The French Equestrian Federation has announced who they’ve selected for the Rio Olympics! The team is as follows:
French Olympic Team
- Roger-Yves Bost and Sydney A Prince
- Simon Delestre and Hermes Ryan of Hayettes
- Penelope Leprevost and Flora Mariposa
- Kevin Staut and Dreamer Hurtebise HDC
Traveling Reservist
- Philippe Rozier and Rahotep of Tuscany
It’s an incredibly powerful team that would have to completely fall apart not to be in the mix for a medal in Rio. The team will have just a few short weeks to get their affairs in order before heading to the Games in mid-august.
