"Major setback for Romain Duguet! On Sunday, in his Normandy stables, the Swiss rider fractured his sacrum (the bone at the top of the pelvis) after falling from his horse, which had slipped badly. The runner-up in the 2017 World Cup Jumping final will have to remain horizontal for six weeks and will only be able to get back in the saddle in a few months.
However, the Geneva International Horse Show (CHI de Genève) has a 50th candidate for the Geneva Trophy on Thursday evening (8:00 PM), a mandatory step towards the Rolex Grand Prix on Sunday, with the arrival of the Swedish rider Peder Fredricson, a double individual Olympic silver medalist and Olympic team champion. His horses have traveled from Sweden, including the mount of his brother Jens, European team champion and 5th individual, who is coming to Palexpo for the very first time."
