Enjoy top dressage at The Dutch Masters

Enjoying dressage at the highest level during the FEI Dressage World Cup at The Dutch Masters will be guaranteed. The Dutch Masters has been part of the FEI Dressage World Cup series since its inception in 1985 and has hosted the Final multiple times. The Dutch Masters is the final qualifier for the Final which will be held in Leipzig, Germany, from 6 to 10 April.

The German Olympic champion and number one in the world, Jessica von Bredow-Werndl, had already confirmed. She will bring her Olympic horse TSF Dalera BB to the Brabanthallen. Jessica who seems to be unbeatable at the moment has been at the start in 's-Hertogenbosch before. In 2017 and 2018 she was there with Zaire. "I am looking forward to coming to The Dutch Masters again. It is a super well organised event with a lot of attention to detail. For us riders and our horses the conditions are absolutely top notch!" Isabell Werth will also be at the start with the 12-year-old stallion DSP Quantaz, whom she has had under the saddle since May 2019. This son of Quaterback is called a promise for the future. Last year they managed to win the Freestyle to Music at the prestigious CDIO Aachen.
