THE International Jumping Riders Club (IJRC) director Eleonora Ottaviani has said that club must work together to achieve a meritocratic sport.

She was speaking of their recent Extraordinary General Assembly, saying: “The club is working with, and not against, the national federations, the organisers and the FEI. Even if differences of opinion sometimes occur, we are all in the same boat, and the IJRC will always try to find a reasonable solution, doing its best for the sport.”
