The 5-year olds Balia, Fürst von Soest and Arango, and the 6-year old Brianna showed power by winning the Bundeschampionate qualification classes for dressage horses at the 2017 Westfalian Regional Championships in Münster-Handorf, Germany, on 25 and 28 July 2017.
In the 5-year old division, the horses were split into two groups.
