British Eventing Team's Training Session for World Equestrian Games
Friday, September 17 2010
Blenheim Horse Trials spectators were treated to a special training session where British Eventing Team riders selected for the 2010 World Equestrian Games, practiced their dressage test with team dressage coach Tracie Robinson. We were lucky to catch the training sessions of William Fox-Pitt and Cool Mountain and Piggy French with Jakarta.
There was a moment between sessions, where some of the riders had not yet made their way to the arena. To fill the time, Tina Cook and Piggy French took the mike and spoke about their horses and their preparation for the World Equestrian Games.
The British Eventing Team horses will travel to Liège in Belgium on September 21 and will then fly to Cincinnati, OH where they will be quarantined before heading to the Kentucky Horse Park. The British Eventing Team riders have an impressive track record of success at international competitions and they will certainly be a force to be reckoned with in Kentucky.
