Seven Australians make first FEI Young Rider Rankings
Young Rider rankings for dressage have been released by the FEI for the first time and Australian riders have achieved very well on a worldwide basis.
Mary Seefried, Chair of Australian Dressage Committee was full of praise for the young riders and their support teams.
“It is a credit to them and their coaches but also to our organising committees who have been putting on the events and classes for these riders to qualify, providing a great training ground for our future senior Australian representatives.”
