The new FEI Award winners will be announced today. There were 1200 nominations for the five awards from all over the globe and across all the FEI disciplines.
The awards have been designed to reward the fair play, team spirit, inspiration and prowess that equine competition espouses, as well as celebrating the outstanding achievements of our often-underrated athletes.
Headed by FEI President HRH Princess Haya, the judges will have to use all their extensive knowledge and experience of equestrianism. The group also includes eventing and show jumping Olympian and multiple medallist Mark Todd, Dominican Republic dressage rider and judge Diana Ramos, Italian show jumping organiser Eleonora Ottaviani and German vaulting champion Kai Vorberg, along with representatives from key FEI sponsors Alltech and HSBC.
The ceremony, which will be hosted by the BBC's Clare Balding, takes tomorrow during the FEI General Assembly at a Gala Dinner - a real 'Oscar' evening.
The awards are in five categories:
Best Rider
Best Groom
Against All Odds
Alltech Development Award
HSBC Rising Star
