Battle for the conservation in Dublin between Spain, Holland, Switzerland and Sweden.

The show in Dublin is a show that we would like to go once again. But if it could in a nice relaxing atmosphere.
2 years ago it was a very nice atmosphere over there, Belgium wasn’t in danger for downgrading and Withney was second in the Grand Prix. The winner of the Grand Prix of Dublin in 2008 was Jessica Kuerten. Not so bad to end up behind such a top rider as her, Patrick was also called out as best rider of the show. Since then we’ve not been in Dublin anymore. Last year it was very exciting and we stay in to follow the results of the Belgians. Everybody knows the story. Belgium and Great Britain obtained the same points. The FEI decided that both countries had to downgrade, Belgium agreed but Great Britain didn’t. They fought back and got there right. This year Great Britain did a super job and they’re not in the danger zone to downgrade anymore. Spain, Holland, Switzerland and Sweden are. It will get very exciting in Dublin later on.
For who do we need to cheer? We know in every team all the riders but let us cheer for Holland!
