Organised by the Dubai Equestrian Club in association with the UAE Equestrian and Racing Federation, the festival is one of the most prestigious events on the annual endurance calendar of the UAE, with the cream of Emirati riders locking horns with some of the best UAE-based international riders.
The Dubai Crown Prince Endurance Festival comprises four rides starting with the 101-km Dubai Crown Prince Ride for Ladies on Tuesday. The Ladies event is followed by the 101-km Dubai Crown Prince Ride for Private Stables, which runs over the identical course on Wednesday.
The third ride on the programme is the 120-km Yamamah Endurance Cup for Mares on Thursday, while the fourth and final competition is the showpiece Dubai Crown Prince Endurance Cup (120km) on Saturday.
Endurance riding requires riderhorse pairings to traverse extreme distances across challenging terrain, with the competition intensifying as tactics come into play even as the mental and physical demands of the sport test both rider and horse.
