How to watch the Olympics - Danish DR2 with free streaming
There are a lot of different providers streaming from the Olympics.

The Olympic puzzle can start
Today Global Dressage Analytics made the list of entries for each group for the Grand Prix.
It is based on the relative World Dressage Ranking List (WDRL) positions of the actual starters (the version dated 30/06/2021); each rider is assigned a relative WDRL number in the range 1-60 and they are placed in starting positions as shown in the attached table (from the FEI Tokyo regulations). Then there are some corrections made to ensure no nation has more than one rider in a group, or more than two in a day.
The real list won’t be known till after the vet check (Friday July 23rd) and the team declaration.

Part of the FEI rules
The FEI Grand Prix test, in which all Athletes must participate, is the qualifying competition for the individual competition (FEI Grand Prix Freestyle) and the team competition (FEI Grand Prix Special to music).
Athletes compete in six (6) groups, with three (3) groups competing on the first day and the remaining three (3) groups on the second day. The composition of the groups are based on the FEI World Ranking List position of the Athlete/Horse combination on the date of definite entries (see Dressage Rules Article 456.1)
Two from each group, plus the next best six (6) ranked Athletes (overall best results) qualify for the FEI Grand Prix Freestyle. If a qualified Athlete/Horse drops out, the vacant spot is filled by the next best ranked Athlete.
In case of a tie, the highest and lowest total scores for each Athlete will be added and divided by two, with the highest score deciding on the tie. If the tie cannot be broken, the second highest and second lowest total scores for each Athlete will be added and divided by two with the highest score deciding on the tie. If the tie is still not broken, the third highest and third lowest total scores for each Athlete will be added and divided by two, with the highest score deciding on the tie. If the tie cannot be broken, it will be decided by a draw.
All Teams receive a qualification ranking after the FEI Grand Prix by adding up the three (3) results per team. The top eight (8) ranked Teams (including those tied for the 8th place), qualify for the Team competition, FEI Grand Prix Special to music.

De danske grooms er klar og på plads til næste etape af "OL Tokyo 2020"
Det danske groom team fra venstre: Frederikke Bjørnbirk (Bufranco), Ellen Glinvad Nielsen (Zack), Signe Baun (Danciera) og Emilie Olling (Bohemian) - privat foto.
Imorgen starter det danske team på næste og sidste etape mod OL i Tokyo
En stor del af de 4 ekvipager, som lige om lidt er klar til næste etape af OL - nemlig turen fra Aachen frem mod OL i Tokyo, er de 4 grooms for Bohemian, Heiline´s Danciera, Blue Hors Zack og Bufranco.
H2R har fanget de 4 unge damer til en lille “hvem er de 4 grooms”, og hvad har deres opgave været forud for OL udtagelsen - og nu her under karantæne opholdet i Aachen inden det går løs i Tokyo.
Ellen & Blue Hors Zack
Ellen er feltets mest erfarne groom og har været ansat på Blue Hors i 11 år, hvor hun har har været med ved bl.a. VM, EM og en masse andre store stævner.
“Det her er mit første OL, så det glæder jeg mig enormt meget til, og det skal nok blive en kæmpe oplevelse. Forberedelserne har været noget anderledes op til OL, end vi er vant til. Forberedelserne begyndte allerede i februar måned, selvom vi ikke vidste om vi skulle afsted. Og siden da, har vi fået en masse information omkring OL og har haft nogle møder om forskellige ting og forberedelserne. Så nu synes jeg ,vi er godt forberedte og klar til at tage afsted.
Karantænen i Aachen har naturligt gået med pasningen af hestene, og sørge for de har det godt hernede. Nanna har trænet både Zack og Orthilia, og ellers hygger vi med dem med gå ture og hygge i stalden. Men hestene får også plads til at slappe af og være sig selv. Her i karantænen har der også været tid til hygge for os grooms sammen med rytterne, hvor vi også tit har spist sammen. Nu venter vi egenligt bare på imorgen, hvor vi rejser til Tokyo som bliver en kæmpe oplevelse for os alle sammen. De sidste forberedelser inden vi skal sende hestene med flyet mod Tokyo er gået godt, og vores opgave er at holde hestene fit og friske, så de er klar til den langs flyve tur derover. Vi er klar og glæder os til at komme afsted”, slutter Ellen.
