RUNNING on the same dates at the Dublin Horse Show, the number of Irish riders competing at the Longines Global Champions Tour in London was fewer than usual, however the show, held at the iconic venue of the Royal Hospital Chelsea threw up some memorable moments.

None more so than Pieter Devos’ win in Saturday night’s Grand Prix which secured his golden ticket to the LGCT Super Grand Prix in Prague at the end of the year. The Belgian was among six clears in the first round and set the standard when third to go against the clock, breaking the beams in 36.92 seconds to earn €100,000.
