Maria Eilberg Wins the British Horse Feeds Advanced Medium Open Winter Championship

 

Redditch-based Maria Eilberg and the eight-year-old black stallion Woodlander Rockstar were on top form at the Winter Dressage Championships securing first place in the British Horse Feeds Advanced Medium Open Winter Championship with a high score of 68.95%.

The stunning Hannoverian stallion is British-Bred by Rotspun out of Savannah and owned by Lynne Crowden of the Woodlander Stud. The pair were first to go and held the lead to the end of the competition.

Said Maria: "It was a long wait until the end of the class, I'm so happy that we held onto it!"

"On the whole he was very relaxed. In one canter half-pass he was holding a bit and looking but other than that I was happy with the test," explained Maria.

The partnership has recently enjoyed success on the Spanish Sunshine Tour winning several owners' classes and now have an important year ahead of them as they move up to Pre St Georges level.
