Team France look to be a team to beat at the 2024 Olympics on home soil after clinching their 4th FEI Eventing Nations Cup win this season.

Italy’s persistence in the FEI Eventing Nations Cup Series paid off as they picked up the golden ticket for the Paris Olympics next year.

The sixth leg of this important Olympic-qualifying series took place at Avenches, Switzerland; next stop is Bromont, QC.

Just four more competitions remain in this eventing series, concluding at Boekelo where the final Paris Olympics team place will be awarded.

The experienced squad led from start to finish at the Millstreet event in Ireland; Australia and China secure Olympic eventing qualification.

Four strong performances over the Ian Stark-designed cross-country course gave the French team the edge over Great Britain.

The opening leg of the series saw a influential cross-country with lots of eliminations and no entries finishing within the time allowed.

In this final leg of the series, an all-female British team led the way, ahead of New Zealand, France and Germany.

This victory marked the second time in a row Belgium has claimed the prestigious Nations Cup prize in Arville, edging Germany and Italy.

Strong performances by Colleen Loach saw her 2nd and 3rd in the CCI4*-S; Team Australia had only one rider complete.
