With great support from sponsors, Danish Warmblood has succeeded in upgrading their international dressage show to the highest level, a five-star event. The show allows the riders to earn valuable points for the world rankings as well as impressive prize money.

DWB 5-star Dressage will be an important part of the riders’ preparation for the Olympics, and all riders on the Danish short list will compete at the show either in the 5-star or the 3-star competition. National dressage coach Nathalie zu Sayn-Wittgenstein states:
– The competitions in Herning will serve as an observation show prior to the selection of the Olympic team. We get to see the Olympic candidates all together and that will make the competitions very interesting, the coach continues and adds:
– We have to select the A-squad after the DWB 5-star Dressage, which is why the competitions in Herning become extremely important. It will be a huge event, but Herning and the organizers can accommodate it, she concludes.
