Hyderabad: Archi Horse Riding riders were the standout performers as the 2nd HPRC Equestrian Challenge concluded at the Hyderabad Polo & Riding Club (HPRC) with Show Jumping finals across the 60 cm, 80 cm, and 90 cm classes.

HPRC’s Mohammed Aamir Shahnawaz also finished second in the marquee 90 cm Open class aboard Darcy.
“It has been an incredible five days at HPRC, from hosting the country’s first National Qualifier of the season through to the closing ceremony,” said HPRC president Chaitania Kumar.
