Dressage Canada, the dressage branch of the Canadian equestrian federation, announced the 2015 Dressage Short and Long Lists. The horse/rider combinations were selected based on criteria that considered 2014 competition results.
The short lists contain the Grand Prix combinations, divided in A, B and C-teams, whereas the long list includes Canada's top small tour pairs.
