Beatrice Ottaviani, EEF Series Manager: “We are delighted to be here in Luxembourg and would like to thank the Thiry family for hosting the second leg of the Region West of our series. Our gratitude also extends to Longines, the official timekeeper and partner of our series. We are very happy to see so many teams here in Luxembourg, not only from the region but also from other regions and even outside Europe. This shows the success of the series and how much it’s appreciated among riders and Chef d’Equipes.”
The Thiry family is thrilled to give the Luxembourger team a place to compete on home soil. “We want to open the door for our local team but also welcome riders from across the world to experience our hospitality. We are very excited to have so many nations competing here at Reiser Päerdsdeeg. The weather forecast is very promising and will help everyone shine at their best! Our goal is to make everyone happy – from rider, groom, horse to spectator, everyone is invited to join in the fun and experience the top of the sport in this lovely setting.”
We look forward to a thrilling competition and wish all participating teams the best of luck.
