Simone Pearce & All We Need win St. Margarethen CDI3* Grand Prix
By Equestrian Life
Simone Pearce has won the CDI3* Grand Prix at Reiterhof Stückler International Dressage Show in St. Margarethen, Austria riding 10-year-old Rheinländer mare All We Need (All At Once x Friederike, by Fidermark) to a personal best score of 70.609%.
“Despite very trying conditions, a last-minute arena change and a whole lot of rain, she really stayed focused and although we had a few big miscommunications, she managed to settle in the test and gave some very nice work,” said Simone.
As a score “approaching or exceeding 69%” in a CDI3* Grand Prix test, the result counts is one of two required qualifying scores for Paris as per the Competition Criteria section of Australia’s dressage team Nomination Criteria (as well as an FEI MER). Combinations must also demonstrate experience in two CDI3* (or higher) Grand Prix Special tests during the qualifying period.
