This week kicks off an event we’re always keen to watch: the FEI WBFSH Eventing World Breeding Championship for Young Horses in Le Lion d’Angers, France. This championship event attracts the cream of the 6- and 7-year-old event horse crop each year, and while we’re missing an American contingent this year due to the coronavirus pandemic, there is no shortage of talent on display this weekend.
Tilly Berendt is our eagle eye on the ground in France this weekend, but if you’d like to see the action as it happens, the FEI will be live streaming each phase of competition starting in the wee hours of tomorrow morning (if you’re a night owl, now’s your time to shine).
