One of the standout performers has been 9-year-old Qonquest de Rigo, who claimed a fantastic third place in the Adequan WEF Challenge before playing a key role in securing a runner-up finish for Team Ireland in the Nations Cup last week. In previous weeks, he placed third in the Palm Beach Equine Clinic National Grand Prix and finished in the top eight in the CSI4* NetJets Grand Prix.

Gary de Cerisy has been another star in Allen’s lineup, showing incredible consistency throughout the competition. He kicked off his run with a second-place finish in the CSI4* 1.45m Dodd Technologies class, followed by a third-place result in the CSI4* Dodd Technologies 1.50m. His momentum only grew as he clinched victory in the CSI3* Dodd Technologies 1.45m class before securing fifth place in last weekend’s FEI 3* Hermès 1.50m Classic.

Adding to the string of success, Kingston delivered an excellent performance last week, finishing as runner-up in the prestigious $50,000 Hermès 1.50m Grand Prix. He also placed in a 5* 1.50m class and finished double clear in a 1.40m class a few weeks earlier.
