Horseback riding is a demanding sport, where both horse and horserider must be in complete harmony. It was probably the idea of this perfect harmony that was the unique inspiration for Slovak billionaire Mario Hoffmann when he wanted to create the ideal environment for the most prestigious of equestrian competitions. The FEI World Endurance Championship, held in Bratislava, thus very quickly established itself as one of the most prestigious championships, to such an extent that it welcomed to Samorin, a suburb of Bratislava, no less than Dubai’s Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Makoutma, an ardent enthusiast on horses and recognised worldwide for his horseriding prowess.
