World Equestrian Games Entries In Principle

Early indications for the 2010 Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games are measured through a process called Entries in Principle, whereby nations inform the Organizing Committee how many maximum possible teams and athletes will be represented in Kentucky this Fall.


The sport of reining appears to be in great shape based on these Entries in Principle with 29 nations, 21 full teams and 13 individual athletes conditionally entered. This equates to a total of 97 reining athletes.


Nations who have indicated that they may send teams and individuals include:

Argentina*
Australia*
Austria*
Belgium*
Brazil*
Canada*
Chile*
China
Columbia
Costa Rica
Czech Republic
Denmark*
Dominican Republic*
Spain
France*
Great Britain*
Germany*
Ireland
Israel*
Italy*
Mexico*
Netherlands*
Norway
Paraguay
Poland
South Africa
Sweden*
Uruguay
USA*

(* indicates a desire to field a full team)


The equestrian event of our lifetime and the first time ever outside Europe, the World Equestrian Games (WEG) will be held this fall in Lexington, KY. HorsePower is proud to be managing the reining activities at the Games and honored to be a part of the Organizing Committee for this history-making event.


As reining enjoys a homecoming, of sorts, riders from all corners of the globe will compete for team and individual medals. What was once a sport born of the maneuvers of a working ranch horse of the American West is now global, with active riders in nearly 40 nations and 6 continents.
