First major team announced!

As I feared, Tamie Smith got disregarded. She is only the first, non-travelling reserve. :(

 

Dutton and Martin renew their already permanent subscription of the U.S. team places. Liz Halliday-Sharp getting selected is pretty neat, though. A former auto racer who took part at the 24h of Le Mans.

EDIT: As you can see, no team alternate has been named. And that is simply because there was nobody else qualified. Thailand will probably be the only eventing team in Tokyo which will not be able to make a substitution (if needed).

Ahlmann won’t compete for Germany at the Olympics (in jumping). Another huge blow for Germany after Blum was already out. 3 world class rider for Germany who will miss the Olympics (Klimke also won’t compete).

Attachment is the great fabricator of illusions; reality can be obtained only by someone who is detached.
