As a result Horse Sport Ireland has asked the Olympic Council of Ireland to hold off on ratifying Denis Lynch for the Games.
Lantinus, which tested positive for a banned substance during the Beijing Olympics in 2008, has now tested positive for hypersensitivity according to a press statement issued by the Aachen show organisers.
Denis Lynch decided not to appeal the disqualification.
