Horses

His most notable horses were the three Holsteiner stallion Silver Lake , Calypso II and Caletto I . Rüping also brought the stallion Calvaro Z , later presented internationally by Michael Whitaker and Jos Lansink , into the sport.

Rüping and the Holstein association stallion Silbersee were one of the most successful couples of the 1980s, the two of them had their heyday between 1982 and 1988.

Soon after the derby victory in Hamburg, Silbersee was sold to Sweden and Rüping's competitive sports career came to an end.
