Germany's Hans-Dieter Dreher had set his mind on representing Germany in the CHIO Aachen Nations Cup. In a reaction to German newssite, Spring-reiter, Dreher announced he is forced to forfait. His horse Elysium is not fit. "I do believe he got an infection," reacts Dreher.
Last week, the German rider started in Geesteren with his Holsteiner. Normally, they would have competed in the CHIO Nations Cup in Aachen on Thursday. That will now change. According to a conversation with national coach Otto Becker, it has been revealed that Jörne Sprehe with Hot Easy will be the replacement combination for the German team.
