The horses, english saddles and other equipment are shipped from all over the world for the Olympic Equestrian events held in Hong Kong. Unfortunately, the Equestrian events are not ones in which China will win a medal.

Hua Tian, China’s first and only Olympic horse rider was eliminated after falling at one of the jumps. Tian is only 18 years old and the youngest Olympian in the equestrian events. There is a lot of pressure on Chinese athletes to bring home gold medals. Fortunately for Tian, he lives in London!
