The nomination of the team took place after the final German E.C. pony selection trial at the CDI Neubeeren, July 22, 2008. Big absentee in Neubeeren was Carlotta Hassenburger on the former European pony champion Dulcia. The palomino mare sustained an injury a while ago (a laceration on the hoof) and is now recovering. "The laceration has now healed up completely and Dulcia is in training and doing well," Hassenburger told Eurodressage.
