Pour sa première à ce niveau, le jeune cheval a commis une faute en première manche avant de réaliser un superbe sans-faute dans la seconde. Une prestation prometteuse, alors que la Suisse terminait à une décevante 7ème place.
On Friday evening in Avenches, Steve was warmly welcomed by a large crowd at a reception celebrating his gold medal.
But the world champion was also there for the CSIO 4*, competing with several young horses whom he was able to give valuable experience.
On Sunday, he partnered with the nine-year-old Hadj de Bliniere in the Nations Cup.
Making his first appearance at this level, the young horse made one mistake in the first round before producing a superb clear round in the second. A promising performance, even though Switzerland finished in a disappointing 7th place.
