So Ukraine will start? It is a fraud. Olympic quota should be for next athlete in ranking, not country. This is cheating..

Yes, they will...

 

Well, this rule was known from the start. Ukraine did everything by-the-book to keep that individual place.

 

But nevertheless, Poland has been really unlucky. :facepalm: First they chose the tougher tournament in Moscow (where they lost to Israel by 1 pen), and then they witnessed Ukraine failing to keep their team spot and taking the individual spot instead...

It is not problem but in this case individual ranking is useless. For example riders from Turkey and Poland had started in many events for points and now "anonymous" rider can start (group C has not rich "riders" with many top level horses). And he has a standard from competition which was beyond ranking? FEI "killing" some europeans nations. For example nations from group C cannot start in some events with group A, B in team competitions.

What the hell?

 

Apparently a withdrawn eventing quota (of an unspecified origin) got reallocated to... :MAS Malaysia in dressage? :yikes: Presumably the withdrawn eventing quota is really Pakistan from the Group F, but how on earth can that same quota end up going to the different discipline, and to the different Group (G)?

 

Either Qabil Ambak has no clue what he is talking about, or FEI better get their lawyers on speed dial. :facepalm:

Ellen Birgitte Farbrot spent the spring chasing MER. She succeeded. But now she withdraws suddenly.

:NOR Norway has nobody else, so this quota will get reallocated to :ITA Italy!

At this point, they are dropping like flies. :yikes:

 

Another Irish Girl in Green who achieved the historic qualification - Kate Dwyer - is out as she announced pregnancy.

Ireland will now have to scratch the bottom of the barrel.

    • Unfortunate, but it doesn't change the fact that I'm looking forward to Thursday evening, when the team captain's meeting is over and we have our very first World Cup start list of the season. Always a cool moment to see who's there and everything  
    • Today I unpacked some of the boxes in which we have put my way too many books to move to our house, and I came across these beauty's I hadn't seen for a while     Absolutely recommended, tough to get for a decent price, but they are such an interesting read with lots of very interesting little stories! Still looking for at least 1900, 1904 and 1906, but not really in the right moment to spend money on that now, so the wait goes on  
    • Which I guess is part of why unfortunately 'our' first wild card attempt of the season was rejected last week  
    • The next chapter in the Krasnobaeva saga is upon us.   Looks like  Armenia have cut ties with her after only a few weeks. A person from their Federation has said, that they won't continue the relationship, because of her unprofessional and rude attitude towards the coaches and other officials. That includes: - having no respect to the coaches and their advise; - training without any motivation; - stops doing the routine and throws objects without any reason; - just lays on the floor and ignores the music.   When this was escalated with her mother, she mentioned that "Elvira has a strong temper and she was the same in Bulgaria and they tolerated her". Which of course is complete BS. If anyone attempted this shit here, they would be thrown out immediately.   And now  are wanting from her mother to return all finances they gave them, which she is refusing, so they will probably sue them. They will also inform other RG Federations about this situation, so they don't hire them.   My 2 cents on this is most likely Krasnobaeva was happy in BG and was forced out by her mother, so now she is sabotaging the move and be done with it.
    • Honestly Ruka is my favourite World Cup event of the whole season. Everybody is there. Later on there is always someone who skips one weekend or another . Not everybody takes part in Tour de ski. But here everyone shows up.
