Germany’s Andreas Dibowski went into third in the European Eventing Championships dressage with FRH Corrida earlier today (23 September). The pair performed a very polished and willing test for score of 25.6.

“I’ve had a very good few weeks with her after Tokyo – she was so fit and so motivated for the next competitions and also in her training and so I expected a good result,” Andreas said after his European Eventing Championships dressage test with the 12-year-old mare by Contendro. “I was very, very hopeful to come in with a score over 70%. I tried to do the best work today and the judges would see that and I’m really happy – she gave me the feeling that I could take a risk.”
