A major setback for American dressage: two months before the World Championships in Aachen, the USA will have to do without their best pair, Christian Simonson and Indian Rock.
Zen Elite Stables announced last few hours : "After much discussion with the team, we have decided not to include Indian Rock in our plans for the summer championships this year. Rocky has given us an incredible season, and we are extremely proud of everything he has accomplished. He has exceeded all our expectations, and we believe the best decision for him is to enjoy a well-deserved rest and take the time to simply be a horse. We firmly believe that to develop great horses for the long term, it is essential to know when to push them and when to allow them to recharge. Rocky has given us an extraordinary journey this year (one we couldn't have dreamed of better), and we want to support him in achieving new successes in the years to come. We are immensely grateful for the support of our entire team and everyone who has cheered Rocky on every step of the way. This summer, we will proudly cheer on the rest of the American team, including Christian and our magnificent 'lion,' Fleau de Baian."
Christian Simonson & Indian Rock took second place in the Fort Worth World Cup Final with a 75.413% in the Grand Prix and an 83.810% in the freestyle.
