Ralão Dressage

24/04/2026

This weekend, TS Dressage Horses welcomes Miguel Ralão for a training clinic centered on the ongoing development of the program in place.

Working alongside rider Carlos Botero, the focus remains on consistency, correct basics, and the gradual progression that defines long-term results in dressage.

A quiet continuation of the work behind the scenes.

Pleased to take part in another edition of the Lusitano Young Horses Project admissions - an APSL initiative that has supported the training and development of several Lusitano horses in dressage since 2018.

Alongside with colleague Daniel Pinto, it is encouraging to see the continued interest of new riders/breeders/owners applying to join this long-standing project with their horses.

Congratulations to the approved combinations and to all those involved in the ongoing development of the young horses dressage training.

🇵🇹✨ Unforgettable week at European Working Equitation Championship!

“I’m beyond proud, as a trainer and as Portuguese, of what our young Portuguese riders achieved in Les Herbiers at the European Working Equitation Championships!” - Miguel Ralão

🏆 Juniors – At just 12 years old, Carminho Filipe became European Champion with the Lusitano Horigami, and together with Lara Carreira, Constança Portugal, and Leonor Vilas Boas, they also claimed team gold.

🏆 Young Riders – Nicole Silva, with Hábil de Sena, won individual gold and, with António Silva, Renata Costa, and Ana Rita Augusto, secured another team gold for Portugal.

“I couldn’t be prouder — these riders are the future of a legacy our seniors have built, winning World and European titles for more than a decade.” – Miguel Ralão

This new generation is full of talent, passion, and love for the horse. The future of Working Equitation is in excellent hands. 🌟
