Martin Fuchs to replace Conor Swail in Rolex Top Ten final

Martin Fuchs will be among the top ten riders competing in the 2024 edition of the Rolex IJRC Top Ten Final, scheduled for Friday 13 December h. 21, during the CHI in Geneva.

The news was announced today following the forced withdrawal of Conor Swail. The Irish rider, who lives in the United States, informed the International Jumping Riders Club (IJRC) that the cargo flight booked to transport his horses had unfortunately been cancelled and that no alternative solution had been found.

The Swiss rider, who was eleventh on the list of ten riders for the eagerly awaited event (November ranking), has competed in five previous editions of the Rolex IJRC Top Ten Final. For the 2024 edition, he was ranked just one point behind Conor Swail.

He is planning to jump Leone Jei.
