Our amateur championship 2026 has been decided \u2013 this time three gentlemen take all the medal places among the \u201csaddle artists\u201d. Kevin Braye (20 points) repeated his win of the previous year, followed, as in 2025, by Swen Stra\u00dfmeier (17); third place went to Pedro Martins Goncalves (13).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This year\u2019s Bavarian amateur championship came to a close with a sprint: in the Preis vom Schloss T\u00fcssling (handicap IV over 1,300 m), Amazing Luna (starting price 5.2:1) from Michael Figge\u2019s stable scored a comfortable one-and-a-half-length win over Bocca di Lupo under Kevin Braye; Repute with Janina Boysen followed in third. Amazing Luna\u2019s France-based rider, Thomas Guineheux, thus turned his very first ride in Munich into a victory. Amazing Luna is owned by Stall Ehrhardt, who were able to celebrate their first outright success in racing. With his second place, Kevin Braye pushed Swen Stra\u00dfmeier \u2013 who had led the standings until then \u2013 back into second, as Stra\u00dfmeier could only finish sixth with Grey Darling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The 2026 trainers\u2019 title went to Gerald Geisler in Iffezheim. Among the owners, Stall Hernstein, also based in Iffezheim, came out on top in the final reckoning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To mark the Fegentri world championship qualifier for female amateur riders, which also took place on 24 October, there was a convivial celebration in our Wirtshaus zur Rennbahn in the evening. On that occasion, this year\u2019s Bavarian champions were honoured by BVAR president Andrea Schneider and received handsome and useful trophies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
