Mathieu Billot stays ahead of patriots winning the CSI4* 1.40m of Rouen

The French Rouen homes some of the top riders for the upcoming weekend. Today the riders gathered for the CSI4* over 1.40m. The class had a full French stage with Mathieu Billot leading the way. 

France was greedy and kept all three medals in own country with Nathalie Mack taking bronze. She rode Baccara de l'Aubepine (by Lamm de Fetan) across the finish line in 33.61. Edward Levy could do better and finished second on Confidence d'Ass (by Diamant de Semilly) after finishing in 32.83. But the winning time was set on 32.29 and was performed by Mathieu Billot on the back of Darling de l'Angevine (by Air Jordan).

Niels Kersten kept Granito Noordernhoek (by Corland) clear in a time of 33.85 and finished fifth. With 33.66 on the clock, he had to put up with Konstantin E. Van Damme in fourth with Hanne Umonia (by Tolan R).
