Dressage gold with intermediate tones: Germany for the 25th time European champion

The equestrian occasions at the 2016 Summertime Olympics in Rio de Janeiro were held between 6 as well as 19 August at National Rider Center in Deodoro. Medals were awarded in 3 disciplines for both individual as well as team competitors.

The dressage Equipe has brought the team title of the EM to Germany for the 25th time since 1965. Nevertheless, the sunny day on the Teutoburger forest was not without intermediate tones.

With the 21st EM gold of its unique career around the neck, Isabell Werth sounded clearly reconcilient. I'm great relaxed and Happy, said the most successful rider of the story after the Triumph of the German Dressage Equipe at the European Chama at Hagen am Teutoburger Forest: I had a few points expected more, but that's how life is.

After all, the result in the end was the same as in recent years: Germany with Werth and Weihegold as well as Olympic champion Jessica of Bredow-Werndl with Dalera, Dorothee Schneider with Faustus and Helen Langehananberg with Annabelle was in the end again on the top podium, it was the 25 , Teamgold at an EM since 1965. For Werth it was the eleventh team gold, ten individual titles were added.

In Hagen, there is probably no further, because Jessica of Bredow-Werndl and their four-legged dream dancer Dalera currently seem untouchable. The two put the golden closing point for the hosts with a flawless idea and thus also introduced themselves as a large favorite for the Grand Prix Special on Thursday and the freestyle on Saturday.

The day, who ended so well for Germany, had begun with a failed, Werh was anything but Amused after her ride. I do not think we have been overvalued, said the seven-time Olympic champion sarcastically, after she had received only 79.860 percentage points of the seven judges with her Oldenburg Mare Weihegold in the Grand Prix - the French chief judge of Isabelle Judd was only at 77,717 seen.

Dressage EM: Werth finds judgment ridiculous

Werth was at 180. ridiculous she found the verdict, after 30 years at the highest level quite a feeling for looking like a test. It had been no 83 or 85 percent on Wednesday, but: It was certainly somewhere at 80, 81. That you may want to have another team in front than ever only the Germans, is clear.

The Federal Trainer had also wedh and Weihegold over 80, but relativized the emerging trouble. We are whining at a high level, Monica said theodorescu, who betrayed after the decision that an hour and a sip of water later everything was okay again: Just Isabell is far too long as they are about something like that would be angry longer.

Meanwhile, Jessica from Bredow-Werndl did not get out of the swarms. Thanks to your thanks, especially your horse, which she surgically coated and praised: Dalera is so there, she is in here and now, I can hardly believe it.

The Olympic champion hovered seven on cloud and did not seem to have to come down. Since Tokyo, she told, she could not get out of the rest: I've already reached the hottest.