Emilie & Bohemian
Emilie Olling har været en del af Cathrine Dufours team i 1,5 år, men først for 2 måneder siden startede hun som groom for Cathrine. Selvom Emilie ikke har super meget erfaring, har alligevel nået at snuse rigtig godt til den international atmosfære, da hun har nået at være med til tre internationale stævner sammen med Cathrine ,inden de rejste til Aachen i karantæne med Bohemian og Vamos Amigos.
“Dagligdagen i Aachen er lidt som der hjemme. Vi fodrer på de samme tidspunkter, dog kommer hestene ikke på fold og bliver redet 2 gang om dagen. Af forberedelser har vi egentlig bare holdt hestenes daglige rutiner. De bliver ikke overtrænet. De kan deres ting. Så når der trænes, bliver de redet løsgørende og selvfølgelig bliver øvelserne finpudset. Lige nu går vi alle bare i venteposition. Alle hestene trives her I Aachen, så det bliver spændende at se, hvad de siger til det japanske klima. Vi glæder os alle til imorgen, så vi kan starte OL eventyret,” siger Emilie.
Frederikke & Bufranco
For Frederikke har “rejsen” frem mod OL i Tokyo været en kæmpe oplevelse. Ligesom hos de andre grooms, har der været stor spænding om, hvem der var blandt de heldige der skulle afsted.
“Jeg har selv kun været groom i et års tid, og OL bliver mit første rigtig store stævne. Så det er noget af en oplevelse, og jeg glæder mig utrolig meget til vi ankommer til Tokyo. Det bliver uden tvivl en helt unik oplevelse tiltrods for alle coronarestriktionerne.
Aachen er nærmest som at være i et lille samfund kun med heste og hestefolk. Dagene starter i stalden lidt i 7 med fodring, mugning og morgen gåtur. Så er der tid til at få lidt morgenmad selv og få ordnet diverse praktiske ting, før en evt formiddagstræning eller frokost fodring af hestene. Vi har forsøgt at ligge træningerne om eftermiddagen, da selve stævnet i Tokyo vil foregå om eftermiddagen/aftenen. Så for at hestene vænner sig til det, er det også derfor vi træner her Aachen. Så står den ellers på aftensmad for os selv og så natputning af hestene ved 21-tiden. Her i Aachen har der også været tid for både os grooms og rytterne til at slappe lidt af ind i mellem de praktiske ting omkring hestene og få brugt noget tid sammen med hele teamet. Vi har blandt andet set fodbold sammen, og i fredags var Rasmus Bagger på besøg i danskerlejren her i Aachen,” fortæller Frederikke.
Signe & Heiline´s Danciera
Signe´s groom drøm startede, da hun ikke var ret gammel. Hun sad ved hingstekåringen og tænkte, at hun bare skulle være groom.
“Jeg vil være en af dem, der render rundt ude bag ved og passer hestene og har styr på det. Og “here I am”. Inden jeg startede som groom for Carina for 1,5 år siden ,havde jeg arbejdet 2 år hos Helgstrand Dressage, som groom for Betina Jæger, og var b.la. med til CHIO i Aachen i 2018 og VM i Tryon -samt et par danmarksmesterskaber, hingsteshows osv. Sammen med Danse og Carina har jeg været med til diverse World Cups og andre internationale stævner. Teamworket fungere rigtig godt mellem Carina og jeg, og vi har med fælles hjælp fået styr på mange praktiske ting inden afgangen til Aachen. Derudover har jeg selvfølgelig gjort mit bedste for at prøve at bidrage til at Danse er sund og frisk. Lige nu tager vi det stille og roligt hernede. Vi hygger lidt og får motioneret hestene lidt stille og roligt uden for meget pres endnu. Vi er gode til at få samlet os om måltiderne i løbet af dagen, så ´der er rigtig god holdånd - og nu ER VI KLAR TIL AFGANG MOD TOKYO,” slutter Signe.
