Jack Whitaker to parade at Olympia with FEI World Equestrian Games Medallists

Olympia, The London International Horse Show will welcome Team GBR’s medallists from the FEI World Equestrian Games™ (WEG) Tryon 2018 to the annual event to take part in a celebratory parade on the evening of Thursday 20 December 2018.

17-Year-Old Jack Whitaker, from Whatton, Nottinghamshire will be accompanying the WEG athletes in the Thursday evening parade at The London International Horse Show after winning Showjumping Team Silver at the 2018 Youth Olympic Games in Buenos Aires, Argentina this September.

The parade marks the success of British athletes, who won eight medals this summer, giving spectators the opportunity to show their appreciation for these top riders, owners and Chefs d'Équipe, after their successful campaign at the WEG.

Show Director, Simon Brooks-Ward, said: “It is an honour to be welcoming the leading British equestrian teams to this year’s Olympia. The parade hails the fantastic achievements of Team GBR and the exceptional group of riders.”
