Camille and Corentin at CHIO Aachen

One year before the Olympic Games in Paris, France's return to the CDIO5* in Aachen carries a strong symbolism!

To be represented not by one but by two riders at CHIO Aachen is a huge source of pride for any stable.

Corentin and Gotilas, selected by the French Equestrian Federation, took part in the Nations Cup and signed the second best French performance in the Grand Prix, again exceeding the score of 72%.

With 72.5% in the Special Grand Prize, they won their ticket to the music final reserved for the fifteen best couples at the most prestigious international competition of the year. A real simulation of the European championships, CHIO Aachen is a reference. To be among the most successful there is a consecration.

 For their part, Camille and Higgins were invited by the organizer to take part in the CDI4*. Only six months after their international Grand Prix debut, this invitation crowns a promising start to the season for the young couple. After a second place and a personal best at the CDI3* of Geesteren in the Netherlands in June with 71.2%, Higgins confirmed his good form in the famous Deutsche Bank Stadium by once again signing a Grand Prix with a score of more than 71%.

Qualified for the kür, Camille improvises with Higgins a cover on the music of Scoop since they only have ridden the Special Grand Prix together until now. On Saturday evening, in front of a full stadium and at night under the spotlights, Higgins engaged in the freestyle exercise for the first time and signed a performance of more than 76%!
