Portrait - Success has its roots!

“Rheinland”-area.

Even to date she claims a prestigious 150 1st prices in the FEI-levels all the way up to Grand Prix Special. From 1995- 2000 she used to be a member of the German dressage longlist, called “B-Kader”.

The virtually ideal combination between Sabines´ genes and the high profile education through her equestrian parents, form the fertile basis for the realization of her professional aspirations.

At first she set out to train and show young prospects and though she worked out of her parents facility close to the city of Aachen, she remained independent, both in riding and economically. Sabine repeatedly qualified horses for one of Germanys most prestigious cups called Nürnberger Burgpokal, a class designed exclusively for 7-9 year olds on Prix St. George level. So far amongst them where the horses Alassio, Deauville, Weltfuerst and Derby.

HER FATHER

Hans Rueben
He was very successfully under way as a Grand Prix jumper rider before he first made himself a name as a competitive dressage rider and trainer. When he competed for the first time at the CHIO Aachen in 1979 on Metropolis he instantly won the Grand Prix Special in front of Harry Boldt with Lido and the FEI freestyle together with Christine Stückelberger.

Mainly influenced by the training of the well-known dressage trainers Georg Wahl and Harry Boldt he trained numerous horses all the way up to Grand Prix and was longlisted in Germany´s “B-Kader” for many years. At the 1989 World Cup final in Gothenburg he participated on Schiwago and in 1994 he won the “Rheinland” championships with Rosario. Many 1st prizes and high rankings in Grand Prix, Grand Prix Special and Grand Prix Freestyle contribute to his exceptional expertise as a successful trainer.

Nowadays he devotes himself to the education of young horses and riders.
