At this point, Bugan couldn't be any closer...

 

Different qualification paths have different reallocation pools, but after today, almost any new reallocation (from Groups A/B/C/F and Additional) would go straight to Slovakia. Reallocation could even come from Groups D/E/G in some combinations.

@dcro Seems like our dressage team is in real doubt now with confirmation that Anna Merveldt’s horse Esporim won’t be ready in time for the Olympics. Devastating turn of events for the Irish dressage team , hard to understand this level of bad luck.

Odd how James Connor is not listed here. He is eligible (in fact he competed in Italy yesterday, so his horse is also competition-ready), but I guess he may have excluded himself from contention. We will see.

 

I guess the main question is whether the federation will be looking to send the team at any cost. Including the strong possibility of finishing last. If two riders between Rawlins/Connor/Baker are to count, then there is only so much Heike Holstein can do, even against Japan.

In any case, it is safe to say that this team was qualified and ready for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, not the Tokyo 2021 Olympics.

No, she was on a baby-break recently. Now she is slowly building a new string of horses.

No Olympics for  Miloserdova... When she changed her nationality, she forgot to do the same for her horse.

The Italian federation is being so painfully transparent about all this. They declined to send anyone to the 2019 Europeans (also an Olympic qualification event), because none of their riders were "medal candidates". But now, after they received a cheap Olympic reallocation, suddenly they are happy to send anyone and at any cost. I guess some official will be getting a nice Tokyo trip.
