Visitors to Olympia tonight (16 December) can cheer on the British Equestrian Team 2010 medal winners.
Olympia’s Thursday night audience will show their support for Team GB’s medal winners in eventing, dressage, vaulting and para-equestrian dressage from the Alltech World Equestrian Games (WEG).
Joining them will also be Team GB’s young riders including the European Eventing Pony Team, European Eventing Young Rider Team, and the European Showjumping Children on Horses Team.
Will Connell, World Class performance director said: “It has been a phenomenal year for our equestrian stars.
“Not only did Team GB manage 19 medals at WEG in Kentucky, but our young riders have also enjoyed great success in Europe.
“We should all be extremely proud of their achievements and there’s no better place than Olympia for everyone to celebrate their success.”
