Equestrian sport: Jens Fredricson misses the Olympics – the horse Markan Cosmopolit injured

Jens Fredricson, together with Markan Cosmopolit, has been involved in taking Sweden to two straight championship golds.

But there won’t be any Olympics this summer.

  • Belief in an Olympic medal key to Paris success for the canoe pair: “We are rarely satisfied”

  • Eric Johansson misses the Olympics

  • – It is of course very sad, but at the same time you know that this is how it is with horses and Cosmo’s well-being of course always comes first, says Fredricson.

    Markan Cosmopolit recently sustained a minor injury at the races in Mannheim, Germany.

    – He is now up and running again, but time is running out and we have therefore decided to cancel the investment towards the Olympics this summer, says Fredricson and continues:

    – Things happen and I never take anything for granted. Now we plan ahead and long-term and let him come back in peace.

    Jens Fredricson, brother of Peder, was among other things involved and took WC gold in 2022 (Herning) and EC gold in 2023 (Milano).
