After a week of hard work, pavilions 12 and 14 of the Madrid Fair are now ready to host the seventh edition of IFEMA Madrid Horse Week, one of the most exciting World Cup Equestrian events in the Spanish capital. The Spanish Eduardo รlvarez Aznar won gold in the CSI5 * Hola Trophy and the German Marcus Ehning was the last undefeated of the day in the Six Bars competition.

The first day started early in the morning with the Exterior Plus Trophy. Only 12 years old, Carlos Bohro, the youngest rider of the event, has won the first test of 1.25m, riding his horse, Eberlin M. The second place, for a tenth of a second difference was Kevin Gonzรกlez de Zรกrate with his horse Calipso van de Bergdalhoeve Z. This Spanish rider has arrived at the IFEMA Madrid Horse Week after winning last weekend in the CSN5 * Top Ten, which was held at the Club de Campo Villa de Madrid. He was joined on the podium by another Spaniard, Alejandro รlvarez Gutiรฉrrez and his gelding Little Chap S.

At 11.45 a.m., to spice things up, the bars were risen up to 1.40m in the Hipรณdromo de la Zarzuela Trophy. The Portuguese Luis Sabino Gonรงalves and his horse Unesco du Rouet have delighted the public with a very fast round, three seconds faster than the Spanish Marco Juncadella Hohenlohe and his horse Urbain des Grezils. The bronze was awarded to another Spaniard, Ismael Garcรญa Roque, who remained first in the test, until Juncadella entered the track.
