On Sunday, the Partner Pferd Leipzig came to an end, an event that attracted a large audience and confirmed its prestige in the international equestrian scene.
The stands dedicated to Prestige and Renaissance were particularly appreciated, drawing numerous visitors thanks not only to the quality of the products on display but also to exclusive Meet&Greet with two icons of Prestige: Sandra Auffarth, (Rubino MF AS-X), and Daniel Deusser, (Rubino MF AS-X). Sandra Auffarth signed autographs and met fans at the Sattlerei und Reitsportzubehör Mario Schipler stand – Hall 1 Stand B18, while Daniel Deusser was present at the Sattlerei Büttner stands – Hall 1 Stands B02 and B03. The enthusiasm of the audience was evident in the long lines to meet the champions, making these sessions a great success.
The event saw our ambassadors stand out with excellent results in high-level competitions. In the Preis Von Uvex Sport CSI 5* (1.45m), Hans-Dieter Dreher claimed third place with Forpleasure du Moulin (X-Perience), followed by Geir Gulliksen, fifth on Oh la La van Overis (Renaissance F2 S), and Hannes Ahlmann, ninth with Tokyo 4 (Renaissance M). Katrin Eckermann, riding Chao Lee (Renaissance F2 S), achieved an outstanding second place in the CSI 5* (1.45m) IDEE KAFFEE-Preis.
In the Grand Prix of the Longines FEI Jumping World Cup™ presented by Sparkasse, our riders once again demonstrated their skills. Hans-Dieter Dreher took third place with Elysium (X-Perience), while Martin Fuchs, on Conner Jei (Renaissance F2 S), secured fifth place. They were followed by Johan-Sebastian Gulliksen, sixth with Equine America Harwich VDL (Renaissance F2 S), Daniel Deusser, eighth with Gangster v/h Noddevelt (Rubino MF AS-X), and Marco Kutscher, twelfth with Aventador S (X-Meredith).
A particularly emotional moment was the Prestige Goldener Sattel In Memoriam Hans Günter Winkler. During this special competition, a Prestige X-Perience saddle (in its new version) was awarded to the talented winner Naomi Himmelreich, paying tribute to the memory of an equestrian legend and highlighting the bond between tradition and innovation that defines our brand.
Our riders are shining not only in European circuits but also on other continents. Christian Kukuk, riding Just Be Gentle (X-Perience MD), achieved an excellent position in the Palm Beach Equine Clinic National Grand Prix.
Furthermore, Janne Friederike Meyer-Zimmermann, with Iron Dames Dubai Du Centre (Renaissance F), claimed second place in the Grand Prix CSI4* (1.55m) at the Doha International Equestrian Tour 2025.
