“I’m really honoured to have been selected to represent Australia for the 5th year in a row. Every year has been such an amazing experience. I feel I’ve learnt so much from being able to compete against some of the best in the world and I’m really excited to see what this year’s experience will bring. I have two very beautiful black stallions both owned by Gestut Sprehe. Six year old Marc Cain is a very impressive son of Millennium, who I also ride, with three very exceptional gaits and a lovely character I think he has the potential to be really strong in Ermelo.
Cap Amour will compete in the 7yo. Cap Amour had a great international debut two weeks ago at CDI Achlieten in Austria where he won the 7yo class, so I’m hoping to continue his development in the month leading up to the championships and see what we can do on the big stage” said Simone Pearce of her selection.
