Para-Equestrian Dressage at the 2014 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games™ in Normandy (FRA) will see a record-breaking 33 nations and 100 riders and horses compete for medals at the prestigious La Prairie racecourse venue, just a few hundred metres from the centre of Caen.

“Para-Equestrian Dressage will be the biggest it has ever been at a World Games”, said Trond Asmyr, FEI Director, Dressage and Para-Equestrian Dressage. “Sixty riders and horses from 16 countries competed at the Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games 2010 in Kentucky, where Para-Equestrian Dressage made its début on the World Games programme.

“At this year’s Games, we will see more than double the number of nations competing, and of the 12 countries taking part in their first World Games, three will be doing so in Para-Equestrian Dressage. Hong Kong will compete as a team, and the US Virgin Islands and Latvia will each be represented by individual athletes.”
