Great Britain is unlikely to send a full driving team to this year’s Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games in Kentucky, according to Horse and Hound.
It would cost approximately $400,000 to transport a full team of 15 horses and six carriages across the Atlantic.
If drivers wish to compete, they will have to pay their own way or fundraise on their own.
