Eric Lamaze at the HUBSIDE JUMPING for the first time
Switzerland’s Steve Guerdat, the 2012 Olympic individual gold medallist, a regular at the French Rivier a show, will also be competing. In 2020, the Swiss rider won the first 5* Grand Prix in Grimaud, withVictorio des Frotards. The current World number 1 will face some tough competition as the current Olympic team gold medallists, France’s Roger-Yves Bost, Kevin Staut and Pénélope Leprévost, who was particularly convincing in the 4* Grand Prix last weekend, will also be present. America’s LauraKraut, the team gold medallist at the Beijing /Hong Kong Olympics, is just as impressive and will also try to win the HUBSIDE SPRING TOUR’s 5* Grand Prix. But Scotland’s Scott Brash, who won the teamgold medal for Great Britain on home soil in London in 2012, has not had his last word: the winner of three of the 4* Grands Prix in Grimaud, has yet to add his name to the list of winners of the HUBSIDE 5*Grand Prix! But all eyes (behind the screens) will be on the 2008 Olympic individual gold medallist,Canada’s Eric Lamaze, whose appearances are rare and treasured. After an American winter which was slightly interrupted by a participation in the Longines Global Champions Tour leg in Doha, in which the rider from Quebec finished third, he is back on this side of the Atlantic and has chosen the HUBSIDE SPRING TOUR for his first show in Europe. Fans hadn’t seen him at a European show since...lastSeptember!
