LEBANESE EQUESTRIAN JAD DANA BOOSTS OLYMPIC QUALIFICATION CHANCES

The Winter Equestrian Festival’s elite Class 515 - CSI5 competition saw Lebanese rider Jad Dana once again demonstrate his prowess (WEF). The tournament, which is held annually from January to March at Wellington International in Wellington, FL, is one of the most significant events in the horse riding world. Dana triumphed against Egyptian Nayel Nassar (son-in-law of Bill Gates), and Irish Daragh Kenny to claim first place. Dana’s triumph has improved his prospects of qualifying for the Paris Olympics in 2024, despite riding a horse that was less powerful than those of his competitors.
