Photo by Tilly Berendt.What a treat were now on our second Olympic team announcement of the day, following the release of Japans line-up earlier this morning.Now, its Switzerland who weve got our eyes on.Four horses and riders have just been revealed by the Swiss Federation, and while its not been confirmed yet which three will be on the team proper and which will go to Paris as travelling reserve, its still rather an exciting day to be an eventing fan, all things considered.The four selected horses and riders are as follows:Robin Godel and Grandeur de Lully sixteen-year-old Swiss Sport Horse gelding (Greco de Lully CH x Miola, by Apartos) owned by Jean-Jacques FnfschillingMlody Johner and Toubleu de Rueire seventeen-year-old Selle Franais gelding (Mr Blue x La Guna de Rueire) owned byPeter Thrler & Heinz-Gnter WickenhuserNadja Minder and Toblerone seventeen-year-old Swiss Warmblood gelding (Summer Song x Medelyne, breeding unknown) owned byNicole BasieuxFelix Vogg and Dao de lOcean eleven-year-old Selle Franais gelding (Kannan x Heddy, by Heraldik) owned byPhoenix Eventing SrlFelix Vogg and Dao de lOcean. Photo by Tilly Berendt.Its an exciting team, whichever way it unfolds, for Swiss chef dequpe Dominik Burger, dressage coach Gilles Ngovan, cross country coach Andrew Nicholson and jumping coach Markus Fuchs: Robin, Mlody, and Felix were each part of the Tokyo Olympics line-up, though only Mlody returns with the same horse, and Nadja, though just 24, has already become a stalwart of the Swiss team too, with World and European Championships behind here. This year, Robin and Grandeur de Lully have won two CCI4*-S classes in a row, at Strzegom and Avenches, the latter of which also crowned them the Swiss National Champions, while Mlody and Toubleu de Rueire have been in the top six of their three international starts. Nadja and Toblerone completed their five-star debut at Pau in October and have been fourth at Strzegoms CCI4*-S this spring, as well as top twenty finishers in Luhmhlens smoking hot final qualifier last week. Felix and Dao de lOcean were winners in the CCI4*-S in Wiesbaden and second at Avenches CCIO4*-S. Its been 64 years since Switzerland won an Olympic medal they were team silver medallists in 1960 in Rome, while Anton Bhler and Gay Spark were individual bronze medallists that year but we reckon if any line-up is going to give the fairytale ending tothe inexorable rise of the Swiss front over the last Olympic cycle, this is the one.Theres also a stellar line-up of alternates named, which are as follows:Robin Godel and Global DHINadja Minder and Top Jobs JaliscoPatrick Regg and Fifty FiftyPhilip Ryan and AmansaraFelix Vogg and Colero (subject to gaining a confirmation result at Strzegom this week)Felix Vogg and Cartania
