On one of the days that enters the history of Italian sport by right, horse riding wanted to make its contribution. In Warsaw, Italy won access to the next Nations Cup (on a path that is honestly very boring, but at least the streaming was free)

Yes, it turned out to be a pretty easy promotion for Italy. Austria was left two fences behind.

 

Now if things go wrong at the Eurpoeans next year, then Italy might have one last chance to grab Olympic quota at the 2023 Nations Cup Finals...

Welp, we have further withdrawals from the Finals. Egypt, Australia, Japan, Uzbekistan have all withdrawn. South Africa did not accept a reallocation, which has now been offered to Morocco (participation TBC).

 

So we are down to just 14-15 teams, 7-8 of which are eligible for the Olympic qualification (SUI, BEL, NOR, MEX, CAN, BRA, ARG and possibly MAR).

 

Entries are available here (provisional).  Kind of hilarious (but also really cool) that our own Sergio Neuppmann Junior is literally the only individual rider entered for the show.

Why are some nations listed as individuals but not all @dcro? 

 

For example  aren't but  do have individual after their name?

I'm not sure. Possibly it could mean they have declared for individual classes as well, but that's just a guess.

 

At any rate, the entries are still provisional with Morocco still missing (so far) and some riders not having their horse picks listed.

Updated entries

 

Still no Morocco. Surely they will not be taking part.

 

Looking at entries, the Olympic quota will likely be contested between . Canada is not here with their best team,whilst Mexico and Norway would need a miracle weekend. I can't see a possible pathway for Argentina here.

Shame we couldn't send our best team, even if our chances were relatively low to qualify. I guess we are going all-in with the Pan American Games and 2023 Nations Cup Final.

[dcro 10,211]

Well, things are looking pretty grim for Brazil with already 12 penalties on the account. Top 8 will advance to the final on Sunday.

[dcro 10,211]

Mexico is out.

[dodge 1,041]

I notice too that Canada is only a team of 3. Shame 

 

Swiss should get the qualifying spot easily enough

Argentina better take a snapshot. They are sitting in 4th place right now with an Olympic quota within grasp.
