The German Equestrian Federation has announced the team that will compete in the FEI Nations Cup leg at the 2025 CDIO Aachen on 2 - 6 July 2025.
The team was chosen based on the result achieved at this weekend's German Dressage Championships in Balve, which counts as first of two German team selection trials for the 2025 European Dressage Championships in Crozet.
The team named for the CDIO leg in Aachen is most likely the one going to Crozet, unless other riders are able to outscore one of the team riders in the CDI-tour in Aachen. Two spots seem secure (Werth on Wendy, Wandres on Bluetooth). Hemmer needs to prove consistency. The fourth spot is wide open.

- Katharina Hemmer - Denoix PCH
- Sönke Rothenberger - Fendi
- Frederic Wandres - Bluetooth OLD
- Isabell Werth - Wendy (Reserve horse: Special Blend
- Reserve: Matthias Rath - Destacado FRH
