Hi Everyone!
This announcement was made by Equestrian Australia today. Nothing final as yet it seems. Congratulations to all three nominees.
“EQUESTRIAN AUSTRALIA OLYMPIC NOMINATIONS
DRESSAGE
On Thursday 7 June, Equestrian Australia’s national Dressage selectors identified the three horse and rider combinations to be nominated to the Australian Olympic Committee for selection to the 2012 Australian Olympic Team.
The horse and rider combinations are:
Lyndal Oatley and Sandro Boy
Kristy Oatley and Clive
Mary Hanna and Sancette
Equestrian Australia’s nomination policy gives athletes 48 hours to lodge an appeal against the nominated team. Equestrian Australia can confirm that during that period, a rider has lodged an appeal which will be heard by an independent tribunal in due course.
During this time Equestrian Australia and the Australian Olympic Committee are unable to make further comment.
The Australian Olympic Committee will announce the Dressage team’s final selection.”
No date was given for the announcement by the Australian Olympic Committee.

Have your say…….what are your thoughts?
Ride well!
