The Belgian Olympic committee just formally announced the selection of the Belgian three-day event team for the Olympic Games in London. I am thrilled to report that the US based pair of Carl Bouckaert and Mensa have made the team! In no particular order:
Karin Donckers and Gazelle de la Brasserie
Joris Van Springel and Lully des Aulnes
Carl Bouckaert and Mensa
Virginie Caulier and Nepal du Sudre
Marc Rigouts and Dunkas
Carl owns the beautiful Chattahoochee Hills farm and he is one of the true class acts in North American eventing. Carl purchased Mensa from Andrea Leatherman last year to make his Olympic run and they have been training in Europe for the past several months. I couldn’t be happier for him and Mensa as well as all of the other Belgians, including Karin who is an incredibly hard worker. [Equibel] Go Belgium.
