The Dutch equestrian federation has announced a November 1 update of the dressage squads from pony to Grand Prix level.
At the end of the summer show season and looking forwards to the 2019 new show year, several combinations will make the transition to another level due to having reached the age limit. Also the sale of some horses/ponies have altered the composition of the squads.
The Dutch squad listed combinations receive coaching from the Dutch team trainers and are selectable for international shows and championships.
