2008 Swedish Dressage Championships

Senior rider Jan Brink and young rider Johanna Dueboje won the 2008 Swedish Dressage Championships for Grand Prix and Young Riders held in Helsingborg, Sweden, October 31 - November 2, 2008.

Brink claimed his seventh and last champion's title aboard Biar (by Magini x Kroket), as this was the last championships in which the leading Swedish dressage rider will be participating with his 17-year old Swedish stallion. Briar is planned to retire from competition at the 2009 World Cup Finals in Las Vegas, U.S.A.

Brink's reign used to be unchallenged. However, this year, he faced some tough competition from his former partner Minna Telde, who won the Grand Prix aboard Johan Ifverson's Don Charlys (by Don Gregory x Inschallah AA). Telde won the class with 70.083 but had Brink on her heels with a 69.708 % score. In the Kur to Music, Brink was supreme again riding to his "Number One" freestyle. The duo scored 74.600 %, won the kur and the overall championship with an average score of 72.154. The silver medal went to Telde who finished third in the kur on 72.550%. Maria Eriksson and her chestnut Galliano (by Labrador x Collin) claimed the bronze medal after finishing second in the kur with 73.100%. Their average championship score was 70.987%.

"This is our seventh gold medal together and it is especially cool that we were able to win it in Helsingborg, which is my home riding club," Jan Brink said. "This is also Briar's last Swedish Championships, which makes it a bit special. Briar can go another Championship, but I want to end with him at the top, so this will be his last season."

In the young riders division Johanna DueBoje reigned supreme winning all three championship rounds with Brownie, a Swedish warmblood gelding by Bernstein x Ganesco offspring, bred by Ester and Karl-Erik Jönsson. The winners obtained an average score of 68.953%. The silver medal went to Sanna Edsmar on Pay Back TP (by Come Back II x Bernstein) who finished with an 66.891 % average. Emilie Nyreröd and her sympathetic Swedish liver chestnut Milca (by Briar x Brisad) earned the bronze with an 66.825 % average.
