La Baule, May 2015 – The young… veteran Steve Guerdat signed today one of the most prestigious competition in the world galloping with Nino des Buissonnets through the finishing line in the fastest jump-off time. The Swiss rider won the Csio France Grand Prix leaving behind two young stars: Ireland’s Bertram Allen on Romanov and Brasil’s Marlon Zanotelli on Rock’n Roll Semilly. In fourth place the great Michael Whitaker for Great Britain on Amai. Ten riders qualified for the final jump-off out of fifty starters: while the first four were clear, all the other had at least one rail down. With four faults Alexandre Fontanelle on Prime Time des Vagues and Patrice Delaveau on Orient Express, both for France; with eight faults Kevin Staut on Ayade de Septon for France and Spencer Roe on Wonder Why for Great Britain; Aymeric de Ponnat eliminated on Armitage Boy.
