Endurance officials in Britain have voiced support for the FEI in its efforts to sort out the issues in the sport which led to last week’s suspension of the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Their backing came as the world governing body spelt out the practical implications of the suspension.

“We hope that the necessary changes are made to the FEI’s satisfaction,” Hudson sad.
