans and motorhomes even though the number of registered vehicles jumped by 50 per cent between 2015 and 2020 The Elmshorn-based Green Tiny Houses is now offering accommodation in wooden housing units "Our guests can enjoy nature and see that comfort and sustainability can go hand in hand," said Jan Sadowsky After the first "Green Tiny Village" in Harlesiel with almost 20 tiny houses opened on the North Sea, three more followed in Hooksiel on the Wadden Sea coast. In 2020, the company began leasing out a house near Salem Lake, east of Hamburg, and added three more this season with another in Osterode am Harz to follow in June "We will open more units on the Baltic Sea island of Bornholm next year," said Sadowsky plans are being laid for more tiny houses in the states of Thuringia The company scours the regions for beauty spots off the beaten track and well away from heavily-frequented tourist regions I got to know many beautiful places that I didn't know before," he remarked The company relies on natural materials and high-tech to build the houses Each of the 22 to 24 square metre units is made of softwoods that have been steam-hardened without chemicals to make them weatherproof "This makes the construction as hard as oak," said Sadowsky Large panoramic windows give great views of nature Smaller windows above the beds offer glimpses of the starry night skies Seaweed fished from the Baltic Sea is used for thermal insulation "Each tiny house is equipped with an astronaut shower that recycles used water live," said Sadowsky A sophisticated filter system developed by the Swedish company the water is cleaned so quickly that it does not cool down too much This saves up to 90 per cent of the water and 80 per cent of the energy costs over conventional showers "We offered the 'Green Tiny Houses' at Lake Salem tremendous support and arranged the choice of location," said Günter Schmidt, Managing Director of Marketing and Service in the Duchy of Lauenburg. The houses are a great means of accommodation beyond holiday flats, tents and mobile homes. "Apart from ecological sustainability, we also want socially sustainable tourism," he noted the bistro at Salem Lake sells regional products "But people should be able to earn a living from it and be paid reasonably," Schmidt stressed An overnight stay in a tiny house costs between EUR 120 to 190 per night making them considerably pricier than campsite rates "They are booked by very different holidaymakers e.g. couples or groups of friends." Sadowsky is now offering slightly cheaper and smaller sleeping areas without sanitary facilities to attract more hikers Travellers can use the facilities at nearby campsites and will not have to set off on the next stage of their journey covered in dirt Camporados – 3-year-old colt by Companiero – Carlos DZ The Neumünster Holsteiner stallion grading and auction from 29 to 31 October casts its shadows before the three- to six-year-old horses coming up for sale at the Neumünster elite riding horse auction are publicly shown for the first time at the official opening training at the Elmshorn Fritz-Thiedemann-Hall the Holsteiner Verband sales team has been living up to very high standards when selecting the horses for auction This is not only supported by the horses’ bloodlines Diarado or Quidam de Revel being represented by offspring in the auction All horses are highly talented and ready to compete over the jumps in the forthcoming showing season we put our main focus on performance potential and I think we can definitely offer horses with promise who is very satisfied with his charges’ training progress The horses can be tested under saddle at Elmshorn until 23 October We would like to seize the opportunity to present some of our current elite selection’s highly interesting young talents: Dublin – 4-year-old gelding by Diarado – Canto Dublin is in the early training stages and stands out for his impressive ability responsiveness and trainability and his top performance attitude complete the picture of this promising prospect Cointreau – 6-year-old gelding by Corrado I – Caletto I This striking son of Corrado I has first results in young jumper classes to L level in Austria Cointreau is particularly desirable for his outstanding jumping ability and his quick reactions and promising jumping technique We believe him a true talent well suited for truly ambitious riders Camporados – 3-year-old colt by Companiero – Carlos DZ Demonstrating exceptional free jumping talent we believe this athletic three-year-old Companiero son to be a horse with above average potential is a FEI show jumper successfully shown by Swiss rider Christina Liebherr Consoto –4-year-old stallion by Cancara – Larno is a particular promising jumping talent in our collection dynamic and with tremendous jumping ability A particular recommendation for show hunting For more highly promising hunter prospects in our current elite selection (including video) GO HERE - first public presentation of the auction horses Horses may be tried under saddle afterwards - final training last opportunity for clients to jump the horses 14 – 23 October 2015 daily training involving the opportunity for individual test and training sessions For further information about the auction horses or to arrange your individual training session We are looking forward to meeting you at Elmshorn On 1 November you will have another opportunity to secure a dressage horse with Holsteiner bloodlines at the 2014 Holsteiner Elite Riding Horse Auction in Elmshorn the Holsteiner Verband dressage horse selection comprises two highly promising Lot 127 La Boheme by Lantino x Esteban xx x  Lord Calidos The auction team presents you with an outstanding talent blessed with three exceptional basic gaits La Boheme has already chalked up first achievements in ridden classes and was successfully mare performance tested at an average score of 8.67 La Boheme’s half brother is successfully shown in young event horse classes 117 Camou Flage by Clarimo x Chello I x Coriander This big-framed chestnut charmer is immediately attractive as he is characterized by ample movement and outstanding riding horse traits.
