ROLEX IJRC TOP 10 FINAL: RIDER NO. 6 SIMON DELESTRE
Rolex IJRC Top 10 Final: the Countdown continues: -6 days.
An Expected Return
Simon Delestre N6
4th time competing in the Rolex IJRC Top 10 Final.
1) How did you plan this year’s season and which horses did you ride to qualify for the Rolex IJRC Top 10 Final?
This year was focused on the World Championship. I finished 7th in the Individuals.
Cayman Jolly Jumper, Dexter Fontenis Z, Tinka’s Hero Z, I Amelusina R51 and Iniesta V all helped me to score enough points to get back into the Top 10.
2) Which horse will you be riding in the Final? Tell us about him/her and what sort of bond you have established?
Cayman will make the Top 10. He is just 10 years old and has had an outstanding season. He is a horse with a lot of blood, respect and scope.
3) After a very special year you return as one of the stars of the world’s Top 10.
How does it feel?
Being in the Top 10 is always a reflection of a great season and I am extremely happy!
