Ludwig and Alexander were withdrawn overnight and will not start the showjumping today due to a strain in a hind leg.
-It is nothing serious and he will soon be back in training, it's a pity but these things happen, the important thing is that he is allright - Alexander is a horse for the future, says Ludwig Svennerståhl in a comment to the Swedish Riding Association, SvRF.
