Although it took him a few months to be able to show his outstanding skills, this weekend the great audience at CSI Basel had the chance to celebrate even twice this breathtaking Victorio des Frotards!
Winner of the GP of Basel on Friday evening and outstanding winner of the World Cup Grand Prix on Sunday: The 11-year-old Selle Francais gelding (Barbarian x Prince Ig'Or) gave no chance to his opponents, although he had competed against the world elite of equestrian sport, what a demonstration!
Ulysse des Forêts was less lucky and twice missed the chance of a successful classification.
On Saturday afternoon Steve was honoured for the second time in a row as "Rider of the Year", an award that is given to the best Swiss rider in the Nations Cups.
What a great weekend!
