Hoppen gjorde sig særdeles godt bemærket i dag på den sidste dag til stationsafprøvningen med en samlet score på imponerende 920 point!

Det er den bedste hest jeg nogensinde har haft”, fortæller en stolt Michael Søgaard, som tilføjer “Jeg glæder mig meget til selv at ride hende til eliteskuet på Vilhelmsborg i næste måned.”

Daniel Bachmann og Anna Kasprzak med topplaceringer i CDI3 Grand Prix i Herzlake

Daniel Bachmann og Anna Kasprzak var med I toppen af dagens felt I Herzlake
Daniel og Marshall-Bell leverede bedste dansker resultat i dagens internationale Grand Prix i tyske Herzlake med 73,043%. Det overordnede billede er en klart styrket Marshall som bl.a. giver sig udslag i meget bedre balance og ensartethed i passage turene. I dagens klasse med flere 8 taller for passage og overgange samt et enkelt 9-tal for passage, desværre mister Marshall balancen i priouetten til højre og det koster i dag sejren, da alle 5 dommere giver et 4-tal for øvelsen, og med koefficent 2 bliver det et 8-tal over hele linien.
Anna Kasprzak var skarpt tilbage på banen efter babypause med både Fuhur og Rock Star. Begge ture uden tekniske fejl, eneste lille ting var at Fuhur springer i galop i fremridningen fra indridningsparaden. Highlights var stærke piaffe / passage ture med Fuhur og super skridttur samt gode pirouetter, mens Rock Star viser stor styrke i en flot skridttur samt en stærk galoptur med super flotte serier.

