Helgstrand Sends Fiontini to Patrik Kittel

Danish horse dealer Andreas Helgstrand has decided to pass on the ride on his 2021 Tokyo Olympic hopeful Fiontini to Swedish colleague Patrik Kittel.

Fiontini is an 11-year old Danish warmblood mare by Fassbinder x Romanov. She is bred by Hanne Lund and Henrik Hansen.

Sold to Sweden

Under Spanish Severo Jurado Lopez the dark bay mare won gold at the 2015 and 2016 World Championships for Young Dressage Horses in Verden and Ermelo

In 2016 Swedish young rider Beata Soderberg bought the then 6-year old mare as her future horse, but Severo Jurado Lopez retained the ride at the time.

Jurado and Fiontini completed a hattrick and won the 2017 World Young Horse Championships in Ermelo.
