Fordon TSF by Upan la Jarthe AA - Matador. Another typical Trakehner "young horse" story. Fordon and his rider, Heika Hänel, started out with the Bundeschampionat in Warendrof, and had a list of great successes at intermediate and adnavnced levels over the years, going internationally. The Trakehner Förderverein awarded them the "TSF" title like some others, who spread the word of Trakehners in competition. Fordon TSF is a prime exmaple of the athleticismand trainability paired with beauty that the breed stands for. Photo by Jacques Toffi.

Kunta Kinte TSF by Fontainbleau-Sacramento Song xx. He was the Bundeschampion in 2001, ridden by Olympic rider Peter Thomsen, former rider of White Girl TSF. In the meantime, the pair placed and won at CCI** and CCI*** level and is heading for another strong season in 2006 with recent placings in Bredeneek/Holstein. Kunta Kinte TSF is one of the most consistent horses at CIC formats in Germany for the past years. His full sister Karama M was the reserve Bundeschampion in the 5 year old division the year that her borther won, and continues to show both in show jumping as well as eventing at intermediate levels with Beeke Kaak.

Prätorius by Brandy xx out of Pasewalk by Morgenglanz. Under Klosterhof Medingen's owner Burkhard Wahler, this bay gelding won the German National Eventing Championships and was a leading event horse of his time. Prätorius is still alive today and serves as school master for the Wahler kids.

Ruprecht by Donaumonarch out of Rockefellina by EH Consul. Ruprecht was developed for a dressage career as he showed great talent for this sport and excelled easily. When owner Insa and Hilmer Ruprecht (hence the name!) found out about the bay geldings love for eventing however, he was placed with Andreas Dibowski where he quickly learned his new job and excelled as well. Ruprecht had a most promising start at his first CIC shows when an accident in the pasture left him unable to compete for over 2 years. Back in competition in 2003, he won and placed at CIC** and *** level and debuted at the long format later that year. Today, he serves as a trusted teacher for young rider Jennifer Krüger.
