The Reem Acra FEI World Cup Dressage is an annual international dressage series involving the world's best dressage horses and riders. It has been held since 1985. == History == The history of the Dressage World Cup is closely connected to the history of the Grand Prix Freestyle. In 1984 Joep Bartels (former rider, husband of Tineke Bartels and father of Imke Schellekens-Bartels) saw Reiner Klimke and ''Ahlerich'' the flying one tempi changes to the Olympic hymn at the 1984 Summer Olympics. Inspired by this, he thought of a freestyle dressage competition. One year later, the first Dressage World Cup was held. Each qualifier for the World Cup Final, which is held at the end of each season, consists of two competitions (Grand Prix de Dressage and Grand Prix Freestyle). From 1985 to 2001 both competitions counted for the qualifier results, which were part of the world cup ranking for this season. Since 2002, only the Grand Prix Freestyle has counted for the world cup ranking.〔(FEI in the Spotlight 52/2007: Making the best of time, the FEI World Cup Dressage 2007/2008 ), Equestrian Federation of Singapore〕 From 1985 to 2004 Joep Bartels was the director of the Dressage World Cup.〔(Das Geheimnis der niederländischen Dressur-Erfolge ), Dieter Ludwig, July 18, 2010 (german)〕〔(FEI World Cup Dressage Celebrates 25th Anniversary ), Pressemitteilung der FEI, March 24, 2010〕 Reem Acra is the sponsor of the Dressage World Cup since the season 2010/2011. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dressage World Cup」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
