Entries are now live for the final CCI5* of the year in France at Les 5 Etoiles de Pau October 23-26! We’ve got a full field of 68 horses entered for 51 riders representing 11 countries. We’ll have a much more robust entry preview coming your way soon, but we wanted to at least give you a peek while we work on it! Quickly though, or the U.S., we’ll have nine horses entered:
- Jenny Caras and Sommersby
- Tiana Coudray and Cancaras Girl
- Tiana Coudray and D’Artagnan
- Cosby Green and Highly Suspicious
- Cosby Green and Jos UFO de Quidam
- Emily Hamel and Corvett
- Boyd Martin and Cooley Nutcracker
- Boyd Martin and Fedarman B
- Grace Taylor and Game Changer
But that’s not all! We’ll have a pretty impossible field to handicap, with Tom McEwen (GBR) entering JL Dublin as well as Brookfield Quality, Laura Collett (GBR) with Dacapo and Hester, Tim and Jonelle Price (NZL) with eight horses between them (this will be whittled down closer to the event), and oh – who’s that? One Ballaghmor Class on the list for Oliver Townend (GBR)?
We could go on and on, but you’ll have to wait (im)patiently just a bit longer for the full deep dive. You can, however, see the full list for yourself here.
