The International Jumping Riders Club since 1977 is the voice of the showjumping riders from around the world.
Bertram Allen with nine-year-old gelding Lafayette Van Overis L won CSI4* 1.45m Longines Ranking class at Hubside Jumping in Grimaud, France in front of Nicolas Delmotte on Urvoso du Roch, and Pénélope Leprévost on Varennes du Breuil.
Bertam said: "It was a class with many very serious competitors, as expected on the HUBSIDE JUMPING. The level is exceptional! Seventeen riders qualified for the jump-off, and I knew we had to go very very fast. I'm lucky: Lafayette Van Overis is particularly successful at this kind of course. The idea was to give everything and not waste time anywhere. "
