In 2012 the German Foal Championate will take place for the 12th time and has become a firmly established top breeding event. The concept is based on qualifications taking place all over Germany. Breeders of Jumping and Dressage horses as well as riding ponies of all breeding areas and federal states get the chance to participate in one or several qualifications and get one of the coveted 'tickets' to be able to take part in the final in Lienen.
Foals of all different brands can participate at the qualifications. Every breeder is free to chose the venue, in the normal case it will be the place which is closest to his own breeding site. The best 25% foals will qualify for the final taking place in Lienen.
Each year, many prospective customers find their way to Lienen to look for new talented foals for their own stable. Initiator and main sponsor of the event are the LMV Insurances who are sponsoring Horse Breeding in Germany.
