About 1.300 spectators went to Van Olst Horses for their annual stallion show Sunday

A huge well organised program

As usual Anne and Gertjan van Olst were ready to show the audience the best from Van Olst Horses for their annual stallion show.

The temporary stands at both one long side and one short side were packed, like also the tent at one long side was super crowded. The weather was typical spring with low temperature and wind, but all horses behaved very well during the presentation.

Gertjan was in the center of the arena and was telling details about results, damline ect. about each horse. With the legacy of keur preferent stallion Negro as recently passed away two of his top sons opened and closed the event, Nespresso and Kjento, both ridden by top rider Lottie Fry.

Highlights from H2R besides of course Glamourdale and Everdale were:

  • 11 yr old Jayson by Johnson / Negro / Winconsin, approved for KWPN, OLD & NRPS

  • 7 yr old Ilegro by Inclusive / Negro / Gerschwin (full sister of Valegro), approved for HANN, OLD & NRPS

  • 9 yr old Lantanas by Sir Donnerhall I / Hemmingway / Zuidhorn, approved for KWPN

  • 5 yr old Pjethro by Kjento / Desperado / Houston, approved for KWPN. Uphill, expressive, well moving young foals were shown. Watch out for this chestnut well balanced power boy.

  • 5 yr old Powerdale by Glamourdale / Johnson / Rohdiaant, approved for KWPN. A super foal was shown with type, movements and expression.

  • 4 yr old Real Dream by Dynamic Dream / Negro / Ulster, approved for KWPN. Quick of the ground trot, supple uphill canter and very nice walk.

  • 6 yr old Secret Lover by Secret / Fürstenball / Florestan I, approved for KWPN, HANN & OLD

Taking into consideration breeding is not just a combination of facts and experience but also coincidences, luck and emotions and therefore you cannot make a clear cut for every single breeder which stallion to use, but no doubt you also have pretty much a full range of stallions when watching the Van Olst Horses collection for 2025.

Here you can find the link for the full stallion show.

Stallion show at Stutteri Blue Hors & Stutteri Ask today

Welcome at shared Blue Hors and Ask facilities

Nanna Merrald (Blue Hors) and Søren Møller Rohde (Ask) welcomed and Nanna was among others telling about the temporary competition pause from Blue Hors. At the end of the introduction Danish breeder Henrik Hansen who recently pass away was respectfully honored with one minute of silence.

Jumping stallions and dressage stallions presented in a relaxed atmosphere

The stallion presentation started with 4 jumping stallions, followed by honouring of breeders and then presentation of the dressage stallions: Blue Hors Santiano with Nanna Merrald, Blue Hors Baron with Sophia Ludvigsen, Blue Hors Viva Vegas with Nanna Merrald, Blue Hors Purple Rain with Lea Dyre Jespersen and finishing with Blue Hors St. Schufro with Nanna Merrald and Blue Hors Stardust (gelding, son of Blue Hors St. Schufro) with Sophia Ludvigsen.

Hvad giver hingsten videre?

Linære indekstal på hingste

Det er ved at være højsæson for valg af hingst.

Udover rækken af hingsteshows, listen med potentielle hingste, skal det være en hingst med gode egen præstationer i sporten, kendte afkom, egne erfaringer og erfaring fra andre avlere, så findes der rent faktisk et værktøj hvor “En måling er bedre end en mening”.

De linære indekstal giver en klar rettesnor for, hvad den enkelte hingst nedarver, både positivt og negativt. Det er naturligvis alene et værktøj som kan anvendes ved brug af ældre hingste, dvs. hvor et antal afkom er blevet bedømt og dermed danner grundlaget for de linære indekstal.

Et kig på eksempelvis Donkey Boy herunder. Indeks under 80 eller over 120 er en klar indikation om den egenskab som slår kraftigt igennem avlsmæssigt fra hingsten. Type/rammer hvor Stangmål, højstillethed og ædelhed alle tre er over 120, og dermed en egenskab som slår kraftig igennem.

De værdifulde indekstal findes via SEGES hestedata, søg hingstens navn og derefter findes i højre side “hestens linære indekstal”.

Larsen Dressage med passion og fokus på uddannelse, sport og salg

Uddannelse med henblik på sport og senere salg

Kun 10 minutters kørsel ad motorvejen i retning mod Svendborg, finder man Larsen Dressage som ejes og drives af Jeanette Larsen.

