It will be disappointing to thousands of dressage fans. If the producers are sincere, wonder if you can get the right to make a DVD video from this so that you'll get loyalty from the sale later to compensate for the low pay. The job requires one to speak with fluidity and humor, and good connection with the competitors. You are the perfect person for the job. I am sorry to hear that.

After months of trying to secure sponsorship for them, as well as making my schedule free to go out and do the commentary, it has not worked out for me to take part this time around. The budget is so tight that the amount I was offered for working from Wed-Sun was less than I receive for two lessons, and I just can't afford to do it for that. I truly wish I could! Even worse is that, though I told the producers I would be happy to ask Guenter to do it since he will already be out there anyway, they responded with a message saying they were "dumping" the Thursday Grand Prix entirely and would figure out something without my help for Saturday. Needless to say, I am disappointed! It's sad for the sport. RD Well, folks, here’s the skinny on the TV situation for the Dressage World Cup.

It is the name of a production company, just like "20th century Fox". Can you find out what channel is brodcasting the World Cup with you as commentater? Can you post the show-schedule on your website also? I live on West Coast. Thanks. Robert,
