Equine America Valmy de la Lande
Birth year: 2009
Joined by Harry Charles, John Whitaker and Joe Stockdale, Jack travelled to St Gallen, Switzerland to represent Great Britain in the Nation Cup of Switzerland.
The British Team were the only team to jump two clears in the first round, courtesy of John and Unick du Francport and Harry Charles riding Casquo Blue.
These clears were two of only 8 clear rounds in the first round across the 8 nations.
An unfortunate 2 fences from the team in round 2 left the British team on a final score of 12, just under 2.5 time penalties behind The Netherlands who finished in 2nd place, also with a final score of 12.
The competition was won by Switzerland who finished on 8 penalties.
First show back and a podium with @madridinmotion 💪🏼💪🏼 @equineamerica Valmy jumped top today and it’s great to be back at it 🔥
Big thanks to @hitairukofficial for the extra protection while the spleen is still healing 👍🏼
There were plenty of treats for Elucar VE as he continues his fantastic form with a 2nd place in the Longines 1.50m World Ranking Class in at the Kingsland Oslo Horse Show this evening.
Drawn tenth to go out of a field of 39 horses, Jack and Elucar jumped a superb speedy clear, to cross the line in 63.54 seconds, just 1.19 seconds behind the winner of the class, Julien Anquetin riding Blood Diamond du Pont.