Stedet står skarpt og samtidig med en super hyggelig atmosfære. Det store flotte 30 x 70 ridehus, som man møder på højre side når man kører ind, er delvis forsænket i tærrænet, og på modsatte side findes en smuk anlagt 20 x 60 bane. Stalden består af to afdelinger med i alt 12 bokse, med alle de faciliteter der er brug for i dagligdagen. Alle hestene har lang tid på fold hver dag, hvor de som oftest også får deres middagsfoder.

Træningen og uddannelse af stedets heste står Jeanette og hendes svenske rytter Josefin for. “Gennem de seneste 6 år har berider Jon D. Pedersen to gange om ugen været en del af træningen, hvor han har bidraget til at ambitionerne på det lille team også rækker udover træningen herhjemme”, fortæller Jeanette.

Med alene Jeanette og Josefin samt en staldmand som står for udmugning og middagsfodring, er hele dagligdagen med hestene i Jeanette og Josefin´s hænder. “Det giver både tiden og ikke mindst følingen med den enkelte hest i hele processen”, siger Jeanette.

Jeanette startede sin ridemæssige internationale karriere i Schweiz, som egentlig alene skulle have været et kort ophold, men som istedet blev til 23 år.

I 2015 overtog Jeanette forpagtningen af Broholm Hestecenter, hvor hun sideløbende sammen med sin mand Simon var i fuld gang med at renovere og bygge stedet op i Årslev, og hvor også tvillingerne Emilie og Freja blev født. I 2021 flyttede Jeanette sin forretning til faciliteterne på ejendommen i Årslev, hvor hun kom for alvor igang med egen ridning igen. Sidste år debuterede hun i Grand Prix på egen uddannet hest.

For 1 år siden blev svenske Josefin Nilsson en del teamet via netværket som havde hørt Jeanette søgte rytter. Josefin er næsten dansker, idet hun for ca. 10 år siden var ansat hos Blue Hors, derefter en tid tilbage i Sverige, for så at være en kort periode at være hos Stutteri Gørklintgård, inden hun blev ansat hos Larsen Dressage. Til daglig bor Josefin med sin danske kæreste i Ringe.

Aktuelt var Josefin i fredags til start til stævnet på Randbøl Dressage Academy på den 9-årige hoppe Bruunholms Flora e. Don Olymbrio/Hertug, opdrættet af Bitten og Jørgen Bruun. Ekvipagen viste rigtig god form og kvaliteter, selvom der indløb lidt spændinger.

Hestene som Jeanette og Josefin har under sadel er fra 5 år og op efter, og fælles stævne deltagelse står naturligvis højt på listen, og for Jeanette er international Grand Prix debut forhåbentlig lige om hjørnet, ligesom deltagelse i Bundgaard Byg er på listen for Josefin.

Udover selv at være i sadlen, har Jeanette også en del “elever” hun underviser fra faciliteterne i Årslev, men også i sit “gamle” netværk, hvor hun netop er hjemvendt fra en tur til Schweiz.

Salgsmæssigt har Larsen Dressage næsten altid noget aktuelt, men som Jeanette siger det: “Vi har kun heste i stalden som vi selv elsker at arbejde med, og derfor har vi heller ikke nogen særlig liste over heste som skal sælges. Hvis en potentiel kunde henvender sig, kan jeg ret hurtigt spore mig ind på, om vi har en hest som evt. kunne passe.”

Superstar lineup ready for FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final in Basel

After an exhilarating FEI Dressage World Cup™ season, the lineup for the FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final has been confirmed. From 2–6 April, the St. Jakobshalle in Basel (SUI) will set the stage for the first-ever FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final to be held in Switzerland. Defending champion Patrik Kittel (SWE) will make his way to Basel to battle for back-to-back victories.

Over the past  2024-2025 season, 38 qualifiers took place across four leagues: the Western European League, the North American League, the Central European League, and the Pacific League. With the Paris 2024 Olympic Games behind us, the world's top Dressage athletes have set their sights on the FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final 2025. The race for the 18 coveted spots was fiercely contested, with a star-studded field making a last-minute push for points in ’s-Hertogenbosch last weekend.

Kittel to defend his title

18 athletes from 13 nations will go head-to-head in pursuit of the prestigious FEI Dressage World Cup™ World Cup title. Defending champion and current World No. 10 Patrik Kittel (SWE) qualified his  mare Forever Young HRH (owned by the athlete and Gestüt Peterhof). The mare delivered strong performances in the Amsterdam (NED) and ’s-Hertogenbosch (NED) qualifiers, proving she is ready for the Final.

