Eleven-Year-Old Dexter Helps Jeanne Sadran Secure Major Victory at Global Champions Tour

Jeanne Sadran, a French woman, clinches Grand Prix victory in Paris

Jockey Jeanne Sadran, riding her eleven-year-old stallion Dexter, emerged victorious at the Global Champions Tour round in Paris. The 22-year-old was the only rider to complete the jump-off faultlessly, securing her the top spot and a prize of over 100,000 euros from the total pool of just over 300,000 euros.

In the jump-off round, four pairs had completed the normal round without faults and progressed to compete. American Kent Farrington on Myla finished in second place, followed by Johan-Sebastian Gulliksen from Norway on America in third place, and Spencer Smith from the USA with Keeneland in fourth place. Although these riders were faster than Sadran in the decisive round, each had one knockdown, giving Sadran the edge in the competition.

The German riders did not have a significant impact on the results of the show jumping event. Philipp Schulze Topphoff from Havixbeck near Münster and Carla were the highest-ranking German pair in twelfth place. In the overall ranking after eight of 15 stages, Spaniard Eduardo Alvarez Aznar continues to lead, followed by Christian Kukuk from Riesenbeck and Max Kühner representing Austria.
