The biggest names in show jumping have gathered in Calgary for the CSIO5* Spruce Meadows ‘Masters’ tournament running September 9-13, 2015. Among the superstars are five Rolex Testimonees: Scott Brash (GBR), Kent Farrington (USA), Eric Lamaze (CAN), Rodrigo Pessoa (BRA) and Kevin Staut (FRA).

Five days of international show jumping competition culminates in Sunday’s CP International, presented by Rolex. It will be a nail-biter as Brash, the latest rider to join the Rolex Family, is in contention to become the first rider to win the Rolex Grand Slam of Show Jumping. With wins at CHI Geneva in December followed by a second victory at CHIO Aachen in the spring, Brash is poised to claim the unprecedented €1 million in bonus money on offer to any rider who can win all three grand prix events in succession.

Brash will face stiff competition in his quest to make history, however. One of his greatest challengers will be fellow Rolex Testimonee Eric Lamaze, a two-time winner of the CP International in 2007 and 2011 with the legendary Hickstead.
