The scenario of the first HUBSIDE JUMPING SPRING TOUR CSI4* Grand Prix of 2021 was ideal. The sun shining again in the ring in Var, forty-one combinations competing in this 1.55m Grand Prix and a final with 10 jump-off riders: the French course designer Cédric Longis was to be commended to have successfully finished up with the 25% of clear rounds expected. Although two lady riders finished on the podium, in the end it was Spain’s Eduardo Alvarez Aznar who was the winner, riding Legend, his ten-year-old gelding.
Eduardo Alvarez Aznar, winner of the CSI4* Grand Prix: “This was Legend’s first 4* Grand Prix, so I couldn’t be more pleased today! He jumped really well in the first round. I knew there were still some very fast combinations after me in the jump-off so I took a lot of risks and they paid off. I’m really delighted and I would like to thank my groom for the great job that he has done.”
