Christian Ahlmann: "Caribis is ready for big things now..."

Ahlmann’s record at Leipzig is quite something. This was his seventh win at the fixture which celebrates its 22nd anniversary this year. “Caribis jumped very, very well - the course really suited him, the short distances were good for me so that was our luck today!” Ahlmann said.

“He’s always been a bit in the shadow of Taloubet and Codex, but he’s taken a huge step forward over the last season and he’s ready for big things now. He jumps really light and he’s very quick in a jump-off, he’s a very sporty horse!” he said of the stallion he knows well, because they’ve been a partnership for the last five years.
