“It was a fast and short class, with around 17 riders, and it was not an easy one. Five-star classes are always more difficult than the others, but thankfully everything came together well for us today. A huge amount of work happens behind the scenes, we are the ones in the ring at the end, but this result belongs to the whole team.” – Bassem Mohammed (QAT)

As the final stop of the Doha Equestrian Tour 2026, the event is being delivered in a controlled environment and without public attendance, with live coverage available across broadcast platforms and Doha Equestrian Tour social media channels.
