Italy's Emanuele Gaudiano keeps his form, that started at the end of last year. The show jumping rider topped the 1.40m class today at the international five-star show in Dinard, France. Aboard the 11-year-old Kentucky vh Neerhof Z (by Kashmir van Schuttershof) the pair clocked in 79.69 seconds. Fastest British pair was Laura Renwick and the 8-year-old MHS Washington (by Obos Quality). Renwick stopped the clock in 80.53 seconds. The combination placed as runner-up. Belgium's Jérome Guery and the  8-year-old Belgian Warmblood-mare, Instit de Jucaso (by Cooper van de Heffinck) finished third in this 1.40m class. The top five was completed by Fabrice Dumartin aboard Umour Noir de Crann in fourth and Catherine Tyree together with Bokai in fifth. For the latter combination this is one of the debuting competitions on a five-star level. A few weeks ago Axel Verlooy's Euro Horse sold the horse to the USA show jumper.
