The final day of the San Patrignano’s CSI5* begins with the “Antonveneta” prize, mixed category for seven year old horses.
The horse and rider team which were able to best complete the courses designed by Rolf Ludi and Heiner Fischer, with fences 1.45 meters high, was their yellow Swiss, Steve Guerdat. Currently ranked twentieth on the FEI ranking list, Guerdat rode the Belgian Gelding Brustor Boy of Kannan to a double clear and a time of 34.73, impressively cutting all possibile corners and maintaining accuracy. Second place went to Gerco Schroder, 9th worldwide, on Eurocommerce Baltimore, an up and coming Dutch horse. Third place went to another Dutch duo, Marc Houtzager on Utopie.
The only rider to compete on an Italian bred mount was Filippo Moyersoen on Nadiro di Capocentro. The pair placed 18th due to two errors in the first round. Nadiro is by Nadir di San Patrignano, currently the most important sire of the Community’s breeding farm. The grey stallion will be competine tonight in the “Acqua Uliveto – Vincenzo Muccioli Challenge” Grand Prix, ridden by Italian Jerry Smit.
