Dressage-News FEI
Iryna Lis and Problesk will make their first trip by aircraft by winning the Central European League in Warsaw thus qualifying for the FEI World Cup™ Final in Las Vegas. In Torwar Hall in Poland the Central European Final of the FEI World Cup™ Dressage was organised and took place almost in the same hours as the Western-European Final of the FEI World Cup™ Dressage in ‘s-Hertogenbosch. The FEI Central European League Word Cup Final was a contest of truly European level, in which the Eastern participants have always played an important role. A wonderful audience and most enthusiastic organisation heartily welcomed all competitors who happily used the first test Grand Prix to get used to the audience and the great atmosphere.
Iryna Lis, a clean-cut Byelorussian lady showing Problesk, a healthy 17 year old home bred trakehner gelding, was in the lead before entering the show grounds of Warsaw. She was too happy to win the Freestyle of the FEI World Cup™ Dressage today. “What a wonderful award for my true and healthy champion Problesk!”, she commented. “Travelling to Las Vegas and competing there in the Final will be a special honour for me and my horse, as it will be his debut in flying. Problesk had not travelled by plane previously before and now this will probably his last international outing in a championship”, the student of teacher Finnish Kyra Kyrklund said. She travelled to compete at the WEG in Jerez 2002 all by car and trailer. As all European horses will fly from Amsterdam and Iryna’s trainer Kyra Kyrklund still has to make up her mind to compete in Las Vegas, Iryna Lis does strongly hope to be partnered with her trainer and her horse Max in the aircraft to the FEI World Cup™ Dressage Final…