Joining Kittel are nine combinations from the Western European League, including World No. 2 Isabell Werth (GER), who will bring DSP Quantaz (owned by Madeleine Winter-Schulze and Victoria Max-Theurer) to Basel. With this horse, she secured third place at the last two Finals in Riyadh (KSA) and Omaha (USA). As a legend of the sport, Werth will make her 26th FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final appearance. Her track record speaks for itself. She has reached the podium in her last six Finals and claimed the title five times, with her first victory dating back to Gothenburg (SWE) in 1992. Having won the Lyon (FRA), Stuttgart (GER), and Basel qualifiers this season, Werth is in top form heading into the Final.

Western European League contenders

World No. 3 and reigning Freestyle Olympic bronze medallist Charlotte Fry (GBR) has also confirmed her participation. She will partner with her black powerhouse Glamourdale (owned by the athlete and Van Olst Horses), with whom she dominated the London, Amsterdam, and ’s-Hertogenbosch qualifiers, with her last two wins trending towards the 90% mark.

Germany will be well-represented in Basel, having secured the maximum number of spots allowed per nation. Alongside Werth, Bianca Nowag-Aulenbrock (GER) will compete with Florine OLD (owned by Elisabeth von Wulffen), while Carina Scholz (GER) will bring Tarantino (owned by Sportpferde Scholz). Nowag-Aulenbrock set a new personal best of 80.450% in ’s-Hertogenbosch and also claimed victory in Mariakalnok while also reaching the podium in Stuttgart. Scholz has enjoyed a strong FEI Dressage World Cup™ season with multiple horses, and has confirmed that her routineer Tarantino 5, runner-up in Madrid (ESP), will be her mount for Basel.

France will be represented by two of their Olympic combinations, including Corentin Pottier (FRA) and Gotilas du Feuillard (owned by Camille Judet Cheret, Herve Pottier and Maryse Pottier), who finished second in the FEI Dressage World Cup™ standings, just behind Werth. Pottier launched his campaign late in the season, beginning in Mechelen (BEL) in December, but secured crucial points with two third-place finishes in Neumünster (GER) and Gothenburg (SWE), as well as a victory in Motesice (SVK) in the Central European League. His compatriot Pauline Basquin (FRA), winner of the Madrid qualifier, will also make her FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final debut with Sertorius de Rima Z IFCE (owned by Institut Francais Du Cheval Et De L’Equitation).

Belgium’s Larissa Pauluis (BEL) will return to the final with Flambeau (owned by Marie Christine Pauluis, Jean Pauluis, Emmanuel Lepage and Caroline Lepage), having competed in Riyadh (KSA) last year with First-Step Valentin. Also making a repeat appearance is Borja Carrascosa (ESP) with Sir Hubert NRW (owned by the athlete and Sportpferde Hofmann GbR), winner of the qualifier in Lerma, St. Vincent, Mexico.

Isabell Freese (NOR) has confirmed her participation with Total Hope OLD (owned by Paul Schockemöhle, Lone Boegh-Hendriksen and Oivind Bache), the stallion she also rode in the Olympic Freestyle Final. A true legacy horse, Total Hope OLD is the product of two former FEI Dressage World Cup™ champions: sired by Totilas and with triple FEI Dressage World Cup™ winner Weihegold OLD as his mom. Basel will mark Freese’s first-ever World Cup Final appearance.

North American League

Spanning 10 competitions, the North American League allocated three tickets to the FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final, all of which were secured by American combinations. The first points were claimed by Kevin Kohmann and Duenensee (owned by Diamante Farms), who secured victory in Devon at the end of September.

The second leg of the NAL made history as the first-ever FEI Dressage World Cup™ qualifier in Mexico, held in Lerma, St. Vincent. In an unexpected twist, the win went to Western European League athlete Borja Carrascosa flew his Sir Hubert NRW across the Atlantic and picked up 20 points in Mexico. Kohmann also capitalised on the opportunity, finishing second.

Kohmann enjoyed a strong season, claiming another 20 points with a win in Wellington (USA) in early March. His consistent performances in Ocala (USA) in December, and in Wellington in January and March, secured him a well-earned spot in the Final. He returns for his second consecutive appearance, having competed in last year’s Final in Riyadh with Duenensee.

