Tegan Vincent-Cooke nominated for the prestigious FEI Inspire Award in Equestrian

Tegan Vincent-Cooke has been nominated for the prestigious FEI Inspire Award.

This  after  she and her horse, ‘stolen kiss’  created  history  as  the  first  Jamaican para dressage combination to compete at  the World Championship level, following  their participation  at  the  2026 FEI World Championships in Germany.

Vincent- Cooke, who competes in Grade One Para Dressage, represented Jamaica on one of equestrian sport’s biggest international stages, scoring 63.58 per cent in the individual grand Prix A’ competition and scored 61.542 per cent in the grand prix b’  event

Grade One Para Dressage is designated for riders with the most significant physical impairments, with all competitive movements in each test performed with the horse at the walk.

In recognition of Vincent- Cooke’s ground-breaking achievement and her contribution to advancing inclusion in equestrian sport, the EFJ has formally nominated her for the prestigious FEI inspire award.

The FEI Awards will this year be held in Jiangyin, China in December.
