In the usual lyrical style, Carsten Sostmeier, ARD equestrian expert since 1991, comments on the dressage competitions at the Olympic Games in Tokyo. On Tuesday it was about the dressage team decision. The German team with Dorothee Schneider on Showtime, Isabell Werth on Bella Rose and Jessica von Bredow-Werndl on Dalera Gold won gold, and Sostmeier’s comment was brilliant.
“The rider is sitting on her mare as if painted on it.
Wonderful! The interplay between load capacity and thrust and load capacity, passage, strong trot, passage – very nice.
You know, when you look at Dalera and Jessica von Bredow-Werndl in the dressage arena, somehow you get the feeling that this mare not only has to carry her rider in her back, but also in her heart. “
