Martin Fuchs and Conner Jei are the best in St. Gallen
Once again it was a great sport.
Martin Fuchs was the second last to go into the arena in the Longines Grand Prix of Switzerland in St.Gallen with his amazing horse Conner Jei, and they won in great style.
The Belgian Wilm Vermeir with IQ van het Steentje were last to go and they didn't manage to take the lead but thry finished in secind place.
Third was Bryan Balsiger with Dubai du Bois Pinchet, fourth was Edouard Schmitz with Quno. What a great result for the Swiss riders in the Swiss Grand Prix, which is part of the CSIO St. Gallen.
It is the first time that Martin win this big event. His uncle Markus won it in 2000 and 2007.
«It was my big goal to finally win the GP here and I'm very happy that I've achieved it. At the moment everything is going like clockwork and I can lean back on a great group of horses that I have a chance of winning with at every show" said the winner, Martin Fuchs.
