It became a Swedish success in Tokyo.

Fredricson won a silver medal in the individual competition where all Swedish crews were in the fight for a medal.

But there will not be much rest for either the national team captain or Peder Fredricson - when the European Championships start at the end of August.

- I think we will have a great team, but it will not be the same team.

These horses need to recover, but fortunately we have good regrowth and strong riders just below, he says and continues:

- I hope to be able to put together a strong team, or I know that I will put a strong team to the starting line, then we will see how far it goes.

Short recovery time

It will not be a long recovery time for Peder Fredricson who must be ready on August 30.

The question is whether he has time to fully recover.

- Yes, I think so.

Now I have come home and it is the first morning I woke up at home for a while.

I'm already eager to go out to the stable and see how the horses are doing, says Fredricson.
