Today it is a busy schedule for the CSI5* combinations, competing in Paris. This afternoon the 1.50m class was set against the clock. In the end the French combinations dominated the ranking with a home win for Simon Delestre and Olga vd Kruishoeve.
The fastest time was recorded by Simon Delestre and the 10-year-old mare, Olga van de Kruishoeve (El Torreo de Muze). Alongside the BWP mare, the French show jumper was only two hundredths of a second ahead of Philippe Rozier and the BWP stallion, Le Coultre de Muze (Presley Boy).
Completing the French-Belgian celebration with Cyril Cools' former mare, Cloe GP Z (Corrdino CH), Kevin Staut joined the podium.
Just outside the top three, Roger Yves Bost followed with Ever de Turan (Kannan), ahead of Nicolas Delmotte and Citadin du Chatellier (L'Arc de Triomphe). Belgian rider Gudrun Patteet also made her mark, guiding the 9-year-old Sea Coast Chica V.V. Z (Comme Il Faut) flawlessly to sixth place.
