[RC] Fwd: FEI Press News World Cup Final in Las Vegas - Biography service - Maryanne Stroud Gabbani

Please note who is helping out from endurance. The Ambassador Endurance organisation ????? This seems to be made up of ex-FEI (well, I would hope that they are ex) who seem to be mainly promoting the UAE. The home page for the site is most enlightening and probably contains more pictures of a certain patron of equestrian sport than almost anyone needs. They also have the nerve to list Egypt as a participant. There hasn't been an honest endurance race in this country in the last two years....and the Ambassador's race was a total fiasco, albeit highly entertaining locally.

FEI OFFERS FREE BIOGRAPHY SERVICE


In conjunction with the FEI World Cup Final, which starts today in Las
Vegas, the  FEI is pleased to announce a new online riders biography
service:

http://bios.horsesport.org

The biographies of all riders participating in the World Cup Final are
available for commentators, media representatives and any interested person.


After having selected the jumping discipline on the homepage, you can either
:


1) Consult the biography of each individual rider by clicking on the rider's
name,
2) or print the biographies of all riders participating in the World Cup
Final in a printer friendly pdf file.


For several months, the FEI has worked on a global biography project
including the development of a database of riders for all disciplines. This
development includes the requirements of the International Olympic Committee
and will be used for the 2004 Athens Olympic Games. Information on riders
includes present and past results, rankings and personal data.


After a test version at the 2002 World Equestrian Games, the FEI riders'
biography service will be offered to all Super League events, World Cup
Finals and Championships at senior level in 2003, thanks to the invaluable
cooperation of many contributors, among whom:
