Jose Luis Perez Soto

 Jose Luis Perez Soto is a 2-time Olympian.  He competed in the 1976 Olympics in Montreal in 3-day Eventing and in the 1980 Olympics in Moscow receiving the Team Bronze Medal.  


Jose Luis grew up on a ranch in Tonaya, Mexico (in the Jalisco state).  He graduated from the Collegio Militaire (the Military College) in Mexico City and began a career in the Mexican Military.   He joined the Mexican Calvary and competed with the Military team in National Competitions and International Competitions.  As well as competing horses owned by the military, he also trained his own horse, Quelite, an off-the-track thoroughbred stallion.  With Quelite, he was selected to compete on the Mexican Team in the 1980 Olympics held in Moscow winning the Team Bronze Medal in Three-Day Eventing.  He also competed in the 1976 Olympics in Montreal (Equestrian Events in Bromont), as well as the 1982 World Championships in ​Germany.
