The Bahraini rider took part in the 140cm hurdle round, in which an elite pool of showjumpers competed.

Al Alawi, following his accomplishment, thanked His Highness Shaikh Nasser bin Hamad Al Khalifa, Representative of His Majesty the King for Humanitarian Works and Youth Affairs, for his support which played a key role in the result he achieved, while also expressing thanks to HH Shaikh Isa bin Abdullah Al Khalifa, President of Bahrain Royal Equestrian and Endurance Federation (BREEF) for his backing.