Two more combinations secured 60 points to qualify: Genay Vaughn and Adrienne Lyle. For 31-year-old Vaughn, it will be a debut appearance at the Final. With Gino (owned by Michele Vaughn), she secured victories in Thermal (USA) and Del Mar (USA) in February, amassing the necessary 60 points in just three competitions.

Three-time Olympian Adrienne Lyle also had a successful campaign with Helix (owned by Zen Elite Equestrian Center), her Paris 2024 Olympic partner. She won all three of her outings, taking top honours in Ocala in December, as well as back-to-back victories in Wellington in January and February. This propelled her above Anna Marek and Kevin Kohmann, who finished second and third in Ocala. Marek, who competed in last year’s Final in Riyadh with Fire Fly (owned by Janet Simile), came close once again but fell just short, despite strong performances in Ocala and Wellington.

Central European League

The Central European League featured no fewer than 14 qualifiers, kicking off in May in Budapest (HUN). The two coveted tickets to the FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final were secured by Anikó Komjáthy-Losonczy and Sandra Sysojeva, both finishing on 80 points.

The season opener in Budapest saw home athlete Yazmin Yom-Tov and her grey Konfucius (owned by Arie Yom Tov) claim victory ahead of Katarzyna Milczarek. The Polish athlete delivered an impressive season aboard Guapo (owned by the Athlete), winning in Brno (CZE) and Wroclaw (POL), but her final tally of 74 points left her just outside qualification.

Paris Olympian and Riyadh World Cup Finalist Justina Vanagaite (LTU) took the second qualifier in Olomouc (CZE) with Nabab (owned by the athlete and Jurga Girniute and Ramunas Bogdanas) and later finished second in Motesice (SVK) in October. As the highest-placed CEL athlete in that event, she gained 20 points. She also posted two runner-up finishes in Riga (LAT) and Tallinn (EST), rounding off a strong season, but ultimately falling short of qualification with 74 points.

Sandra Sysojeva (POL) and her Olympic Freestyle-finalist mare Maxima Bella (owned by the athlete and Dominika Krasko Bialek and Piet Lenskens) captured the hearts of many with an unbeaten record in four FEI Dressage World Cup™ qualifiers, triumphing in Pärnu (EST), Riga (LAT), Wierzbna Bialy Las (POL), and Tallinn (EST).

Anikó Komjáthy-Losonczy (HUN) also secured four maximum-score performances with her big grey Dior S (owned by Okura Co Ltd). The pair finished second in Lipica (SLO) in June and sixth in Samorin (SVK) and Mariakalnok (HUN). However, as all combinations ahead of her were from other leagues, she still gained the full 20 points in both events, securing her place in for the FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final in Basel.

Pacific League

The Pacific League consisted of three qualifiers, all held in Australia: CDI-W Werribee in March, CDI-W Melbourne in December, and the Pacific League Final, which returned to Werribee.

The opening qualifier went to the only 21-year-old Jessica Dertell (AUS) with Cennin, narrowly edging out David McKinnon (AUS). Dertell also finished third aboard Syriana, the horse previously campaigned by Mary Hanna (AUS), who took fourth place with her new ride, Ivanhoe.

McKinnon took the Melbourne leg aboard Estupendo (owned by Vivien Lipshut), scoring 75.400% in the Freestyle to claim victory over Hanna and Ivanhoe (owned by the athlete), who finished second with 73.695%.

Hanna returned to the top of the podium in the final qualifier in Werribee with Syriana, just ahead of New Zealand’s Wendi Williamson in second and McKinnon in third. With this result, the 71-year-old Hanna, who represented Australia at no fewer than six Olympic Games, secured her ticket to Basel, marking her sixth FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final appearance. 

Non-league and FEI Extra starting place

The non-league starting place has been allocated to Renderson Silva de Oliveira (BRA) with Fogoso Campline, as the highest-ranked non-league athlete on the FEI Dressage World Ranking List, based on the application of the Brazilian National Federation. He guided his Lusitano grey to a seventh-place finish in Madrid and an impressive ninth place in a strong field in Neumünster, scoring no less than 76.845%.

The FEI Extra starting place has been assigned, in accordance with the rules, to Jessica Neuhauser (SUI) and Rockson (owned by Hildegard Magdalena Riedmaier), as the highest-scoring athlete from the Western European League, from the host nation across at least two FEI Dressage World Cup™ qualifiers.

