ARAB SHOWJUMPING STARS READY TO COMPETE AT CSIO5* LA BAULE A ROLEX EQUESTRIAN SERIES EVENT
Some of the best showjumping riders from the Arab world will be in France this week to compete against other world class riders at CSIO5* La Baule, a Rolex Series Equestrian event (3 of 7).
A strong team of four top riders from Saudi Arabia will compete in the Nations Cup Barrière. The squad features Olympic medallists and highly experienced athletes, including Abdullah Alsharbatly, Ramzy Al Duhami, Abdulrahman Alrajhi, and Khaled Almobty, who arrives in fighting form following a notable top-10 finish in the Rolex Grand Prix of Rome. With fresh successes under their belts from Spruce Meadows, both Al Sharbatly and Alrajhi will be flying in from Canada.
They will be joined by Egypt’s leading international star, Nayel Nassar, who is also set to compete at La Baule for the first time following impressive results at the LGCT in Cannes.
These riders will take on a tough global field over the coming weekend, aiming to bring home some wins.
