Rolex Rankings at the Rocky Mountain Classics!
The Rocky Mountain Classics completed just two weeks ago, and today, the recent updates to the FEI Rolex World Rankings was published to the FEI Website. With four of the competitions hosted at the Rocky Mountain Classics eligible for world rankings, the management of RMSJ wanted to take the time to recognize the efforts of some of the young up and comers in our sport, and applaud their efforts in continuing the advancement of their equestrian careers.
At the beginning of 2010, RMSJ made the decision to apply for CSI 2* status for the recently completed August tournaments in order to allow our loyal competitors the chance to earn these valuable world ranking points. Congratulations to the following competitors who continue their climb on the world ranking list. (behind each competitor's name is their world ranking)
