2008 CDI-W Frankfurt
Isabell Werth and Satchmo won the World Cup Qualifier at the 2008 CDI-W Frankfurt. In addition Werth and the Westfalian El Santo (by Ehrentusch) won the 2008 Nurnberg Burgpokal Finals.
Though Werth herself has aimed for the title with Der Stern, she had to scratch that horse for the final round due to a swelling to his leg. Werth still won with the bay El Santo, called "Ernie" at home.
Dutch Diederik van Silfhout won the 2008 FEI Young Rider World Cup Final.

Kittel and Floresco not on best form. They started the season so well in Münster in January, but the 10-year old has made so many miles this season and at the end of the season he lacked spark. We hope to see them on form again in 2009.

Klimke was the favourite for the 2008 Nurnberger Burgpokal title, but in the finals, the Westfalian stallion lacked some collection in the canter despite the fact that the trot was outstanding.

Ingrid Klimke, whose hands are always picture-perfect, demonstrated that for her, diversity in the training of a horse is not just a phrase.

Open mouths, blue tongues, bad connection. It also happened in Frankfurt. Holga Finken asked for Rusty's score to be struck from the record because the horse slipped his tongue over the bit.
