Episode list

Alexandra Winkler lives in a working-class district of Vienna, works in a bread factory and saves for her dream: her own bakery. When the 23-year-old orphan found out that she was the illegitimate daughter of a deceased squire and inherited the Hochstetten Trakehner stud farm from him, it all seemed like a dream from which she would soon wake up rudely. Their half-siblings Maximilian, Silvia and Leander can hardly believe that they were passed over when it came to the family inheritance. Spokesman Maximilian, who manages the estate, threatens Alexandra to challenge the will and makes her a "generous" offer: 200,000 euros on hand if she gives up immediately. What the surprised heiress does not know: she would not be fobbed off enough with 200,000 euros, and Maximilian has his back to the wall. He invested his late father's entire fortune in a multi-million dollar secret project. While Maximilian is waiting for Alexandra's signature, she fights for the life of the stallion "Dezember", who was injured in an incident. Alexandra finds a soul mate in the free-roaming horse, which as a half-bred does not enjoy the status of a purebred Trakehner. To save him, she must muster the courage to stand up to her new family.

What the surprised heiress does not know: she would not be fobbed off enough with 200,000 euros, and Maximilian has his back to the wall. He invested his late father's entire fortune in a multi-million dollar secret project. While Maximilian is waiting for Alexandra's signature, she fights for the life of the stallion "Dezember", who was injured in an incident. Alexandra finds a soul mate in the free-roaming horse, which as a half-bred does not enjoy the status of a purebred Trakehner. To save him, she must muster the courage to stand up to her new family.

Alexandra Winkler accepts her inheritance: The young factory employee wants to find out why her deceased father entrusted her with the huge Trakehner stud farm. In order to bring her to her knees, her half-brother Maximilian resigns as administrator and lets his unscrupulous henchman Moser instigate a staff strike.

Nobody now takes care of the hungry breeding horses, which the horse owners quickly notice and increases the pressure on Alexandra. With the help of her friends Paula, Tilda and Raphael, Alexandra just manages to keep the business running. Meanwhile, Maximilian and his lover Margarethe are pursuing their secret plan to bring an exclusive horse show to Hochstetten. However, the meeting with the influential sports manager Laszlo Turin makes it clear: you have to win the inheritance dispute as soon as possible. While Maximilian is willing to use any means and even secretly commissions a DNA comparison, his mother Marie wants to let the past rest at all costs. But through the impressions at Gut Hochstetten, Alexandra, who grew up with adoptive parents, is now also beginning to deal with her own story.

Sole heiress Alexandra and her half-brother Maximilian now run the Hochstetten Stud together. However, he lets the less befitting landlady feel at every opportunity who is really in charge of the business. He doesn't even let her in on the secret plan to organize an international horse show at the stud farm. His two siblings, Leander and Silvia, who happen to meet Laszlo Turin, an official at the horse show, still know nothing about the high-risk project. Only his lover Margarethe knows that Maximilian wants to get rid of the Köhlerhof at any price.

Because he is not making any progress with the renovation of the farm, Maximilian is under doubly pressure: District Councilor Holzleitner doubts Maximilian's ability to assert himself and the house bank, alarmed by the inheritance dispute, also reports initial doubts about the success of the investments. Before bank director Havelka turns on the money tap for Hochstetten again, he wants to make an on-site visit to see for himself. When Maximilian drops out due to a riding accident, Alexandra of all people has to represent his plans. To demonstrate leadership and loyalty, she makes a painful decision.

Alexandra Winkler now knows why she of all people - an orphan who only recently worked in a Viennese bread factory and didn't even know she was the daughter of a landowner - inherited the proud Hochstetten Trakehner stud farm. The young woman is supposed to prevent her half-brother Maximilian's risky plan to bring a horse show worth millions to Hochstetten and implement a special legacy. In her mother's house she finds a book manuscript that would revolutionize horse riding. In order to implement this legacy, Alexandra tries to persuade her half-siblings Silvia and Leander to make the Trakehner stud farm the starting point for a new riding style with her. In fact, she manages to get Leander on her side: He wants to compete against his overpowering brother at the Derby with the half-bred December to show that the horse-friendly way of riding is superior. Maximilian, on the other hand, would like to use this stage to convince the top-class commission of sports manager Laszlo Turin to bring the coveted Royal Grand Prix to Hochstetten. The fact that his lover Margarethe could have her own plans catches him completely unprepared.
