Great performance of the Spanish riders, who have won the first place in the tests played in the first day of CSI Santander With the stands full, the Cantabrian public did not want to miss the star event of the day, the Suzuki Trophy. 11 obstacles and thirteen efforts of height 1.40m formed the course designed by Javier Trenor. Ismael García Roque went first to the track and imposed a rhythm that would be very difficult to beat on the back of G & C Wolf. Only Diego Perez Bilbao, who qualified in second place and Gonzalo Añón, proclaimed himself winner of the Suzuki Trophy and who wanted to dedicate to Alfonso Arango. After the small tribute to Alfonso Arango, the XVI edition of the CSI2* Santander began today at 12:30 with the Hotel Real Trophy. The sun, installed in the Campa de la Magdalena from early in the morning, was the main protagonist of the Hotel Real Trophy, a1.30m high test and two phases. Of the forty-one pairs that took part, more than a third of the test managed to finish without faults. The recent winner of the Community of Madrid Championship, Pedro Fernando Mateos, won the inaugural competition riding Ultra Lord. Very closely he was followed by the local rider Elena Ruiz riding Taifas de la Vallarna and then qualified the Argentine Juna Ignacio Álvarez Fermosel with Nimbus du Page, winner of a test of the last edition. The Spanish Javier Gutierrez Rilo, Junior Spain Champion this year, has won the Ayuntamiento de Santander Trophy riding Polidora. Second was Jimena García Rueda and third Jaime Ruiz-Lopetedi. Tomorrow the tests will start at 12:15 in the morning with the Palibex Trophy, followed at 3:30 p.m. by the Igualatorio Cantabria Trophy and at 6:00 p.m. from the Government of Cantabria Trophy. The commercial Village, bets or the pony park among others, will be responsible for entertaining the second day to all visitors.
