The nice show of Bordeaux is already over. Cortney Cox jumped every day very well but the luck was unfortunately not on our side (4 faults in the 160 Grand Prix and 8 faults in the World Cup Grand Prix). Cina Donna jumped her heart out in the 150 class but she was a little bit tired at the end of the course and had two down. Chaquilot, the 13 years old gelding from the Houston family from Germany, did his very first competition with me. We immediately got on very well and after a little mistake in the 145 class on Saturday, we took the 4th place in the 150 class on Sunday.

I’m flying to Hong Kong this week. I’m going to ride About A Dream and Balou Rubin R. I’m looking forward to compete there, as I won the bronze team medal at the Summer Olympics in 2008.
