Last weekend, Murphy debuted with the son of Comme Il Faut in Vejer de la Frontera, Spain. The new duo immediately made their mark, securing two top-five finishes. The Brit takes over the reins from Jur Vrieling, who successfully competed the stallion up to 1.60m Grand Prix level.

Vrieling and the stallion enjoyed a highly successful run over the past year. The pair placed fifth in the CSIO4* EEF Nations Cup Final in Avenches and stepped onto the podium in the CSIO3* 1.50m Big Tour in Budapest, as well as during the CSIO3* EEF Nations Cup in Samorin.

Before Vrieling took over the ride, the stallion was previously campaigned by Grzegorz Psiuk (POL) and Anna Maria Kuhlmann (GER).
