This week, Emile Faurie made the trek to France for his first competition of 2014, representing Great Britain at the Vidauban CDI3*, 26 Feb-9 Mar.
As sole representative for Britain at this international competition, Emile will be accompanied by his big tour partner, Julie Bradley’s 14-year old gelding, Topolino II. Together since early last year, the pair will be looking to take the experience gained from their appearance at Olympia in December and continue improving their form.
However, today marks the first day of competition at Vidauban for Emile and his small tour ride, ten year old Danish gelding Bohemo Tinto, co-owned by Louise Hart and Robbie Carpenter. The pair will be riding in the Prix St Georges this afternoon.
