He also represented his country at the 2017 European Show Jumping Championships with the same horse and later at the 2021 European Show Jumping Championships with Galtur.
On the international circuit, William Whitaker has won several prestigious Grand Prix classes, including World Cup qualifiers with Utamaro d'Ecaussines, the horse with whom he established himself at the highest level of the sport. More recently, he has continued to perform successfully in CSI4* and CSI5* competitions with horses such as Millfield Quickstep and Flamboyant III, regularly achieving placings in classes up to 1.60 m.
Combining a remarkable family legacy, championship experience, and success in international Grand Prix competitions, he continues the Whitaker family's tradition of excellence on some of the world's most prestigious arenas.
