Eventhough the injury is minor Jung and his team want to take no risk. Last weekend Takinou was topfit Jung said to St. Georg. But during a routine check they found a small injury that mostlikely comes from a "training" competition in the 2*course at Kreuth last weekend.
It is already the second time Jung has to take Takinou out of the race. He was also planning to ride him at the Olympics in Rio. Then an small fever had Jung and his team reconsider and finally taking Sam to claim a second Olympic title.
