New horse for Pius Schwizer
Swiss show jumping rider, Pius Schwizer has added a new top mount to his string of horses. Schwizer welcomes the 13-year-old Balou Star at the beginning of the new year. Before the sire was competed by Millie Allen.

The Balou du Rouet Z-son out of a Quick Star-mare competed since 2014 under the saddle of Millie and Pippa Allen. Before it were Germany's Angelique Rüsen and Hans-dieter Dreher who guided the sire through the obstacles.

The last competition of Millie Allen and her sire was in November 2017 at the Grand Prix in Keysoe. The pair also jumped to the gold team medal at the European Young Riders Championships last summer. Also in Lummen the pair classified with a runner-up position earlier last year.

Schwizer will debut at the CSI5* in Basel with his new mount.
