German young horse professional Sina Aringer has been invited as test rider for the 4-year old championship at the 2026 Swedish Warmblood Young Horse Championships.
The "SWB Equestrian Weeks" take place in Flyinge on 26 September - 4 October 2026
“Working with young horses is something I am truly passionate about, and I look forward to discovering the quality, talent, and potential of the Swedish Warmblood horses," said Aringer. "It will be a pleasure to contribute my experience while meeting breeders, owners, and riders from across Sweden.
The 34-year old Aringer has worked at several of the Germany's most respected dressage establishments. She completed her training at Hof Kasselmann, later worked for breeder Stephan Borgmann, and then for Ulf and Eva Möller. She has built her own business and is currently based at the Löffeld family’s equestrian facility in Lienen.
“We are delighted to welcome Sina Aringer as this year’s test rider,” said Anette Graf, CEO of SWB. “It is especially exciting because we have received so many strong recommendations for her from Germany, a country with an impressive number of talented riders and young horse trainers. The fact that so many people have highlighted Sina gives us great confidence that she will bring valuable experience and perspectives to the final for the 4-year-old dressage horses.”
Sina has achieved significant success in young horse championships. Among her most notable accomplishments are winning the 2020 Bundeschampionate for 4-year-old stallions with Fynch Hatton, the 2023 Bundeschampionat for 3-year-old mares and geldings with Barbor BS, and the 2024 Bundeschampionate for 3-year-old mares and geldings with Seniorita la Bonita.
