Winning mood continues at Major League show in Monterrey, Mexico

Monterrey in Mexico was the third stop for our team on the Major League’s CSI 5* & 2* Tour. With the beautiful host venue of the Club Hípico La Silla our riders and horses were given the perfect setting and facilities to perform at their best. And they did with multiple top rankings and two victories for our team.

We were off to an excellent start with Limbridge and Jana securing a second place in the 1.50m class on the opening day. Proving all the AF-horses are currently in excellent shape, Cajus jumped clear rounds only and subsequently earned a fourth place in the Monterrey Championships.

Ranking points
The first victory was achieved by our Michael Cristofoletti and Lezaro on Friday. This pair jumped an exceptional speedy round in the 1.45m ranking which was ridden directly on time. Beating the fastest time with half a second to spare, scoring the win and Longines ranking points to boot.

Grand Prix win
Jana and her string of horses also had an excellent show, finishing on Sunday with a placing in each of the top classes including a win. With Chacco’s Lady Jana completed the CSI2* jump-off by crossing the finish line almost whole second faster than the competition. In this GP Michael and Lezarro also jumped a clear round but had a time fault that kept them out of the JO, still scoring a nice 11th placing.

CSI5* top rankings
In the CSI5* Grand Prix Limbridge was once again on top of his game. Finishing as one of only three combinations in a double clear with a time that was good for the third place in this 1.55m class. In the 1.45m ranking finale it was Happiness that finished in sixth place with two super clear rounds.
