CSIO San Marino Arezzo: Zanotelli once again dominates
Once again, Marlon Modolo Zanotelli left everyone behind at Boccaccio Arezzo Equestrian Centre, the theater of the third edition of the CSIO 3 * of San Marino-Arezzo.
After signing the 145 class on Thursday and strongly contributed to the victory of his team in the Nations Cup on Friday, the Brazilian rider also won the mixed category 145 on Saturday, the Small Grand Prix “QN The Nation“. Riding Malou he stopped the clock at 35“72 without making mistakes.
Sixteen pairs, about 76 starters, qualified for the jump-off. Ten of whom had two clear rounds.
“Malou,“ said Zanotelli, “is a wonderful mare, among the best I have in the stable. And it has the scope to do more clear rounds. I’m proud to ride it and thank the owners, Markus and Meredith Beerbaum.“
Second place went to France’s Julien Anquetin riding Quanan Rouge (37“86), followed by the Argentinean Fidel Segovia on Bombay Sapphire (38“27).
