    • Japan looks to build on Paris 2024

    Having won its first eventing medal at Paris 2024, the Japan Equestrian Federation told H&H it is looking to build on that success: “We’ve started to make a build-up plan to grow up our next generation toward LA 2028.” Medallists Ryuzo Kitajima and Toshiyuki Tanaka, who are are funded by Riding Club Crane (RCC), will continue to work with Angela Tucker in Gloucestershire with the aim of qualifying for the Los Angeles Olympics at the 2026 World Championships. An RCC spokesperson said: “We will also send new riders to the UK to train.” Independent rider Yoshiaki Oiwa, who based himself with Pippa Funnell in the run-up to Paris, having bought her five-star horse MGH Grafton Street, has confirmed he will be working towards the Asian Games and World Championships in 2026 and the Los Angeles Olympics.
