In 2016 the Challenge expanded out of Belgium with the two International C shows adding the Challenge section to their event - Arabian Horse Weekend in Holland and the Arabische Festival in Westfalen, two shows which have continued to be a part of the program. They were also joined by the Absolut Arabian Event in Spa Francorchamps in Belgium. While the show were geographically near to each other - competitors travelled a long way to be a part of the Challenge and some of them got not only to Paris but to California ! The winners of the final draw were Marie Callebaut of Belgium, Robina Romani a rider from Holland and Suzanna Hayward a small breeder from Normandy in France - who started her own show the following year.
