German Olympic Team Already Announced

[Eventer101]

The Team:
Bettina Hoy - Ringwood Cockatoo
Ingrid Klimke - FRH Butts Abraxxas
Hinrich Romeike - Marius Voigt-Logistik
Peter Thomsen - Ghost of Hamish
Frank Ostholt - Mr Medicott

The Reserves
Frank Ostholt - Little Paint
Anna Warnecke - Twinkle Bee
Dirk Schrade - Huskey
Andreas Dibowski - Euroridings Butts Leon
Beeke Kaack - Sinjang

An Interesting choice of ride for Frank Ostholt. I would have thought he would have been on Little Paint considering is 2nd placing in the 4****.

Shame Air Jordan hasnt shown as much form since winning Aachen last year (although from a British perspective thats a good thing!) Surprised Beeke Kaack is only reserve. Is that list in an order?

Thanks for posting

 

[Eventer101]

Yep.
It had Little Paint at the bottom of the reserves list but i couldn't imagine him being down there now so just added him up the top.

Going by BDWP, she's done one OI and then obviously the 3* at Luhmuhlen

So no, it's not you

 

[beenleighford]

go Anna! Shes back in this country in a couple of weeks after hard few months training!

Betting has done 2 OI's and a CIC*** with good results in all three...not done loads but obviously enough.

As a GB supporter I think that looks a great team - reasons why:

Marius Voight Logistik is a big horse and struggled in the heat in Italy as well as hitting a fence.
Bettina can also on a heavier horse and though her dressage is dazzling her xc can be weak and often plays safe with times pens. But depends on how 'strong' the Olympic course is.
Butts Abraxas is still young and maybe this Olympics is too soon.

I also think it's a good team
