DressageHub | Totilas Offspring On Top: Total Hope Win the 2021 Louisdor Cup Finals @DressageHub | Uploaded December 2021 | Updated October 2024, 20 hours ago.
Norwegian Isabel Freese and the Danish-German owned Total Hope became the winners of the 2021 Louisdor Cup Finals, the German Developing Grand prix Horse Championships, which took place at Gestut Schafhof in Kronberg on 18 - 19 December 2021.
Six qualifiers were held throughout Germany the spring and summer season and the top two placed pairs of each qualifier were eligible to compete at the Finals in Frankfurt.
Total Hope Reigns Again
After winning the Nurnberger Burgpokal Finals for Developing Prix St Georges Horses and the bronze medal at the World Young Horse Championships in 2019, Freese and the now 9-year old Oldenburg licensed stallion Total Hope convincingly won the warm-up Intermediaire II with 75.419% and dominated the actual Finals, the classic Grand Prix test, posting a score of 77.540%.
The finals were judged by the German 5* panel including Elke Ebert, Ulrike Nivelle, Evi Eisenhardt, Katrina Wüst, and Henning Lehrmann and they unanimously placed Total Hope first. The marks ranged between 76.70% and 78.10%.
Hope is a clear merger and mirror reflection in conformation of his sire Totilas crossed with international Grand Prix mare Weihegold (by Don Schufro x Sandro Hit). He is bred by Christine Arns-Krogman and was acquired by Paul Schockemohle as a youngster. He spent his first years as a breeding stallion in Sweden. He was the most used dressage stallion in Sweden in 2015. He became the 2016 Swedish Warmblood Stallion Performance Test winner. Total Hope returned to Germany in the autumn of 2017. At the beginning of 2018 Danish stallion owner Lone Boegh Henriksen purchased the half ownership share from Schockemöhle. Swedish Pernilla Andre Hokfelt rode him to an 8th place at the 2018 World Young Horse Championships in Ermelo, after which the ride on the stallion went to Freese.
In 2021, Freese competed Total Hope in several S*** classes at five national competitions in Appelhulsen, Herzlake, Kronberg, Haftenkamp and Munich. Most recently she did the Test of Choice with him in Ankum before heading to Kronberg for the Louisdor Cup Finals.
"He has an incredible talent for everything, nothing is difficult to him," said Freese "I'm mega happy. We only rode the (classic) Grand Prix test once but it's still new to us. That he peaked here, worked for me, makes me speechless. The canter tour is truly exceptional. This weekend surpassed all my expectations."
The Norwegian Isabel Freese (née Bache) was thrilled with the result and is aiming to qualify Total Hope for the 2022 World Championships in Herning.
