Carl Hester Withdraws from British Team Contention for 2022 World Championships

Carl Hester has officially announced his withdrawal from British team contention for the 2022 World Championships Dressage in Herning in August.

Hester received the catch ride on KK Woodstock from the Swiss Kroll family and Gareth Hughes to replace his injured Olympic mount En Vogue in pursuit of a team spot for Herning.

However, Horse & Hound reported today that the pair did not gell quickly enough to make a last minute attempt to achieve to MER scores at CDI's in June to be eligible for team selection.

Hester and KK Woodstock were supposed to make their show debut at the CDI Wellington Heckfield this weekend, but have withdrawn. Their second MER score was planned to be achieved at the CDI Bolesworth at the end of June, but this event has been cancelled.
