Dorothee Schneider wins on Max-Theurer’s Fackeltanz OLD
18th Manfred Swarovski Memorial Tournament CDI4* 12 to 14 July 2013 www.schindlhof.at www.facebook.com/Schindlhof Media Release 13 July 2013 Dorothee Schneider wins on Max-Theurer’s Fackeltanz OLD Dorothee Schneider struck back in the Small Tour: After 2nd place in the Prix St. Georges behind Stefanie Palm, who celebrated the first Tyrolean victory on Schindlhof after 18 years, the Amazons switched places in today’s Intermediaire I. The German Olympic silver medalist scored elegant 73.342 percent on Fackeltanz OLD, an 8-year-old Oldenburg stallion owned by Olympic champion Elisabeth Max-Theurer. Yesterday immediately after her ride in the Prix St. Georges, which earned her 2nd place, Dorothee Schneider hurried towards Innsbruck airport to catch her flight to Frankfurt and thus missed the award ceremony; today last year’s winner of the GP and the GP Freestyle on Schindlhof was happy to have time to stay. “Now I can really enjoy the tournament here,“ the athlete from Framersheim said. Yesterday, after her arrival in Frankfurt, the dressage trainer drove 230 kilometers from the airport to Perl-Borg, a town in Saarland near the border to Luxembourg, to ride horses on Peterhof, with which she will participate there in next week’s CDI4*. And then she had to get all the way back to Fritzens. High costs? “When I do something, then I want to get it done properly.“ Right! A good example: winning the Intermediaire with her personal best of 73.342 percent with the agile 8-year-old stallion Fackeltanz OLD. “Yesterday in the St. Georges we made two or three small mistakes. Today Fackeltanz was very focused. Considering his age of 8 years, he is very confident.“ Dorothee Schneider was full of praise considering the potential of the Oldenburg stallion that is owned by Elisabeth Max-Theurer.
