Equestrian Australia has announced the athletes they will be sending to CHIO Aachen, which runs from June 27-July 6, for the CCIO4*-S that’s run in Nations Cup format with team and individual competitors.
Representing the Australians in Germany will be a team consisting of:
- Sammi Birch and Finduss FPB
- Andrew Cooper and Sharvalley Thunder
- Kevin McNab and Faro IMP
- Shane Rose and Easy Turn
This team is a mix of veteran and rising star talent. Shane Rose’s Easy Turn is coming off a serious hot streak of 4* wins, most recently winning the 4*-S at the Adelaide Equestrian Festival last month. Sammi Birch and Finduss PFB will be coming off a top-25 finish at Badminton earlier in May, and Kevin McNab has an exciting up-and-comer in Faro IMP, who most recently finished second in the 4*-L at Strzegom in Poland.
Eventing will run from July 4-6 at CHIO Aachen, and you can learn more information here.
