She has just been crowned as the World Champion of the 5-year-old horses. Quinn G (by Quaterhit / Fassbinder, bred by Stutteri G - Helene Geervliet) is a mare with lovely power, graceful balance, and impressive self-confidence, which she showed the judges at the World Championship for Young Horses last week. She went around in the arena easily and with a lot of surpluses. She was rewarded with nothing less than 9,7 in trot, 8,5 in walk, 9,5 in canter, 9,7 in submission and a 10 in perspective - A true World Champion!
It's not the first time Quinn G has been rewarded as a champion. She was the true winner of the Young Horse Championship in Herning earlier this year, where test rider Cathrine Dufour enjoyed the ride and gave her a score of 10 in both rideability and capacity.
Now it's time for Fiona Bigwood, the British Olympic team silver medal rider, to take over the reins of this outstanding mare from Betina Jæger. We are super proud to handover one of the best young dressage horses in the world to one of the best riders in the world. We are sure this is a perfect match.
"I tried Quinn G, and from the first steps, I was sure, I needed to own this mare. She possesses endless power, balance, and rideability. She gives the feeling, that she has no limits, and you just want to stay in the saddle. I am super excited about the future, and hope that we one day will enter the big arenas. She is one of the best young horses, I have ever ridden" states Fiona Bigwood.
Betina enjoyed the journey with Quinn G:
''She is one of a kind. She is so special, and I had enjoyed every ride. I am so happy, that I got that opportunity, and I think, that we finished in the best possible way! She is not just special to ride; she is also a super sweet and curious horse in the stable. My groom, Signe, loves her too'' says Betina.
"I'm looking forward to see, what Fiona can achieve together with Quinn G, because this horse has no weaknesses, that's for sure" states Andreas Helgstrand.
