New Delhi: India finished off their campaign this week with a historic medal haul at the FEI Asian Equestrian Championship 2025 in Pattaya, Thailand, which got underway on November 23. India bagged a total of five medals across the Eventing and Dressage events. This was only the second edition of the Asian Championship; India did not participate in the inaugural edition in 2019.

In Eventing, Target Asian Games Group (TAGG) scheme athlete Ashish Limaye clinched an individual gold as well as a team silver alongside fellow Shashank Singh Kataria and Shashank Kanmuri.

In Dressage, Shruti Vora remained the star of the competition for India, bagging three silver medals – one in the individual category, the second in Intermediate Freestyle I, and the third in the Dressage Team event. The Indian team, consisting of TAGG athlete Divyakriti Singh, Gaurav Pundir, and Shruti, were a part of the team that clinched the silver.

“This was a very emotional win for us because the last Asian Games didn’t turn out great for us. So, I think it was a huge redemption kind of feeling and a big relief,” Ashish Limaye told SAI Media.
