The 5-year old Dutch warmblood stallion Cennin and the 6-year old Rhinelander stallion Sir Fashion won the Bundeschampionate qualification classes held at the Rhinelander Regional Championships in Langenfeld, Germany, on Thursday 21 June 2012. Twenty-six horses in total assembled at Langenfeld for the L- and M-level Dressage Horse Test.
In the 5-year old division the Dutch warmblood stallion Cennin (by Vivaldi x Donnerhall) and his Roermond based Dutch rider Stephanie Peters scored the highest points and won the L-level division with 8.2. The chestnut stallion received 8s for walk, canter and submission and 8.5 for trot and general impression. Even though Cennin scored high enough points to go to Warendorf, he has not qualified as only German bred horses are allowed to compete at the Bundeschampionate. Former European pony champion Lydia Camp and the Westfalian mare Felice (by Furst Piccolo x Ehrentanz) became second with 8.0. The bay mare got 7.5 for submission, 8s for trot, canter and general impression and 8.5 for walk. Laura Stigler and the Hanoverian gelding Doubleyou W (by Don Romantic x Rohdiamant) tied on second place with 8.0. This pair earned 7.5 for submission, 9s for walk, canter and general impression and 8.5 for trot.
