Four of the five best European show jumpers at the start
The participants promise to be top class. Never before have so many top-class riders confirmed their participation so early. Thanks to the attractive sports programme, each of the four days of the tournament has its own appeal. With Henrik von Eckermann (SWE), Steve Guerdat (SUI), Julien Epaillard (FRA) and Max Kühner (AUT), four of the five best Europeans in the Longines World Ranking have already confirmed their participation. Pieter Devos (BEL), the winner of the Basel 2024 World Cup competition, and Marcus Ehning from Germany will be taking part. From Switzerland, Martin Fuchs, Pius Schwizer, Edouard Schmitz and Janika Sprunger are also already confirmed. After her excellent results recently, another starting place has been reserved for Géraldine Straumann. Seven five-star jumping competitions with prize money of 840,000 euros are on the programme. There is also a tour for talented young riders up to the age of 25.
