Sixty-seventh best rider in the Longines FEI world ranking, author of 55 victories in international events in 2022, the Italian Emanuele Gaudiano won the LXF Assurance prize, a major event on this opening day of the HUBSIDE JUMPING Valence. The Transalpin is among the favorites for Sunday’s Grand Prix and, together with the gelding Vasco 118, is ahead of the Portuguese Mandy Mendes Costa on Gray D Albion DB and another serious contender for a Sunday victory, the Belgian François Jr Mathy, in the saddle on Kreisker Classical. Best French rider, Clément Frerejacques, is seventh, at the controls of Bimbo de Lara.