One thing is certain: Basel will crown a new FEI Dressage World Cup™ champion, as none of the competing combinations have previously claimed the title.

The competition kicks off in Basel on Friday, 4 April, at 13:00 CET. The Freestyle Final on Saturday, 5 April, at 19:30 CET will determine who takes home the FEI Dressage World Cup™ title.

FEI statement on misinformation and the fair treatment of athletes & officials

PRESS RELEASE

The FEI acknowledges the invaluable role that the media, and research expertise plays in highlighting issues within our sport. Without responsible journalism and the work of the academic community around the world, equestrian sport would not have evolved to the level of professionalism and welfare standards we see today.

We respect the diversity of voices within the equestrian community, including those who challenge our practices and push us to continuously improve. These voices serve as our mirror, aiding us in our daily work of ensuring the welfare of the horse remains our top priority. We also acknowledge the many journalists who report with integrity and professionalism, and we value their role in keeping the equestrian community informed and accountable. 

The FEI welcomes open discussions about the role of horses in sport, but it is critical that these discussions are based on accurate information and constructive dialogue. Misinformation — whether through omission, misrepresentation, or lack of context — can mislead the public and damage trust in the sport.

A number of Dressage athletes and FEI Officials have found themselves targeted and are facing unverified accusations and scrutiny by some parts of the media. It is disheartening to see dedicated professionals, who have committed their lives to the care of their horses and to the sport, feel as though they are being subjected to undue pressure from those seeking to spread disinformation.  

Change must of course come from within, driven by a shared commitment to horse welfare and sporting excellence. The FEI remains committed to listening, learning, and evolving. And while we fully support addressing wrongdoing within the sport, it is unjust to subject the entire community to suspicion and criticism. True progress requires collaboration and a safe environment where individuals can reflect and adapt without fear of public shaming.

The media are vital to equestrian sport. We urge those who report on it to do so fairly and accurately.

 

Fry (GBR) sparks magic with Glamourdale in 's-Hertogenbosch (NED)

The tension was palpable at the final FEI Dressage World Cup™ Western European League qualifier of the season. In 's-Hertogenbosch, Charlotte Fry (GBR) and Glamourdale emerged victorious once again, securing their ticket to the Final with a perfect record of three wins out of three appearances. However, her compatriot Becky Moody (GBR) and Jagerbomb came within touching distance. Belgium’s rising star Justin Verboomen (BEL) wowed the crowd and finished in third place.

Fry and Moody dominated in a sold-out arena in 's-Hertogenbosch, going head-to-head in a battle of British excellence. The reigning World Champion Fry edged out her fellow Brit in both tests, delivering a flawless Freestyle performance that scored 89.705%. Having already claimed victories in London and Amsterdam, Fry amassed a total of 60 points, comfortably securing her place at the FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final in Basel in three weeks’ time.
Becky Moody and her home-bred Jagerbomb, as well as Belgium’s Justin Verboomen with Zonik Plus, are still uncertain of their Final spots, potentially lacking the necessary points.

Home athletes take a back seat

With many top combinations travelling to 's-Hertogenbosch for the final opportunity to secure points, the start list featured an exceptionally strong field. This left the Dutch home athletes playing a more supporting role, particularly after home favourite Dinja van Liere (NED) withdrew before the Grand Prix. The best Dutch result came from Marlies van Baalen (NED), who, with her home-bred Habibi DVB N.O.P., produced a harmonious Freestyle to harp music, scoring 77.525%. While their test impressed in terms of harmony, they lost points in the walk section.

Belgium, however, made a much bigger impact, with three Belgian athletes finishing in the top seven. Domien Michiels (BEL) and Intermezzo van het Meerdaalhof (owned by Marc Steeno) delivered a faultless Freestyle with soft contact and a powerful canter tour. Larissa Pauluis (BEL) followed with a dynamic and energetic performance aboard Flambeau (owned by Marie Christine Pauluis, Jean Pauluis, Caroline and Emmanuelle Lepage), with deep bass tones resonating through the arena. Scoring 79.895%, Pauluis secured a fifth-place finish and earned enough points to book her place in the Final.

