Poland wishes. :d I can't see him obtaining MERs at such high level competitions.

Sky is the limit :D Everything is possible ;) Poland is near, maybe riders from Ukraine will participate.  MERs are not so high. And many events still will be held in Europe.

Dutch "short-list" for dressage...

 

Minderhoud is listed with Zonik even though he never competed internationally with him and obviously has no MER? Maybe he plans to campaign the horse on back-to-back weekends just before the deadline.

 

My prediction is Edward Gal, HP Minderhoud and Dinja van Liere, with Emmelie Scholtens being the reserve and really the main victim of the postponement...

 

Marlies van Baalen, 40, and Ben Johnson, 15-year-old KWPN gelding, and
Go Legend, 10-year-old KWPN gelding

Adelinde Cornelissen, 41, and Aqiedo, 16-year-old KWPN stallion,
Zephyr, 17-year-old KWPN gelding,
Fleau de Baian, 11-year-old KWPN stallion, and
Governor-STR, 10-year-old KWPN stallion

Edward Gal, 51, and Glock’s Toto JR., 10-year-old Hanoverian stallion, and
Glock’s Total US, nine-year-old Hanoverian stallion

Dinja van Liere, 30, and Hermes, nine-year-old KWPN stallion, and
Haute Couture, nine-year-old KWPN mare

Patrick van der Meer, 50, and Chinook, 14-year-old KWPN stallion

Anne Meulendijks, 27, and MDH Avanti, 16-year-old KWPN gelding

Hans Peter Minderhoud, 47, and Glock’s Dream Boy, 13-year-old KWPN stallion, and
Glock’s Zonik, 13-year-old Danish Warmblood stallion

Denise Nekeman, 27, and Boston STH, 15-year-old KWPN stallion

She is, but presumably she chose to withdraw Cassidy due to his age.

 

Bohemian is her main star right now, but still, Cassidy would have been a better substitute than Vamos Amigos.

And proven correct on the same day. :yikes:

 

Scholtens withdrew today from the selection trials, and therefore, the Olympics. Last year she had two horses ready. Big victim of the postponement.

I guess Marlies van Baalen and Adelinde Cornelissen will fight it out for the travelling reserve spot then...

As expected, :THA Arinadtha Chavatanont & Boleybawn Prince delivered in the dressage today. They are a really solid combination, so normally they should be able to obtain MER quite easily come Sunday, but this is sport and anything can happen in one competition.

@Dolby:IND Fouaad Mirza owned the dressage today. 1st + 2nd! :hatoff:

 

https://zawodykonne.com/zawody/199/tour/1/52?type=ranking

 

To qualify for Tokyo, he needs to obtain the MER on either Seigneur Medicott or Dajara, but of course qualifying them both and having options would be ideal.

 

Live stream should be available here (only live and window-sized content available for non-subscribers, but more than enough to follow).

    • Yeah, same here, this weekend definitely doesn't have nothing     I mean, so far I've seen lots of racing with cars, motorbikes and regular bikes, college football highlights, ski jumping, mountainbike and so on. But the most important thing of the weekend for me (MotoGP/2/3) being in the early morning is lovely because it opens up the day so much     And yeah, Christmas is usually fun to take a look on Flashscore.com, especially the first day is the one day in the entire year where the whole page is almost entirely empty, with only a bit of football in very few muslim-majority countries  
    • Wow! 5 goals in less than 3 minutes for  so 3rd place for them.   4th place.      7 - 1 
    • Wish I could say the same, for me it’s rare when there’s a day that there’s absolutely nothing on for me to watch There’s even stuff on Christmas (NBA and NFL), although usually in the days leading up to it there’s less sporting events going on. 
    • Gravel world championships     And ski jumping Summer Grand Prix, just finished catching up on an insane season of Red Bull Rookies Cup, still lots of NASCAR to catch up with and with this weekend being a bit of a slow one in terms of live sports (and the MotoGP/2/3 things being in Japan and so being done and dusted by 9am my time), it's so far been a weekend with lots of catching up  
    • WTT China Smash   Men’s Singles 1.  Lin Shidong 2.  Ma Long 3.  Xiang Peng 3.  Liang Jingkun   Women’s Singles 1.  Sun Yingsha  2.  Wang Manyu 3.  Chen Xingtong 3.  Fan Siqi   Men’s Doubles 1.  Liang Jingkun/Wang Chuqin 2.  Lin Gaoyuan/Lin Shidong 3.  Yuan Licen/Xiang Peng 3.  Alexis Lebrun/Felix Lebrun   Women’s Doubles 1.  Qian Tianyi/Chen Xingtong 2.  Wang Yidi/Sun Yingsha 3.  Chen Yi/Xu Yi 3.  Chen I-Ching/Li Yu-Jhun   Mixed Doubles 1.  Lin Shidong/Kuai Man 2.  Lin Gaoyuan/Wang Yidi 3.  Xue Fei/Qian Tianyi 3.  Kristian Karlsson/Christina Kallberg   Full Results
    • Just finished watching the Gauff-Muchova final at the China Open, and I’ll be watching both the men’s and women’s finals at the GSOC HearingLife Tour Challenge, but here’s what else I’ll be watching (or at least trying to watch) the next two weeks.    BWF Denmark Open, ATP Shanghai Masters, WTA Wuhan/Ningbo Open, FIVB Elite 16 Joao Pessoa, FIFA U17 Women’s Football World Cup (lesser priority, the knockout stage matches are in late October to early November), European Table Tennis Championships (lesser priority), FIS Ski/Snowboard Big Air WC Chur, UCI Track Cycling World Championships, WA Swimming WC Shanghai, NBA/NFL/NHL, any semi big curling events that I can find streaming for, any club season volleyball matches that I can find streaming for (some are on VBTV which helps but this season my teams are Gas Sales Blunergy Piacenza, Vero Volley Monza, Vakıfbank, Eczacıbaşı, Asseco Resovia), 3X3 Basketball World Tour Amsterdam/Macau (lesser priority and no group stage matches, only knockout if I have time and I’m not feeling too fatigued)   Edit: There’s also the Archery and Triathlon WC Finals, damn there’s a lot going on.
