EIAF Congratulates Australian Equestrian Teams on their results at WEG
The World Equestrian Games are currently being held in Normandy, France and our Australian Teams are certainly doing us proud. Their Eventing results over the weekend has earned them qualification to the 2016 Olympic Games to be held in Rio, Brazil. Olympic medallist, Mary Hanna was the flag bearer for the Australian Team at the Opening Ceremony and found it a great honour to do so. Mary went on to compete with Sancette (moved by EIAF) in the Grand Prix Dressage Team Event (Kristy Oatley, Lyndal Oatley and Maree Tomkinson) scoring a place in the top 10. It was a massive competition weekend with congratulations also going out to Stuart Tinney on Pluto Mio for their fantastic results and a big congratulations to the Australian Eventing Team (Paul Tapner, Sam Griffiths, Shane Rose and Christopher Burton) who finished 5th overall.
