The French are coming to Kentucky en masse

France has released its World Equestrian Games A-list of 13 pairs, and its B-list of 23 pairs according to Equicomplet.fr.  The french blog suggests that Nicolas Touzaint is the only lock to make the French team, and says that the final French choices are to be made after the World Cup Haras du Pin in late August.  The B-list is available from Eqicomplet at the above link.  The original link is courtesy of Pegasus44.

LIST A name in alphabetical order (13 pairs - 12 riders) 
Anaud Boiteau - Expo du Moulin - 18
Jean Lou Bigot - Lotus Gobaude - 11 years
Lionel Guyon - Metisse Lalou - 10 years
Karim Laghouag - Havens CAZA - 15 
Pascal Leroy - Glenburny the Leou - 16
Pascal Leroy - Minos of Petra - 10 years
Cedric Lyard - Narcos Soulac - 9 years 
Benjamin Masse - Haston of Elpégère - 15 years 
Schauly Donatien - Secular - 10 years
Teulère John - Matelot du Grand Val - 10 years
Nicolas Touzaint - Tatchou - 12 years
Didier Willefert - Escape Lane - 18 
Stanislas Zuchowicz - Quirinal de la Bastide - 10 years 

The horses Escape Lane and Secular are both owned by the French Ministry of Defense, which suggests a defense investment policy that might explain France's military performance over the past 2000 years.  There are 87 days until the World Equestrian Games.  Go eventing.
