Céline Schoonbroodt-De Azevedo and her faithful Goddess of Embruns won the Grand Prix of the CSI 4* of Abu Dhabi, this Sunday, December 15.
Thirty-six couples took part in this 1.55m event, and eight of them qualified for the jump-off. During this one, Céline Schoonbroodt delivered the fastest of the four double clear rounds recorded in 40”63 with her daughter of Mylord Carthago, which had already enabled her to win a similar event also contested in Abu Dhabi a year ago. just under a year. This time, the Belgian and her Selle Français were ahead of Mariana Frauches Chabes with Obi van Klapscheut, whose last two outings in international Grands Prix had ended in retirements. Both passed the cells in 42”01. Trevor Breen completed the podium alongside his good Highland President. Returning to competition for two weeks after a long break following their impressive fall in the CSI 5* Grand Prix in Hamburg, the couple crossed the finish line in 42”21.
