This morning the French Equestrian Federation announced that Marie Hécart will replace Patrice Delaveau on the French team for the FEI Furusiyya Nations Cup Finals that take place in Barcelona (9-12 October). Delaveau had intended to ride Carinjo HDC in Barcelona, but after competing at the LA Masters last weekend the stallion was found to have minor back pain. The pair will now be replaced by Marie Hécart and 'Myself de Breve'. They will be joined by Simon Delestre & Qlassic Bois Margot, Jérôme Hurel & Quartz Rouge, Pénélope Leprevost & Nayana, and Kevin Staut & Rêveur de Hurtebise HDC.
