Swedish WEG team rider Patrik Kittel has made his decision on which horse he will take to the 2018 World Equestrian Games in Tryon. It will be Well Done de la Roche.
Kittel was nominated with two horses for Tryon: his long-time team ride, Marie Haward's 14-year old Swedish warmblood mare Deja (by Silvano x Don Schufro) and his younger rising star, Françoise Trembley's 10-year old Swiss warmblood mare Well Done de la Roche CMF (by Furstentraum x Walt Disney).
"It's really a luxury problem to have two good horses. It has been very difficult to choose. Both have done a great season," Patrik explained. "It's great for Welli to do a championship outdoors now. She is still a little sensitive indoors and therefore I prefer Deja for the World Cup indoor season."
