A few weeks before the World Equestrian Games, Japaneses Show Jumper Eiken Sato announced the end of his partnership with Stephex Stables. Doing so left him without a horse capable of competing in the WEG in Normandy (2-7 September). We have now learned that he has been replaced on the team by Satoshi Hirao and Ulano. The team also consists of Tadahiro Hayashi (Lorette Classic), Taizo Sugitani (Avenzio 3) and Takashi Utsunomiya (Touche Pas a Rivereuille).
