Rozzie Ryan and Susan Duddy’s Donna Carrera scored 69.600% at the FEI World Cup Dressage final in s'Hertogenbosch, Holland, yesterday 29 March.

Saturday, 29 March 2008 - Grand Prix Freestyle

After a disappointing Grand Prix, the pair achieved this respectable result in the Freestyle finishing 11th out of 15 riders competing. This is probably the best freestyle result ever achieved by an AUSbased rider. Well done, Rozzie!

Anky Van Grunsven (NED) aboard IPS Salinero won the Final with a score 85.200% ahead of Grand Prix winners Isabell Werth (GER) and Warum Nicht FRH with 82.600%.

Thursday, 17 March 2008 - Grand Prix

Isabell Werth (GER) riding Warum Nicht FRH defended their title from last year by winning with a score of 75.083%. Second place went to Isabell’s rival Anky Van Grunsven (NED) aboard IPS Salinero with a score of 74.750%. Anky has won the World Cup final a total of eight times, three times aboard Salinero.
Rozzie and the 13 year-old Donna Carrera scored 65.500% which left them in 15th position.  Rozzie has been training at the Academy Bartels in the Netherlands and plans to go to the two Olympic nomination events; Weisbaden CDI 3* (09-12 May) and Lingen (GER)CDI 5* (30 May – 01 June).

Australian Chef d’Equipe, Deb MacNicol said: “Rozzie was pleased with Donna and somewhat disappointed with the score.”

Well done Rozzie!
