Since we are nearing the end of the MER period (six more weeks), I thought it would be interesting to see what would happen if some of the MERs are not met...

 

Dressage

Unconfirmed MERs (individual) - :NOR:BER:RSA

Possible reallocation (individual) - :ITA:CHI:SVK

 

Eventing

Unconfirmed MERs (team) - :THA

Possible reallocation (team) - :RUS

Unconfirmed MERs (individual) - :CHI:PAK:IND

Possible reallocation (individual) - :ECU:FIN:DEN + :LTU:BEL (if Thailand loses and Russia gains a team)

 

Jumping

Unconfirmed MERs (individual) - :UKR

Possible reallocation (individual) - :POL

 

I fully expect BER (dressage) and THA/CHI/IND (eventing) to re-confirm their MERs in time. For the rest, we will see.

Now here is an adventure unique to equestrian. Martha Del Valle travelled to Germany a year ago to prepare for the Olympics. But then the Olympics got postponed, and since shipping a horse overseas back and forth is so incredibly inconvenient, she was basically forced to stay in Europe for a whole year and find a job. :)

 

Anyways, now she is officially selected to be the Mexican representative in dressage. @mrv86

Thanks for the link.

Mexican news had already briefly covered this story, but now I’ll look forward for a more pro media to cover the story.
