With the unfortunate withdrawal of Beatriz Ferrer-Salat's Delgado due to an injury, Hampton Green Farm's Grandioso III and Daniel Martin Dockx move into the starting line-up for the Spanish Team at the 2012 London Olympic Games. On Sunday, the pair settled into the Olympic barns and facilities and began preparations for Thursday's Grand Prix.[nbsp]
Dani is in good spirits and reports that the horse is in top form. With the retirement of Delgado from the team, Spain's prospects for a medal are compromised, but Team Grandioso is committed to putting in its best performance and upholding the strength of the other two riders--Juan Manuel Munoz on Fuego and Morgan Barbancon on Painted Black.
