The Opening Ceremony will be a spectacular event, with the Seine replacing the usual track as a venue, and the quays will become spectator stands.

The equestrian disciplines, that will unfold on the magnificent grounds of Versailles, kick off tomorrow, with the Eventing Team Dressage.

Having bred a horse competing in the Olympic Games is the highest achievement that a breeder can have. We are proud of these breeders! Without their vision and dedication, the level of the sport would not be where it is today. Breeders from 37 WBFSH studbooks are represented at the Olympics, with 73 dressage horses, 78 eventing horses, and 95 jumping horses.

We wish the riders and their horses the best of luck!
