BOYD EXELL TAKES THE LEAD IN FEI WORLD CUP™ DRIVING FINAL IN BORDEAUX

By Cindy Timmer

Triple World Cup winner Boyd Exell (AUS) has taken the lead in the FEI World Cup™ Driving Final in Bordeaux (FRA) after the first competition on Friday 3 February. Many spectators attended the first competition of the FEI World Cup™ Driving Final despite it ending close to midnight. Boyd drove an excellent round in a thrilling competition which kept the spectators on the edge of their seats. The defending World Cup champion managed to put a 15-second lead between himself and Jozsef Dobrobitz (HUN), who was leading the competition. Exell drove a clear round, using the same four-in-hand team with which he amazingly won at Mechelen (BEL) at the end of December 2011, using his best horse Bill.
