The highest placing nation / Affiliate will receive a $ 500 cheque. The NRHA would like to thank the following Corporate Partners for their support of the NRHA European Affiliate Championship: Classic Equine, Montana Silversmiths, Rios of Mercedes / Anderson Bean Boot Company and Bob’s Custom Saddles, the official saddle of NRHA.

First two classes of the NRHA European Affiliate Championship!

This EC is another milestone for Cira Baeck (BEL), who has got her second Open season this year. Aboard the 10-year-old flashy Palomino stallion Peek A Boom (Boomernic x The Great Escape) owned by Eifel Gold Ranch, she claimed the Int. Open European Champion Titel and also the Co-Reserve Champion title aboard Gump Wasa Gambler BB (Little Gump x Ir Country Storm, owner Zoey Kant).As the first rider, Cira whose LTE are clo-se to $ 400,000 and who was two times

and Co-Res. Champion

NRHA World Champion Non Pro and three times NRHA Non Pro European Champion, scored a 219 with Gump Wasa Gambler BB. The fourth rider Aldo Loren-zoni (ITA) and Hispanico (Spanish Snap-per x Jody Frecles Bar, owner Silvia Fri-geri) earned the same score. None of the following riders could beat that, so that a run off seemed possible. But Cira had two more horses in this class, and with her last horse Peek A Boom she risked everything. Fine spins (especially the one to the right

which received +1), circles and stops ear-ned her a 220.5. With Peek A Boom, Cira Baeck was 2008 Non Pro World Champi-on and earned team silver at the WEG in Kentucky.“I’m really happy with him,” said Cira. “We bought him as a 2-year-old from Bill Horn. I showed him in the States first and then here in Europe in many major events. This show was the first time I showed him this year, as he is breeding. Peek A Boom was really sweet in the pen. We needed

this success to earn the last missing dollars to surpass his $ 100,000 LTE. And we did it!” Cira and Gump Wasa Gambler BB also tied for second place with Aldo Lorenzoni and Hispanico. Gump Wasa Gambler BB is an 8-year old gelding which was bred by Cira Baeck. With this horse, she was 2012 NRHA Breeders Derby Open Res. Champion. With the 9-year-old American Quarter Horse gelding Hispanico, Aldo Lorenzoni won the IRHA Novice Horse Open and the Intermediate Open at the 2011 ITRHA Fu-turity. Aldo Lorenzoni works at La Meridi-ana Quarter Horses Training Facility in Lo-nate, Como - Italy. Since 1999, he has been a finalist in all major events in Italy. Aldo was Reserve Champion Open at the 2004 NRHA European Affiliate Championship.

Statement Dan WallIt is a pleasure to welcome NRHA Executive Director Dan Wall once more in Wiener Neu-stadt. What are his first impres-sions of the event? “It is always good to come back to Helmut’s and Dennis’ place. This is one of the best facilities for reining in Europe. Helmut and his staff are always doing an excellent job. All of them are really wor-king hard – not only to put on a good show together with Mela-nie, but also to provide fun and activities for the riders and their families. And it is exciting to see the huge increase of entries this year. I’m looking forward to the next days, and wish best luck to everybody.”

Last year they were Reserve Champion in Intermediate Non Pro – this year Gunners Enterprise and 15-year-old Gina-Maria claimed the NRHA European Champion title in this division for Switzerland. In a field of 27, the two scored a 219 earning plus points in almost every maneuvre. Gunners Enterprise is an 8-year-old Bay Overo American Quarter Horse / American Paint Horse stallion by Colonels Smokin Gun out of My Royal Enterprise. The stal-lion with NRHA LTE of over $ 22,000 was 2007 Congress Futurity Intermediate Open Finalist and Carolina Classic ABI Futurity Champion, 2008 Florida Classic Derby Co Champion, Italian Derby Open and Inter-mediate Open Finalist 2008 and 2009, Ita-lian Maturity Intermediate Open Reserve Champion 2009 and Rein O Mania 4 yo Futurity Champion. With Gina-Maria in the saddle, the horse won the Intermedi-ate Non Pro at the 2011 NRHA European Futurity and the 2012 23 Classic. “I’m so happy,” Gina-Maria said afterwards. “We worked very hard for the last three months, and Gunners Enterprise got better and bet-ter. He was simply great. But without my Mom and our trainer Shauna Larcombe we would not have come so far.“Two riders tied for second place: Fenna Elzinga (NED) aboard Smoking Kills and Jessica Sternberg (GBR) aboard Spook A Little, both scoring a 218. Smoking Kills is a 6-year-old stallion by Lil Dry Peppy out of Gun Smoke Dennis which was bred by Torsten Tiemann. Fenna got the horse in 2007. Their achievements include the NRHA Breeders Futurity Champion and DQHA Reining Futurity Champion title in 2009, third at the 2011 FEI World Reining Finals (Restr. Div.) and NRHA European Champion Intermediate Non Pro 2009 and 2011.Spook a Little (Smart Spook x Jessie Wright On) was bred by Jessica’s mother Rosanne Sternberg. The 6-year-old stallion was 2009 NRHA Breeders Futurity SBH

Another big success for the 7-year-old stallion Whizoom: after winning the Intermediate Open with Alessia Vin-cenzi in the saddle (144), the Topsail Whiz-son proved his class again the next day – this time in the rookie with his owner Jennifer Nixdorf. The two had a fine run earning plus points in the

Nikolaus Selinger (AUT) and Obsidian Jac placed second scoring a 140..It was not the first success of Jennifer and Whizoom, who had NRHA LTE of more than $ 27,000 before the show

and was e.g. NRHA European Futurity Champion Ltd. Open. In 2011, Jenni-fer, who trains with Rudi Kronsteiner now, won the Youth with this horse at the EquitaLyon in France and also placed well in the Non Pro Trophy. At the IRHA-NRHA Derby they placed 5th in Novice Horse Non Pro Lev.2.
