Eric Lamaze announces retirement Rosana du Park
The Canadian showjumper Eric Lamaze announced on his facebook that his top horse Rosana du Park will retire from the sport. A Selle Francais mare (Kannan x Quinine de Livoye) owned by Artisan Farms LLC.

"Rosie joined us during the 2014 season and proved to be a true winner. While she won too many classes to mention them all, my most special memories are our back-to-back wins in the WEF Challenge Cup series at the 2016 Winter Equestrian Festival in Florida as well as scoring three victories during the 2016 Spruce Meadows Summer Series. At the top level of our sport, you need a horse that may not be in the limelight jumping all the big grand prix classes, but one that is extremely competitive in the 1.50m division and always earning world ranking points. Rosie was a specialist at what she did, and I'm lucky to have committed owners who understand the importance of having her in my string. Thank you to Andy and Carlene Ziegler for allowing me to ride this incredible horse", says Lamaze.

Their last performance was during the Concours Hippique at Geneva in december last year. The combination ended in seventh place.
