Following a training seminar with German Junior and Young riders' team trainer Hans-Heinrich Meyer zu Strohen in Zeiskam, Germany, twenty-four southern based German riders have been selected to participate in the 2013 Preis der Besten qualifier held in Kronberg, Germany.
Several new juniors, who competed their ponies last year, have moved to the junior divisions and are making their mark in a new category. 2012 German pony team rider Lena Charlotte Walterscheidt is presenting her horse Solist, while long-time German young riders' team horse Habitus is now being competed by former pony rider Johanne Pauline von Danwitz. Constantin Pistner is now showing Bianca Nowag's 2012 European Championship mount Dauerbrenner.
