Team Fredericks firmly in the Olympic front runners
The Australian team front-runners for the Olympics have been announced Clayton Fredericks and three horses, Be My Guest, Dunge’s Laurent Rosé and Bendigo III are in the team, while Lucinda Fredericks and Prada are part of the Australian national “A” squad, the shadow team.
On the Equestrian Australia website Brett Mace, EA’s High Performance Manager, explained the composition of the Shadow Teams. “The “Elite” listed combinations are presently the front-runners for the Olympic and Paralympic teams. However, I am sure our “A” Squad members will make the most of every opportunity to claim a place on the team through exceptional performances in the lead up to London.” he said.
Clayton commented: “I am thrilled at the news of the three horses in the Olympic Squad and it also looks likely I will be the first Australian eventer to qualify for the London Olympics for 2012 due to being the highest ranked individual in the Olympic Rankings. My prospects for the next Olympics with the strength of my team looks solid and I also have some other horses to qualify this year including Ben Along Time and Brookleigh. I would like to thank all the support that has been given from the horse owners, special Individuals, EA,WAIS, ASC and the AOC and reassure all my supporters I am working hard to do my part in turning the Silver team medal from 2008 into double Gold in London.”
