Well, Fair Hill isn’t the only event suffering bad weather. We regretfully announce that the 6- and 7-year-old championships at Lion D’Angers has been canceled.
From the Mondial website:
OFFICIAL PRESS RELEASE
Due to the exceptional climatic conditions, and after having studying all the possible alternative solutions of replacement preserving the horses, riders and public security…no satisfying solution could be found.
Consequently, and in accordance with the FEI officials, we have the regret to announce the cancellation of the 2012 Mondial.
Let’s hope Fair Hill doesn’t get to this point! So far, the weather is clear here in Lexington, Kentucky for the Hagyard Midsouth CCI*, but there is a 40% chance of showers predicted later this afternoon. It is not expected to be a heavy downpour, but the way things are going today, who knows what the weather may bring.