Yet, it was Justin Verboomen and Zonik Plus who led the Belgian charge. Following a runner-up finish in Mechelen, the pair impressed again in 's-Hertogenbosch, claiming third place. Their piaffe and passage were breathtaking, and their Freestyle was rewarded with 84.160%. “Already when Zonik Plus was young, I knew he had so much potential. He is a fighter, a winner,” said a slightly reserved Verboomen. Despite his strong performances, he may fall short on points for a Final spot, having only contested two qualifiers.

Basquin and Nowag-Aulenbrock 

The second half of the competition saw scores soar, with fewer mistakes, and ever-more refined technical and artistic execution. Pauline Basquin (FRA) and Sertorius de Rima Z IFCE (owned by Institut Français du Cheval et de L’Equitation) added valuable points to their tally following their victory in Madrid, securing their ticket to Basel. Their test was highlighted by lightness and harmony in the trot tour, earning them 78.555% and an eighth place.

Bianca Nowag-Aulenbrock (GER) and the ever-cheerful Florine OLD (owned by Elisabeth von Wulffen) also clinched their spot in the Final. The striking chestnut mare confidently pranced through the test with ears forward, although marks were lost in the piaffe. Their 78.965% score and sixth-place finish sealed their qualification.

Werth gears up for her 26th Final

Dressage queen Isabell Werth (GER) remains atop the FEI Dressage World Cup™ standings with 75 points. Riding DSP Quantaz (owned by Madeleine Winter-Schulze and Victoria Max-Theurer), she had to settle for fourth place this year in 's-Hertogenbosch after winning here in 2024. However, her place in the Final was never in doubt. The German legend is now set to contest her astonishing 26th FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final.

British stars take centre stage

The leading roles in 's-Hertogenbosch, however, belonged to Charlotte Fry and Becky Moody. Fry brought the crowd to its feet. Glamourdale (owned by the athlete and Gertjan van Olst) was in outstanding form, showcasing a breathtaking combination of beauty, uphill balance, power, elegance, and harmony. “I don’t get emotional very often, but today when the crowd started clapping and cheering, it just got me,” said Fry, who shed a few tears after her performance.

"Today was going to be our day. Glamourdale rose to the occasion. He is such a showman. Lucky for me, he is perfect in every way: he has the conformation, the character, the determination, the showmanship. I just have to make sure to sit there and make everything look pretty." 

Charlotte Fry

(GBR)

Becky Moody and Jagerbomb (co-owned by Moody and Jo Cooper) delivered a personal best, scoring 87.545%, much to Moody's delight. “I’m so proud of him! He is a truly exceptional horse. His heart is his most talented part: he always gives absolutely everything. I’m so lucky to have him,” she beamed.

All eyes on Basel
Reigning FEI Dressage World Cup™ champion Patrik Kittel finished 11th in ‘s-Hertogenbosch with Forever Young HRH. However, as the defending champion, he is automatically qualified for the Final.

The start list for the 38th FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final will take shape very soon, so don’t miss a hoofbeat…

ANCCE announces the creation of a PRE Prix St Georges and Grand Prix team. This newest project places the spotlight on Purebred Spanish Horse competing at these levels. With this initiative, ANCCE reinforces its commitment with adult horses in this discipline to provide them a platform for the growth of pairs seeking excellence at national and international levels.

This team brings together the most competitive pairs at the Prix St Georges and Grand Prix levels to represent PRE Horses at international competitions. Horses will be selected by the Selection Committee, that will assess the pairs at International Dressage Competitions (CDI) both within Spain’s borders and abroad.

Summons and Selection Process
The ANCCE Selection Committee will review and follow the pairs participating at international competitions between January first and June fifteenth of this year 2025. The results throughout this period will be pivotal when selecting the members of the aforementioned team.

Economic Support and International Participation
The main novelty is that as of September of this year, the selected pairs will have access to economic aid ranging between €1000 and €1500 to compete internationally at CDIs. The exact amount will depend on the number of pairs included on the team. This aid is granted to the owner of the horse selected.

The Selection Committee is fully independent to assign the places. Thus, it is possible that there be vacancies, depending on the candidate’s level. Likewise, the number of places has not been fixed so that only the most outstanding pairs become members of the team.

Selection Requirements
To seek a place on the ANCCE PRE Team, the pair must comply with the following requirements:

- Present the results earned at national and international CDIs.
- Sign a Commitment Agreement with the team.
- Have official veterinarian certification.
- Follow the planning established by the Trainer.

Expenses and Financing
Expenses for travel, accommodations and participation at international competitions is covered by each individual pair selected.
