Kevin Staut at Jumping Bordeaux 2016. Ph. Eric Knoll
Show jumping returns to the French city of Bordeaux, for the CSI5* Jumping International de Bordeaux, an annual fixture on the sport’s calendar since 1978. Bordeaux stands out as one of the qualifying competitions that has survived since the FEI World Cup circuit’s inception. This year, the show will take place from February 2-5, 2017 at the Bordeaux Exhibitions Centre.
Last year’s Longines FEI World Cup Bordeaux winner Kevin Staut, and also the 2016 Grand Prix winner Penelope Leprevost are both heading to the French show to try and defend their titles. But with an all-star list of the world’s best riders, it will not, as ever, be an easy task.
