With 16 nations expected for four days of competition, dressage returns this week to the arenas of the Pôle International du Cheval in Deauville, marking the resumption of the international season following the World Championships in Aachen.
Just like last year, a British pair claimed victory in the Grand Prix today: following Thomas Goode’s win in 2025, this time it was Lewis Carrier and his horse, Diego V. The 18-year-old KWPN (by Spielberg) was a unanimous hit with the judges, earning a score of 71.522%—close to the peak performance level he displayed in 2024. This marks the second Grand Prix victory of their career, following a win two years ago in Wellington, where they scored 71.283%.
Speaking of Aachen, Jeroen Devroe was there with Lestor, his other Grand Prix horse. After a four-month break from competition, he fielded Jackpot, his 12-year-old gelding by Everdale, today. The chestnut posted a career-best score at this level, finishing with 70.283%.
For Corentin Pottier and San Cloud's Lucky, the day also marked a personal best in the Grand Prix: the San Amour gelding, winner this season at Gössendorf and Mariakalnok, broke the 70% barrier for the first time, scoring 70.218%. This also stands as the bay horse's personal best in a CDI Grand Prix.
