Marc Houtzager

Marc Houtzager is a Dutch show jumper, born on 9 January 1971. He began riding at ten, on ponies at a place where his parents worked as caterers. At the 2012 London Olympics he rode Sterrehof's Tamino as part of the Dutch team that won the silver medal in the team jumping event. He had first reached the Games in 2008, when he and Angelique Hoorn were chosen by coach Rob Ehrens to ride in Beijing after injuries kept Jeroen Dubbeldam and Albert Zoer out, forming a team with Gerco Schroder and Vincent Voorn. In 2002 he won a leg of the World Cup circuit in Dublin, and in 2008 he took an individual silver at the Dutch national championships, where his team became national champion. Olympedia also lists him at the 2020 Games.
