Eventing: Mondial du Lion: DIBOWSKI DOMINATES AT LE LIONS D'ANGERS
FEI WORLD EVENTING CHAMPIONSHIPS FOR YOUNG HORSES
Le Lion d'Angers (FRA), 25 October 2010
Germany's Andreas Dibowski dominated the 25th World Eventing Championship for Young Horses, staged at the Haras Nationaux du Lion d’Angers, France from 21 to 24 October.
The German Olympian and his much-admired stallion Mighty Magic (Mytens XX/Heraldik XX) which finished second in last year’s 6 year-old class, returned to take the coveted 7 year-old title with a convincing victory. For good measure a clear round in the final jumping phase secured second place with Butts Avedon, who like Dibowski's 2010 Badminton runner-up ride Euroridings Butts Leon is also sired by the WBFSH top ranked stallion Heraldik XX. This was a dream result for the 44-year-old from Dohle in Lower Saxony.
