1993 Hannovarian gelding, 17.3hh. “Hans”, an ex-showjumper, only started his dressage career at the age of 8. Since then he has been a consistent performer in Ireland and abroad competing up to International Grand Prix level winning 6 Irish National Championship Titles and five top ten placings at International Big Tour level.
Since retiring from Grand Prix level with Anne Marie, Hans has been ridden to more successes by two of Ireland's up and coming talents. In 2009, Hans and Anthony Byrne represented Ireland at the Young Rider European Championships in Holland, and returned to win the National PSG Kur and U25 Titles at the Irish National Championships. In 2010 Hans continued his consistent form, winning the National Advanced Championship with junior rider Rachel Dowley.
