Press Release – Monday, 26 July 2010

 

With the 2010 World Equestrian Games (WEG) looming the final selection for Australian based riders in all eight WEG disciplines is being completed. The Sydney International Three Day Event is proud to be hosting a showcase of the sports, ensuring Australia’s elite equestrian athletes will all be at the Sydney International Equestrian Centre ten years after the Sydney 2000 Olympic games was held there.

 

A showcase of Grand Prix Dressage will be combined with Para Equestrian Dressage and the Eventing CCI4* Dressage on Friday 27 August for a full day of viewing pleasure for the dressage enthusiast. With free entry to the event on the dressage days this is an extremely rare opportunity to watch the elegance and beauty of equestrian sport.

 

The Australian based WEG contenders for Grand Prix Dressage are Rozzie Ryan and Rachael Sanna. Four other elite dressage combinations will also be invited to compete alongside these talented women in the main arena on Friday.

 

Rachael Sanna (Glossodia, NSW) competed at the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games, finishing sixth in the Dressage Teams event. She also competed at the 2002 and 2006 World Equestrian Games and at the 1999 World Cup Final in Germany. Rachael is married to one of Australia’s leading show jumpers, George, and is currently campaigning the talented stallion Jaybee Alabaster.

 

Rozzie Ryan (Heatherbrae, NSW) first represented Australia at the World Equestrian Games in Stockholm in 1990. Rozzie is married to one of Australia’s leading riders in both dressage and eventing, Heath and is currently campaigning the powerful stallion Jive Magic. Heath won the 2008 Sydney Three Day Event on Mystery Whisper (pictured) and will also be competing in the 2010 Sydney three day event.

 

The CCI4* Eventing contenders include Sydney 2000 Gold medallist Stuart Tinney, three silver medallists from the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Megan Jones, Sonja Johnson and Shane Rose and the up and coming Chris Burton who is yet to represent Australia but his rising form is placing him directly in the selectors sights.
