    Two PRE Horses on the Winner’s Stand at Spain’s 2022 Absolute Championship


    Silver and Bronze for Malagueño LXXXIII and Quincallo de Indalo

    Sunday concluded a wonderful edition of the Championship of Spain for Dressage and Adapted Dressage, National Criterium and 2022 Master. The 1992 Barcelona Olympic facilities and the Royal Polo Club in Barcelona welcomed the almost two hundred pairs for the 5-day event.

    The best riders in Spain competed for the maximum honors in the Absolute Category, which had 28 participants. The three-round battle—in other words, Grand Prix, Grand Prix Special, and Kür Freestyle—was titanic. A large and important number of Purebred Spanish Horses were there.

    For three days, it was an exciting struggle for the gold medal. The places of the top five fluctuated, with the Freestyle being the turning point for the final position.