Fuldt hus for de danske ekvipager i 6 års og 7 års som også er finale klar i Falsterbo
Dagens bedste dansker præstation i Falsterbo stod berider Karin Nissen for sammen med sin 6 års vallak Scagleitti V e. Sezuan / Lauries Crusador xx avlet af Iben Kamp. Parret leverede en fin og flydende tur, dejlig letfodet i trav turen med god balance og fine øgninger, skridten bliver lidt på tæerne hvor man mangler lidt mere smidighed og afspændthed, god galop tur med fine gennemsprungne changementer.
Også Emma Ahlberg er finaleklar i 6 års klassen med Logo´s Gaya e. Grand Galaxy Win / Don Romantic avlet af Jette Friis.
Andreas Larsen og Lillesø´s Sezoo e. Sezuan / Sandro Hit, avlet af Stutteri Lillesø er klar til finalen i 7 års klassen.
Husk at 5 års finalen og 7 års finalen kan følges gratis via linket her.
6 års heste klar til finalen:
7 års heste klar til finalen:
Jan Møller Christensen placeret som både nr. 1 og nr. 2 i dagens indledende 5 års klasse i Falsterbo
Falsterbo Horse Show er startet I dag med dressuren, og her gjorde danske Jan Møller Christensen sig særlig godt bemærket med at indtage på 1. og 2. pladsen med Castro Sem og Hesselhøj Dream. Begge heste super velforberedte, afspændte og præsenteret i den flot form hele vejen.
Placeret som nr. 3 blev Emma Ahlberg med Ambjergs Delgadino som også leverede en rigtig fin tur.
Selina Solberg Vittinghus og årets hoppe i Dansk Varmblod Atterupgaards Lady Hamilton scorede dagens højeste gangartspointsum med bl.a. et 10-tal for trav og 9 for kapacitet. Ekvipagen blev placeret som nr. 6.
Joachim Thomsen og Follow Your Heart snupper den sidste finaleplads, og helt sikkert en kandidat til en forbedret placering hvis Joachim kan komme til at vise en lidt mere afspændt tur på mandag.
De 12 bedste ekvipager fra dagens indledende klasse er klar til finalen på mandag.
It’s all go for Tokyo….
Baji Koen Equestrian Park which will be home to equestrian sport during the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.
FEI PRESS RELEASE
Before the action even begins the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games are already unforgettable. Running a year later than scheduled and with multiple challenges along the way, the best of the best are now putting in their final preparations ahead of the Opening Ceremony on 23 July 2021.
It has been a difficult lead-in period, with so many interruptions due to the pandemic that has affected the entire world and the Equine Herpes Virus (EHV-1) impacting Mainland Europe. Then this week’s news that there will be no spectators at any of the venues in order to ensure safe and secure Games. But the statistics for equestrian sport are more impressive than ever, with a record number of countries fielding teams and individuals in the three disciplines of Dressage, Eventing and Jumping.
The Tokyo 2020 sport entries (FEI Definite Entries) reveal that the flags of 50 nations will fly high during two weeks of spectacular sport. A total of 200 athlete-and-horse combinations are listed, along with an additional 48 Alternate/Reserves.
Formats
The new three-member format has changed the dynamic of the team competitions. Not only is the pressure more intense as each individual performance will count for so much, but it has also opened the door for many more countries to take part.
At the Rio 2016 Olympic Games a total of 27 nations lined out in Jumping, with 15 of those sending teams, while this time 20 teams and individuals from a further 15 countries will take part to boost the number of National Olympic Committees (NOC) represented in Tokyo to 35. In Eventing the number of participating countries has increased from 24 to 29, with 15 teams compared to 13 in Rio, and in Dressage the numbers jump from 25 to 30 nations and from 11 teams to 15.
