Roger-Yves Bost began competing on ponies at the age of 8. He quickly achieved his first successes and became French pony champion at just 12 years old. The medals kept coming: second place at the European Championships, first place in 1982 in the junior category then in the young riders category for the following three years. Talented and passionate, nothing stops him and his taste for speed gives him an excellent reputation in the world of competition.
