Australian WEG team candidate Brianna Burgess has withdrawn from the second Australian dressage nomination event for the 2014 World Equestrian Games (WEG). The Australian WEG short listed riders are all set to compete this weekend at the 2014 CDI Deauville.

La Scala has been deemed unfit to compete.

Burgess is the youngest member of Australia's long-list for dressage for WEG 2014 and was one of five riders due to start in the Deauville CDI3* Grand Prix later today.

La Scala will undergo further veterinary assessments in the coming days.

Earlier this week, team candidate Hayley Beresford dropped out from WEG contention as her horse Jaybee Alabaster was not fit enough for Deauville.
