The date of the much awaited debut in the competition arena of Totilas and his new rider Matthias Alexander Rath has been announced.

First time out

According to Rath's website, the combination will be entering the dressage ring for the first time together at the show in Hagen a.T.W. (4 to 8 May 2011) to make their tournament debut in front of the public. Rath said on his website: "I am very much looking forward to competing with Totilas for the first time in public. He is a fascinating and superb partner and the last months have been very emotional for both of us. Hagen will be the first touchstone for us on our joint path to the 2012 Olympic Games." 

Intensive coaching

Rath is trained by his father, Klaus-Martin Rath, who said: "Over the last few weeks we came to the decision to already open our outdoor season in Hagen, which offers an excellent infrastructure and the best conditions for our first show outing." 

Critical eyes

Rath said he is aware that countless media representatives and dressage fans from all over the world will be watching him. Over the past few weeks Rath's press agency has received press enquiries from Australia, the USA, Spain, France, Holland, Sweden, Japan, England and many other countries.
