Normally Olivier Philippaerts would have started in the 'Master Airbus' class in Chantilly this afternoon. Unfortunately, faith decided otherwise. Philippaerts' horse, Challenge vd Begijnakker Z, suffered from a little injury. A steward discovered the injury in the paddock. Challenge was immediately examined by the ground jury and the vet of the FEI. They decided Olivier couldn't start and that he had to take Challenge back to the stable. It was only a little injury and the horse seemed very relaxed.