FEI PRESS RELEASE - Tears and cheers as von Bredow-Werndl takes individual gold

Tears and cheers as von Bredow-Werndl takes individual gold
by Louise Parkes
Everything about the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games has been a journey into the unknown. But there was a ring of familiarity combined with a spirit of great sport when Germany’s Jessica von Bredow-Werndl claimed the Individual Dressage title with the lovely mare TSF Dalera at Baji Koen Equestrian Park tonight where compatriot Isabell Werth had to settle for silver and Great Britain’s Charlotte Dujardin took the bronze. It was the perfect end to four fabulous days of competition in this first of the three Olympic equestrian disciplines.
The new champion was always on song, throwing down the biggest score in the opening Grand Prix and then setting a new Olympic record in yesterday’s Grand Prix Special to secure the team title for her country. Tonight she produced another performance that oozed such class and elegance that once she left the arena, with a score of 91.732 on the board, it seemed impossible she could be beaten.
But the game is never over until its over, and the tension and emotions in the closing stages were extreme. Of four remaining combinations still left to take their turn, three of them were a real threat, and as she was trying to engage in a post-competition media interview Von Bredow-Werndl’s eyes were glued to the nearby screen, because, third-last to go, her compatriot Isabell Werth was in the ring.
Longtime legend
Werth is a longtime legend with more Championships and Olympic medals in her trophy cabin than any other equestrian athlete. Never the shrinking violet, she is not used to playing second fiddle to her own team-mates and with her much-loved mare Bella Rose she produced one of her typically spellbinding performances that kept onlookers glued to every move. However when her score of 89.675 was posted Von Bredow-Werndl burst into tears and fled back to the stables, overcome by the possibility that Olympic gold was now within reach.
Second-last to go was defending double Olympic champion Charlotte Dujardin from Great Britain, but not with the now-retired superstar Valegro with whom she dominated the sport in recent years but instead with a 10-year-old gelding who knows nothing about the world.
Von Bredow-Werndl’s mare took team gold at the FEI World Equestrian Games in Tryon, USA in 2018 and individual bronze at the European Championships in Rotterdam, The Netherlands the following year. Werth’s mare is a veteran of two World Championships in which she medalled and also those Europeans where she also took gold. On the other hand Dujardin’s little chestnut, Gio, had previously only ever competed at one international show, at Hagen in Germany in April. Unaware of the level of exposure he was now getting however, the little chestnut gave his all for a score of 88.543 which put him in bronze medal position.
Only the last of the German riders, Dorothee Schneider, could change the podium places now and under normal circumstances she might well have ensured it was an all German one but it didn’t happen when her horse, Showtime, was right off form.
Spectacular
Talking about the spectacular ride she enjoyed on Dalera tonight that earned the coveted gold, Von Bredow-Werndl said, “I felt from the very first second to the last the she was 100% with me - listening so well that I had to be careful not to do too much or too little!” She’s been riding the 14-year-old mare for many years now, but she’s had a new level of belief in their potential since producing a great performance at the 2019 European Championships.
“We didn’t have such a lucky start in the Grand Prix or the Special there, but in the Freestyle we showed that anything is possible and from then on I began believing the Olympic dream could come true”. Now it has…
Meanwhile silver medallist Werth was asked what it was like to no longer be the number one German rider, and replied with her usual usual wisdom. “If you follow the results of the last 30 years I have not always been number one, it has been up and down all the time and I’m happy today because Bella felt fantastic. This was a tough sporting competition and that’s what we all want to have and love to have. You can’t have ten winners, you can only have one, that is sport”, she pointed out.
Dujardin meantime, who in winning her sixth medal has overtaken rower, Dame Katherine Grainger, to become Great Britain’s most decorated female Olympian of all time, was delighted with her bronze. And she was thrilled with her little wonderhorse.
“I was never going down without a fight but Pumpkin (Gio) has only done one other Freestyle in his life and for him to go out there with as little experience as he has is truly outstanding. We never did this floorplan before and he didn’t know what he was doing and I didn’t know what I was doing but we just went out to have a really good time and enjoy ourselves, and we did that. I’m really proud of him”, she said.
Facts and Figures:
Today’s Individual silver in the Freestyle has brought the total number of Olympic medals won by Germany’s Isabell Werth to 12. She has won 6 team golds, 1 individual gold and 5 individual silver medals, going all the way back to the Olympic Games in Barcelona in 1992.
Werth was the last German rider to take the Individual Olympic title, with Gigolo at the 1996 Games in Atlanta, USA.
An analysis of the scores over the four days of Dressage competition at the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games showing the number of 10s awarded to the top three riders as follows:
Jessica von Bredow-Werndl/Dalera - 81
Isabell Werth/Bella Rose - 66
Charlotte Dujardin/Gio - 8
Quotes:
Jessica von Bredow-Werndl GER (Gold): “I was so nervous when Isabell rode…when I heard her result I just had to cry…it was very emotional”.
Charlotte Dujardin GBR (Bronze): “My journey with Valegro was a life-changing experience and to find another Valegro is near enough impossible. But I’m incredibly proud to have another horse here at the Olympic Games that I bought as a 5-year-old, trained him up and took two medals here - it’s incredible to achieve that.
Coming here we really didn’t know what to expect. Gio is a horse with very little experience, that is only the second Freestyle he’s ever done. To come to each Olympics and medal team and individually every time - I did it twice with Valegro and to come with a new dance partner, very inexperienced and very young, and come away with two medals again - I couldn’t be prouder!”
Sabine Schut-Kery USA who finished fifth, when asked how it feels to have become an overnight sensation due to her performances with Sanceo: “It makes me a little bit like I want to crawl into a hole! I don’t really know what to do with it.”
Sabine Schut-Kery USA when asked about her horse’s performance tonight and her accompanying musical score: “Sometimes they have an extra little edge and maybe that wasn’t quite there tonight, and because I wasn’t as polished in the floorplan because I hadn’t ridden it I think I was not as fluid and I was in his way. He was not tired he was just a little more edgy the other two nights.
About her music: “It was created by my husband Kristian Kery. The first song is from the movie The Last Samurai and I just love it because I think movie music is meant to bring certain emotion to you, so I love that style of music - it resembles Sanceo, a little bit dramatic but not too much!”
Results here
Germany, USA, Great Britain at the Olympic podium
No doubt about Germany
At the paper and in real live Germany were just unbeatable.
Before going in to today’s Grand Prix Special Britain looked like a clear silver medal and the fight for the bronze would be between USA and Denmark, but NOTHING is decided before the final rider has left the arena.
British team from silver to bronze position
The British team was strong as expected with both Lottie and Hester in the first two groups while Dujardin and Gio was in the last group. Today a costly error for the one time tempies for Dujardin and Gio became the difference for the British team between Silver and Bronze medals.
USA from bronze contender to silver medalists
The American picture changed after the Grand Prix. Knowing that Steffen Peters and Adrienne Lyle were well prepared and strong, but bringing their ace Senceo with Sabine Schut-Keye became clearly their strongest card from being bronze contender to winning the silver medals.
Denmark finish at 4th position in today's Olympic team competition
Zack and Nanna were first to go for the Danish team and they delivered as expected, likewise did Danciera and Carina, unfortunately Bohemian and Cathrine did not deliver as expected. Cathrine was struggling to keep Bohemian active up in front of her aides all the way and unfortunately also with an error for the first pirouette.
Tomorrow is a new day for the individual final final will take place where all 3 Danish combinations will be among the 18 finalists.
The start list will be available after tomorrow vet check (local time Tokyo 10.30) before the freestyle.
