'First Division' to Sheikh Ali bin Khalid Al Thani

After acquiring some of the best horses in the world such as Bella Donna, Palloubet d'Halong and Utascha, the Qatari Equestrian Federation has now bought First Division (pictured). The 9 year old gelding has previously been ridden by Brazilian team rider Yuri Mansur Guerios. In April they took part in the FEI World Cup Finals and they also took part in several Nations Cups this season.

It is likely that First Division (x Andiamo) will continue his career with Sheikh Ali Bin Khalid Al Thani. They have already competed in 1.45m classes in Morocco this week and placed well. First Division will join Vienna Olympic and Eurocommerce California in the Sheikhs top string.
