The ninth edition of the Hathab Qatar Equestrian Tour resumed Thursday with the tenth round of the championship at the Qatar Equestrian Federation’s main arena. The Tour paused for the prestigious Doha Equestrian Tour, which wrapped up over the weekend.
The three-day event features 14 rounds and saw over 65 riders competing in both the Amateur and Silver Tours.
The Silver Tour, contested at 130 cm, produced an exciting contest as Saudi rider Khaled al-Hadi claimed first and third place on Carlton de Sauvageonn (55.89 seconds) and Capoen (57.48). His compatriot Abdullah al-Sharbatly finished second on Inturido in 56.29 seconds. Awards were presented by Mohammed Saleh al-Marri, Head of the Championship’s Facilities and Logistics Committee.
Meanwhile, Qatar’s Sultan Jassim al-Suwaidi won the Amateur Tour at 100cm on Cat Ballou 27 in 26.79 seconds. Faisal Mohammed al-Nuaimi was second on Dilandra (28.27) and Salha Khalid al-Obaidli third on Roxette van de Achterhoek (28.38).
The event is organised by the Qatar Equestrian Federation in partnership with Al Shaqab.
