Weber Takes First In World Cup Driving

Chester Weber, 26, from Ocala, Florida, finished on top in the FEI World Cup
Driving event held at the Stockholm Horse Show, November 30 - December 2,
2001.

Weber finished the summer season in sixth place on the worldwide ranking
list for the 2001 FEI/Finn Caspersen Four-in-Hand Top Driver Award. This
ranking secured his position as one of the ten four-in-hand drivers
qualified to compete at eight indoor World Cup events throughout the winter
season. Each of the ten qualified drivers, plus one wild card driver, will
compete in four of the eight events and will accumulate points over the
course of the competitions. With a win at Stockholm and a third place
finish at Stuttgart, Chester currently has 15 points toward the World Cup
Championship.

The course at each indoor World Cup competition consists of two
marathon-type obstacles (with up to five gates each), a bridge and about ten
cone-type obstacles. Each driver's best four results over the course of the
series will count, and the driver with the most points will be declared the
World Cup Champion.