Centred
The equestrian events of the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games will be principally centred at Baji Koen Equestrian Park in Setagaya. This is a public park owned by the Japan Racing Association, which was also the venue for Dressage at the Tokyo 1964 Olympic Games,.
Back then Eventing was staged in Karuizawa and Jumping took place at the National Olympic Stadium. For the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games, the fully refurbished Baji Koen will host Dressage, Jumping and two of the three phases of Eventing.
Course designer, Derek di Grazia (USA), has spent the last five years creating the Eventing Cross Country course on what was previously a landfill site at the waterfront at Sea Forest with a stunning backdrop of Tokyo Bay and the city. Equestrian shares the venue, which will become a public park after the Games, with Olympic rowing and canoeing.
The Games of the XXXll Olympiad promise to be like nothing that has gone before and equestrian sport is already breaking records.
EQUESTRIAN SPORT IN THE OLYMPIC MOVEMENT
Equestrian sport has been part of the Olympic Games since 1912.
Team and individual medals are awarded in three disciplines - Dressage, Eventing and Jumping.
A three-per-team format applies for the equestrian events at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games.
In Tokyo 1964 Jumping and Dressage teams consisted of three athlete/horse combinations but there were four on Eventing teams.
Canada’s Ian Millar holds the record – 10 – for the most Olympic appearances by any athlete in any sport. He first competed at the Munich Olympics in 1972 and his last Olympic appearance was at London 2012 at the age of 65. He won team silver at the Beijing Games in 2008.
German teams claimed gold in both Jumping and Dressage at the Tokyo Olympic Games in 1964 while Italy clinched the Eventing team title.
French star, Pierre Jonqueres d’Oriola, won individual Jumping gold with Lutteur B, Switzerland’s Henri Chammartin and Woerman took the individual Dressage title and Italy’s Mauro Checcoli and Surbean were the individual Eventing gold medallists.
At the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, France won team gold in both Jumping and Eventing, while Germany took the Dressage team title for the 13th time.
Great Britain took individual gold in Jumping - Nick Skelton with Big Star - and in Dressage - Charlotte Dujardin with Valegro.
Individual gold in Eventing went to Germany’s Michael Jung with Biosthetique Sam.
Tokyo 2020 equestrian statistics:
Jumping: 35 countries, 20 teams, 75 horse/athlete combinations
Eventing: 29 countries, 15 teams, 65 horse/athlete combinations
Dressage: 30 countries, 15 teams, 60 horse/athlete combinations
The Tokyo 2020 sport entries (FEI Definite Entries) also include additional reserve horses and riders.

Joachim Thomsen & Aarøe´s Ghandi
Anne Troensegaard & Kipling
Sanne Svendsen & Hannah Montana
H2R har fanget Joachim Thomsen til en lille update om turen indtil nu
“Turen herop var utrolig lang, første stop var travbanen i Stockholm hvor vi havde pause inden vi sejlede til Åbo i Finland. Selve sejlturen var frygtelig varm, så vi var nødt til at have blæsere osv tændt under det meste af turen, men heldigvis klarede alle danske heste den næsten 24 timers rejse super flot. Hestene har været friske fra vores første træningsdag heroppe og vi er kommet fint på plads. Vi har været heldige at få bokse indendørs, selvom det er lidt begrænset med plads og vi derfor har fået tackbokse udenfor i teltstalden. Vi hygger og har det sjovt sammen i vores lille team, og er gode til at hjælpe hinanden.
Vejret klager vi ikke over da termometeret siger omkring 27 grader. Fredag aften var der træning på opvisningsbanen, dog kun med 15 minutter til hver nation. Alle hestene er gået gennem vetcheck og vi er nu klar til hold Grand Prix klassen imorgen,” fortæller Joachim Thomsen.
