Athletes and horses representing ten nations have arrived in Omaha, Nebraska, for the 2023 FEI Dressage World Cup™ Final. On Tuesday, competitors and their mounts were welcomed to the CHI Health Center Omaha for familiarization and horse inspection.
Horse and rider combinations were allowed 30 minutes each to introduce his or her horse to the ring. Later in the day, athletes presented their horses to a ground jury for inspection, all of which were approved to move on to the first round of competition.
