It's "only" around 30% of Icelandics involved in competition in Germany - the rest belong to leisure riders. But as a sort of highprofile person himself, he probably went to someone high profile on the Icelandic scene - ie a competition rider. Saying that, most German competition horses I've met have been very laid back, certainly to handle.
