Dressage is an equestrian sport. It can be done on its own or as part of three-phase eventing, which consists of dressage, cross-country and show jumping (stadium jumping).

I'm not too sure but on a website called Pippa funnell - team GB (you can find it by searching Pippa funnell Olympics 2012) it gives a bit of a clue whereas to whether she is competing in the Olympics 2012 if you read a recent biography she might say whether she is competing :)

Great Britain's 2000 dressage team was made up of Emile Faurie, Carl Hester, Richard Davison, and Kirsty Mepham. These four athletes also competed in individual dressage. Members of the jumping team were Geoff Billington, Michael Whitaker, John Whitaker, and Carl Edwards. These four athletes also competed in individual jumping. Members of the eventing team were Pippa Funnell, Leslie Law, Jeanette Breakwell, and Ian Stark. They won the silver medal at the 2000 Games. Mary Elizabeth Thompson-King and Karen Straker-Dixon competed in individual eventing along with Ian Stark.

The Anglo-Arabian Linon was ridden to an Olympic silver medal for France in Dressage in 1928 and 1932, as well as a team gold in 1932, and another French Anglo-Arabian, Harpagon, was ridden to a team gold medal and an individual silver in dressage at the 1948 Olympics (Wikipedia)

As of February 19, 2008 no Olympic Games are scheduled to be in the United States. The 2008 Summer Olympics are scheduled for Beijing and the 2012 Summer Olympics are scheduled for London. The 2010 Winter Olympics are scheduled for Vancouver (Canada) and the 2014 Winter Olympics are scheduled for Sochi (Russia).

I have a box of cards and envelopes for each of the 1984 olympic games with stamps to match the game.

equestrian eventing is a sport on horseback including three disiplines: dressage, showjumping and crosscountry. In each disipline you will recieve a number of penalties which will go towards your total score, determining who has won.

For each round of pureshowjumping on the first refusal you receive 4 faults, on the second you receive 8 faults (totaling 12) and on the third you are eliminated.

This is in Australia, it may be different in other countries, I don't know.

Australian quarantine rules were too strict at the time to allow the horses into the country so the equestrian events were held in Stockholm, Sweden in June, five months before the rest of the Games.

They're called fly nets, and their purpose is to keep insects out of the horse's ears. Show horses often have the hair inside their ears clipped for appearance, but this allows insects to enter and distract the horse. A horse usually shown in an insect free area may have to wear a fly net when shown in an area that has insects since it will take time for the hair to grow back.

I have also heard that they are sometimes used for the sound. Yes they are called flyn nets, however if the horses ears are stufffed with cotton wool or ear plugs (as some horses are sensitive to sound and put off by clapping,speakers etc) then these provide a smart way of covering the fulffy cotton wool. As you can imagine in something the size of the Olympics you wouldn't want your horse not concentrating. Hope this helps.

Through the 2008 Games in Beijing, three athletes have won 8 Olympic medals in dressage ...

1) Reimer Klimke - Germany: won 5 medals (5 gold) in team competition and 3 medals (1 gold, 2 bronze) in individual competition.

2) Isabell Werth - Germany: won 4 medals (4 gold) in team competition and 4 medals (1 gold, 3 silver) in individual competition.

3) Anky van Grunsven - Netherlands: won 4 medals (4 silver) in team competition and 4 medals (3 gold, 1 silver) in individual competition.

Werth and van Grunsven competed at the 2008 Games and, should they compete at the 2012 Games in London, will probably go ahead of Klimke (final competition was the 1988 Games) in total dressage medals won.

William Fox-Pitt on Tamarillo won Burghley Horse Trials in 2008.
