Andrew Hoy and Cheeky Calimbo make virtual Champions of Champions field at CHIO Aachen

CHIO Aachen is going digital this year, and working with EquiRatings and SAP, event organisers are able to offer a virtual eventing competition, with perhaps the best field ever seen. The eventing simulated competition will take place on Friday 7th August and Saturday 8th August. The Champion of Champions brings together the combinations from the previous CHIO Aachen Podiums plus some wildcards from the top 10 – who will gain their place via a fan vote.

The first fan vote for wildcard entries was Andrew Hoy and Cheeky Calimbo vs. Karin Donckers with Fletcha Van ‘T Verahof. Andrew has won the poll 54% to 46%, and will now be in the virtual Champions of Champions field at CHIO Aachen digital.

Andrew Hoy and Cheeky Calimbo finished 7th at Aachen in 2015.
