Dubai International Endurance Village, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. From Wednesday 24 February until Saturday 27 February 2021.

This was the thirteenth edition of the Dubai Crown Prince Festival and it was clear to see that the number of entries was down compared to previous years, but the intensity and battles for victory were perhaps even better than usual.

The long weekend was a pure display of supremacy by F3 Stables, owned by Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammed Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and the force behind this festival. The stables entered three of the four races and won all three of them.

But also worth mentioning is the feat of Laetitia Glorian – FRA, who managed to start and end all four races of the festival with very respectable finishes. In the ladies race she came in 15th place with Django Des Graves – ABH Endurance Stables; in the Private Stables race 40th place with Darley Des Aubepines – Bin Daeen Private Stables; in the Al Yamamah race in 21st position with Torchwood Jazz Paws – Al Aasfa 3 Endurance Stables; and in the Dubai Crown Prince Endurance Cup in 13th position with Eus Royal Viper – ABH Endurance Stables...

Great Britain: Golden Horseshoe Ride Off for 2021

EGB.Myclubhouse.co.uk

25 February 2021

It is with great regret that, as the current organisers of the Golden Horseshoe Ride, we have made the decision that we will be unable to organise the event in 2021. The ride was due to be run over the weekend of the 22/23rd May. However, the Government’s recent announcement of the “Road Map” to lift current restrictions on the hospitality industry will only allow our family business, The Dartmoor Inn at Lydford, to reopen on the 17th May at the earliest. With all 4 family members heavily involved in the starting up and running of the pub, after being closed since the 30th December, this timing is very unfortunate and we need to concentrate on the business and its recovery as a priority.

The good news is that we have agreed that we will run GHS in its full format for one last time in 2022, and hope that a new organiser can be found for 2023.

February 19 2021

THE FEI Endurance Young Rider World Championships are rapidly approaching. As the first ever to represent The Bahamas at this event, Reine Pagliaro and her mount Beautiful Knightmare (known as Beau) are training, refining, and doing all the research necessary to represent The Bahamas to the best of their ability.

The competition is scheduled for September 6-10 in Ermelo, The Netherlands.

To put it simply, Endurance is a cross-country marathon on horseback. An FEI 2* event, the Young Rider World Championships distance is 75 miles (120 km).

The qualification process has been gruelling: first Pagliaro and Beau had to complete a certain number of qualifying races before moving up to the International, or FEI, level.

After achieving FEI status, the pair then had to finish two 120km races which was accomplished in March 2020. Reine rides with the Stiyu Endurance Team at Muscogee Farms in Eatonton, Georgia. The Stiyu research team has been scouting competition venues with weather and footing similar to that of The Netherlands. Luckily, the weather in middle Georgia where the pair train is almost identical to the weather in Ermelo...
