Olympic equestrian Pilar Cordón from Zaragoza will not be able to take part in the 2026 Aachen World Championships after suffering a shoulder fracture today in Gijón.
The injury occurred following a fall while competing in the CSN 3* held at the Club Hípico Astur facilities, an accident that puts an end to her chances of being part of the Spanish team at the season's major international event. The horse drifted to the left and she suffered a dramatic fall that sent her to hospital.
Pilar Cordón's withdrawal is a setback for the Spanish Show Jumping team just a few days before the start of the World Championship, which will bring together the best horse-and-rider combinations on the international scene in the German city.
