Besides Shaikh Mohammed, UAE’s official riders include Shaikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Dubai Crown Prince; Shaikh Majid bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Chairman of the Culture and Arts Authority in Dubai; Shaikh Rashid bin Dalmuk Al Maktoum and Ali Al Mouhairi. Riders from 58 countries will compete in the world’s prestigious endurance title in the 160km distance race.
The UAE team are expected to win top titles under the leadership of Shaikh Mohammed. Shaikh Mohammed finished first as the UAE team won the 160km Stars Challenge race at Austin Park in England on July 25 this year. The race came as part of the UAE endurance team’s preparations for the World Endurance Championships. This will be the sixth edition of the Games which are held every four years and run by the Federation Equestre Internationale. For the first time, the games will be hosted by a city in the US.
The Games comprise world championships for eight equestrian sports — show jumping, dressage, eventing, driving, reining, vaulting, endurance and para-equestrian.
The inaugural games were held in 1990 in Stockholm, with the most recent being held in Aachen, Germany, and have never taken place outside of Europe, until now.
The 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games in Kentucky will represent the largest equestrian sporting event ever held in the US. —
