Professional dressage rider Uwe Schwanz has dominated the Bavarian Bundeschampionate qualifier in Weiden the weekend of June 11-13, 2004.
Aboard Florestano and Rockbarton he claimed first and second place in the 5-year old division, qualifying both horses for Warendorf as he scored 8.2 and 8.0. He won the class with Florestano, a Westfalian Florestan offspring and placed second with Rockbarton, a Bavarian bred Rivero II son.
In the six-year old division no horse scored higher than 8.0, so none of the riders qualified for the Bundeschampionate. The winner of the class, however, was Alix Denkhaus on Count Bassie, a Baden Wurttemberger Calido son. The combination scored 7.5
