Azzurri gear up for Longines GP

Let’s check out the latest results now from the CSI5* Basel ahead of the highly anticipated Longines Grand Prix which will be held later today.
In front of his fans, Pius Schwizer took victory in Saturday’s main event the Prize of the Grand Hotel Les Trois Rois over 1.50m thanks to a double clear with Balou Rubin R.
In second spot we find Belgium’s Niels Bruynseels with Angel van T Hof followed by Werner Muff with HH Fleur. Unfortunately there were no ranked Italians in this trial.
However there was better Equestrian World in the 1.45m against the clock as Luca Maria Moneta finished in third place with Neptune Brecourt which was won by Philipp Zuger. SEE HERE for more: http://www.longinestiming.com/#!/equestrian/2017/1273/html/en/longinestiming/resultlist_14.html
Moving on there was more good Equestrian World for the Azzurri with Emanuele Gaudiano taking the spoils in today’s CSI5* 145 against the clock with Carlotta.
Patrice Delaveau was second while there was another Italian on the podium in the form of Luca Maria Moneta who came third with Neptune Brecourt.
Fellow Azzurri star Alberto Zorzi also gave a good display and rode his way to 16th with Cornetto K.
The spotlight now falls on the Longines Grand Prix (14.15). Flying the flag for Italy will be Piergiorgio Bucci with Driandria, Emanuele Gaudiano with Chalou, Lorenzo De Luca with Armitages Boy and Alberto Zorzi with Fair Light van’t Heike.
