Palmenblüte Award

Donated by Eugen Wahler of Klosterhof Medingen, FRG, in 1978, it is a perpetual trophy awarded to the ATA purebred Trakehner who has contributed the most in competition to promote the breed in North America.  It can only be won twice by an individual horse. 

This award is named in honor of the mare Palmenblüte (by Bulgarenzar, out of Palme by Packer-Wolf), foaled in 1924.  This mare was named the best broodmare in the Trakehner breed and champion broodmare of all warmblood breeds in Germany prior to World War II. In the early years of the trophy, Trakehner crosses were also eligible, but now that there are larger numbers of purebreds on this continent Mr. Wahler has restricted the trophy to purebreds.

Mr. Wahler retired the first trophy to the stallion Abdullah in 1986 after he won the award for the fifth time.  In doing so, Mr. Wahler acknowledged Abdullah's great contributions to the Trakehner breed not only in North America, but throughout the world.  When donating the new trophy, Mr. Wahler specified that in the future the trophy should not be awarded to the same horse more than once.  In recent years, after the death of Mr. Wahler, it became obvious that we needed an exception to the "one time only" rule because of special situations.  The descendants of Eugen Wahler have kindly allowed us to change the rule so that a horse may win the award twice but not three times.
