Hanoverian Jumper Breeding Program (PHS)

In 1993, the Hanoverian Jumping Breeding Program (Programm Hannoveraner Springpferdezucht – PHS) was initiated. The aim of this breeding program is to give new impetus to the breeding of show jumping horses. Part oft the Hanoverian population is specifically geared towards the breeding of exzellent show jumpers. It was updated in 2023. A system of awarding stars * to mares was introduced.

The free jumping competitions of the Hanoverian Jumper Breeding Program in March have been showcases for three- and four-year old talents since 1997. Numerous careers have already begun in the Niedersachsenhalle in Verden. Since 2024, only three-year-olds are presented in the free jumping. The four-year-olds show their talents under the rider.

Freispringwettbewerb

Für die Siegerin des Freispringwettbewerbs der Dreijährigen 2025 in Verden war es ein wahrhaft goldener Moment: Golden Moment M holte sich die gelbweiße Siegerschärpe. Beste Vierjährige im Eignungstest unter dem Sattel war Cobra Mad Joe.

40 Vertreter des Jahrganges 2021 traten beim Freispringen an, das von dem international erfolgreichen Springreiter Tim Rieskamp-Goedeking und Thomas Schönig vom Hannoveraner Verband gerichtet wurde. Schon die dritte Starterin Golden Moment M v. Grey Top/Comte (Z. u. Ausst.: Peter Mahler, Neuhaus) setzte mit 26,3 Punkten eine Marke, die nicht mehr erreicht werden sollte. Schon ihre Mutter Hann.Pr.St. Coco M stand als Siegerin der Herwart von der Decken-Schau und dritte des Freispringwettbewerbs in Verden im Rampenlicht. Lohn für die ausgezeichnete Leistung war ein Deckgeldgutschein des Landgestüts Celle. Den Sieg in der zweiten Abteilung trug die schneeweiße Carridam/Grey Top-Tochter Crushed Ice PJ (Z. u. Ausst.: Pferdezucht Dr. Jacobs GbR, Bierbergen) mit 26,2 Punkten davon und verhalf ihren Züchtern zu einem weiteren großen Erfolg beim Verdener Freispringwettbewerb.

Zum zweiten Mal maßen sich die Vierjährigen im Eignungstest unter dem Sattel. Cobra Mad Joe v. Cabo Verde/Stakkato (Z.: Jochen Meyer, Allwörden) tat es ihrem Vollbruder Cabo Mad Jo gleich und holte sich den Sieg. Wie im vergangenen Jahr wurde die Dunkelbraune gekonnt von Hergen Forkert in Szene gesetzt. Zweiter wurde Calicos PJ v. Calido/Silvio (Z. u. Ausst.: Pferdezucht Dr. Jacobs GbR, Bierbergen) mit Annika Ebert, Dritte die Highway M TN/Canstakko-Tochter Highlight B (Z. u. Ausst.: Wilfried Berg, Burgdorf), den Kilian Römer vorstellte. Der Sieger freute sich über einen Deckgeldgutschein der Hengststation Dirk Ahlmann, Reher. Die höchste Wertnote bei den fünfjährigen Vielseitigkeitspferden erzielte Granne v. Gentleman/Avagon (Z.: Dr. Korinna Lemke, Aerzen) mit Züchertochter Lotta Lemke im Sattel.
