6 possible pairs to Luhmuhlen****

By John on


Luhmuhlen (June 17-20) is the last chance for US riders to prove themselves at a four-star before the World Equestrian Games in September.  The six US pairs that might go to Luhmuhlen are:

Will Coleman and Twizzel
Michael Pollard and Wonderful Will
Allison Springer and Arthur
Amy Tryon and Coal Creek
Jennifer Wooten and The Good Witch
Kate Ditchy Hicks and Belmont

These six pairs have applied to go to Luhmuhlen (you have to apply to compete abroad) and the USEF has accepted all six entries.  All of the 6 Luhmuhlen applicants have sent in WEG applications except for Kate and Belmont.  Twizzel is the one A-listed horse on the list and of course missed Rolex due to Will’s broken collar bone.

Pairs accepted by to compete abroad are not obligated to go, and I would guess that not all 6 of these names will actually make the trip to Germany.  Gehe eventing, da?

    Sort of related but not. Whatever, happen to Mike Pollard's Icarus. They won Jersey Fresh last year right? I think Icarus "tested for something" that come up positive and he was temporarily suspended but I am pretty sure he and Mike were cleared and they kept the wind. Right...or am I wrong?

    Oh, I really hope that Michael and Wonderful Will get to go. That horse has had bad luck at his last 2 Rolex tries with being W'd before his XC last year and then his fall at the ducks this year. I'm rooting for them! Will has the same sire as one of mine!

    Ditchy, get that application IN!! ;)

    Haha, thanks Bo's Mom German is obviously not my first language, or my second, or my third. I have picked up a little German as my dressage coach yells at me though, but I'm not sure any of that is fit for print :)

    Allison, Amy, and Jennifer must have been the B listed riders who had problems at Rolex John was talking about trying to go to Luhmuhlen. I don't really like it that Arthur completed Rolex and might go to another 4* 6 weeks later, but at the same time I'm sad to not see Kim and Paddy on the list.

    Just heard this AM that Jenn Wooten has raised the funds she needs so she will be at Luhmuelen. Go Good Witch!

    Very good blog you have here but I was wondering if you knew of any discussion boards that cover the same topics discussed in this article? I'd really like to be a part of group where I can get advice from other knowledgeable people that share the same interest. If you have any suggestions, please let me know. Appreciate it!
