CHIO Aachen begins!
CHIO
Aachen, the most sublime equestrian competition, begins
tomorrow. From 15th to 20th June 1999 show jumping,
dressage and carriage driving competitions will take
place in the wonderful German city Bad Aachen for their
101st time. It is a compliment to the organising committee
to already have received confirmations from such elite
dressage riders as Isabell Werth (Rheinberg), Olympic
gold medal winner, World and European Champion; Nadine
Capellmann-Biffar (Würselen), Team World Champion;
and Alexandra Simons-de Ridder (Aachen), who all have
stated their intention to participate in Aachen, weeks
before the actual closing date for entries. In addition
to the internationally successful German dressage and
show jumping riders, participants from guest nations
will also be competing in the Albert-Vahle-Arena again.
A definite confirmation has already been received from
the top quartet of the Netherlands: the show jumpers
Emile Hendrix, Jeroen Dubbeldam, Peter Geerink and Rob
Ehrens. From the neighbouring Belgium, Ludo and Johan
Philippaerts will again start in Aachen.
Conjoined to the event, the Westphalian Verband offers
a unique collection of top dressage
horse for auction. The young dressage stars are
presented by the Westfalen Auctions Team between the
dressage tests and breaks. Join horsesdaily.com
