Norwegian Grand Prix rider Camilla Kalseth has withdrawn from competing on the Norwegian team at the 2013 European Dressage Championships in Herning, Denmark, on 20 - 25 August 2013. Her horse Carte d'Or has sustained an injury.
Although the injury is minor, the 14-year old Danish bred gelding by Solos Carex x Cannon Row xx will not be fit in time for the Championships.
"Carte is on the mend, but he needs a bit more time," Kalseth told Dressur Sa Klart. "We still have many good years ahead of us. It is of course annoying to miss the Championships, for myself and the team, but we'll come back strong."
Norway has no reserve combination and will now field a team of three at the Europeans, including Lillan Jebsen, Cathrine Rasmussen and Ellen Birgitte Farbrot.
