Swiss celebrate special win in Dublin
It has taken 40 years to make it happen, but today Team Switzerland held the Aga Khan Cup aloft when winning the sixth and last leg of the Longines FEI Jumping Nations Cup™ 2023 Europe Division 1 series in Dublin, Ireland.
On a high-scoring afternoon Swiss supremacy was emphatic, their zero scoreline in stark contrast to the remainder of the field. Team Great Britain, winners on their home turf at Hickstead two weeks ago, racked up 57 faults to finish last, behind Spain on 28, The Netherlands on 24, Belgium on 21 and France on 20. Third place went to Mexico - always welcome visitors at the Irish venue - who completed with 16 faults on the board, while the hosts finished second on a total of 12.
