Indian equestrian Anush Agarwalla clinches silver at CDI Hagen

Indian equestrian star Anush Agarwalla secured a silver medal at the prestigious Concours de Dressage International (CDI) Hagen in Germany, scoring 70.94% aboard his mare Floriana. Competing against some of the world’s finest riders, Agarwalla impressed international judges with a polished and expressive test that showcased harmony, technical precision, and artistry. He described the result as a testament to his partnership with Floriana, adding that competing in Germany, where dressage is deeply revered, made the achievement even more special.

CDI Hagen, held at the Luttinghof equestrian complex, is one of Europe’s most competitive dressage events, and Agarwalla’s podium finish underscores his rising stature on the global stage. His silver medal strengthens his international ranking and signals strong prospects for upcoming FEI events. Agarwalla has been steadily establishing himself as one of India’s leading equestrian athletes, with his partnership with Floriana evolving into one of the sport’s most compelling combinations. Last month, he also impressed at Belgium Dressage Events, finishing fourth with a score of 68.85%, further cementing his reputation as a consistent performer at the highest level.
