Attention horse lovers: For four days beginning on November 29, Munich's Olympiahalle will host the 10th annual Munich Indoors event, an international equestrian show jumping event. Munich Indoors is the final event in the Riders Tour schedule, where the season champions will be decided.

For more information and a program of events, check the Munich Indoors site.

Unfortunately, it does not appear that Zara Phillips and Toytown are involved in the competition.

Darn! Is Toytown even still competing?

Some tickets are only 7 euros, this might be fun to go see. Odd that the organization is called "en garde" though, I thought that was fencing.

It looks like Toytown was still competing in September at the European Championships, but stopped dead in his tracks during one event. On the plus side, it looks like Zara has qualified for the 2008 Olympics. Whether she will actually be selected to go with Toytown remains to be seen, I guess.

EDIT: Here's an article written by Zara Phillips in the Telegraph.

QUOTE

Despite that show-jumping blip, Toytown has still qualified for next year's Olympics and, although we will have to be selected before we can really start dreaming of getting on the plane for Hong Kong, where the equestrian events will take place, the prospect of representing the country there and being involved with so many other sports and athletes is very exciting. It is something that will sustain us all through the long, wet, dark mornings in the saddle during the coming winter, and getting selected next summer is a major priority for me.

Um -- Zara's quote there says that Toytown has qualified. If he's sick or something does she still get to go? Or has she qualified? Or do a horse and rider always qualify as a team?
