It starts in Linz (for real this time): The steel city landed a top equestrian event that had never existed in this form before. Only one professional group is entitled to participate. Which, however, also has to do with horses by "official duty" . . . 

Just don't get sick! This is especially true for horses from June 27 to 29, when there will be a worldwide shortage of equestrian veterinarians. The reason for this is an equestrian event that has never been held in this form before. The World Championships of Veterinary Surgeons, which will take place at the end of June at the facility of former Olympic rider Helmut Morbitzer in Linz-Ebelsberg.
