Hong Kong (10 February 2015) 58 of the world’s best equine athletes, 2 dressage horses and the 2 arabian horses who will be performing with equestrian artist Santi Serra,  arrived in Hong Kong last night on a specially chartered Emirates Boeing 777F flight from Liège Airport, Belgium.
During their 13-hour journey the horses were accompanied by a professional flying jockey, a vet and 7 grooms to ensure that they arrived in the best physical order possible during the 10,000 km flight from Europe. 
This year’s current World Number 1 rider Scott Brash from the UK will be competing at the Longines Hong Kong Masters.  His two horses Hello My Lady and Hello Annie were accompanied on the long journey by 22-year-old groom Hannah Colman.
She said both horses travelled very well and she is looking forward to being involved in her first competition experience in Hong Kong.
“I am so excited to be here, I have been looking forward to this trip all year,” Colman said.
Horses will compete in 6 competitions for a share in a total prize money pool of $1 million USD (approximately HKD7.8 million).
Christophe Ameeuw, founder and CEO of EEM World commented: “We are delighted to say that all horses have arrived safely in Hong Kong and are resting comfortably in the stables at AsiaWorld Expo ready to compete in the third edition of the Longines Hong Kong Masters."
