Following the completion of Longines Luhmühlen this weekend, the German Olympic Equestrian Committee (DOKR) has named its final nominated list of competitors for the Paris Olympics in July. While the “Block 1” of rides is the federation’s first choice for the eventual three-combination team, final decisions will be made at CHIO Aachen during the first weekend in July. This nominated list also does not account for traveling reserve and alternate designations, so there will still be more information to be revealed in a few weeks’ time.
The longlist comprises three blocks, as follows:
Block 1 (alphabetical order):
- Sandra Auffarth (Ganderkesee) with Viamant du Matz
- Michael Jung (Horb) with fischerChipmunk FRH
- Christoph Wahler (Bad Bevensen) with Carjatan S
Block 2 (shunted):
- Malin Hansen-Hotopp (Gransebieth) with Carlitos Quidditch K
- Jérôme Robiné (Warendorf) with Black Ice
Block 3 (alphabetical order):
- Nicolai Aldinger (Salzhausen) with Timmo
- Calvin Böckmann (Warendorf) with The Phantom of the Opera
- Michael Jung with Kilcandra Ocean Power
- Julia Krajewski (Warendorf) with Nickel
- Dirk Schrade (Heidmühlen) with Casino
- Anna Siemer (Salzhausen) with Butts Avondale FRH.
- Christoph Wahler with D’Accord FRH.
