Olympics: Hill named for dressage in NZ team
Auckland equestrian Louisa Hill and her horse Gabana will be New Zealand's sole representatives in the dressage competition at this year's Athens Olympic Games.
Hill, 42, whose selection was confirmed today by the New Zealand Olympic Committee (NZOC), will make her Olympic debut on a horse she has shared much success with this year.
The pair have won the major New Zealand dressage titles, including Dressage Horse of the Year. In Sydney last month they were fourth in the Grand Prix event and won the FEI Grand Prix Special.

AQHA ENCOURAGING PARTICIPATION IN DRESSAGE
In January 2004, the American Quarter Horse Association announced that it would accept dressage test scores for American Quarter Horses and current AQHA members competing at approved U.S. Equestrian/United States Dressage Federation and Canadian Equestrian Federation shows. Riders may turn in their test scores and have them recorded by AQHA.
When the program was implemented, it was set to last for an initial one-year trial period, after which time the AQHA Show Committee will examine the figures to see how many horses have participated, how many exhibitors are AQHA members, and evaluate how the proposed test score table is transferring over into point values. No points will be awarded during this time period. However, the amount of participation during the 2004 trial period will determine the future of the program.
