Pure Spanish Horse Exhibition at the 2018 World Equestrian Games

The United States PRE Association, in collaboration with the National Association of PRE Breeders in Spain (ANCCE), will present an exhibition of the Pure Spanish Horse at the World Equestrian Games in Tryon on September 13 and 14, from 12.00-1.00 pm, during the lunch hour during the Dressage Championships.

The Purebred Spanish horse, or PRE for its initials in Spanish, was created in the sixteenth Century by King Philip II to show the ability of the Royal Court riders. Today, the PRE horse is a beautiful being, elegant, with an extraordinary temperament and a no limit of dedication to his rider. Modern PREs are successful equine athletes in the sport of dressage.

To the US, the Spanish horses have written historic pages in dressage such as EVENTO in the Olympic Games in Atlanta, or FUEGO in the WEG in Kentucky. And much before that, the PRE Horse is present in the roots of a huge majority of American horse breeds. The United States PRE Association serves the largest community of PRE horses outside of Spain, and works together with ANCCE to promote this majestic and noble equine.

Please join us for this magical performance!
