Scott Brash has announced that his longtime partner Hello Sanctos (Quasimodo van de Molendreef x Nabab de Reve) is being retired. The 17-year-old gelding is the only horse to win the Rolex Grand Slam of Show Jumping (Geneva 2014, Aachen and Spruce Meadows 2015). The spectacular athlete has carried Brash to victory in major grand prix events all over the world and was a member of the gold medal-winning British team at the London Olympics in 2012 and earned a team gold and individual bronze medal at the European Championships in Herning in 2013.
On his Facebook page Brash posts a video and writes: “After an incredible journey together, my owners and I have decided it’s time to retire the legendary Hello Sanctos. This short film highlights just what an amazing horse he is and we can’t thank him enough for changing our lives. We will have a special retirement service for him CHI Geneva on Saturday 14 December, a show that means a lot to us as it is where his Rolex Grand Slam of Show Jumping journey started.”
