Gij\u00f3n is preparing to experience one of the most brilliant editions in its equestrian history. From 26 to 31 August, the Las Mestas Municipal Equestrian Centre will host the 82nd edition of the Gij\u00f3n International Show Jumping Competition (CSI4*), an event that has already generated great anticipation thanks to the participation of top-tier global figures, along with the attraction of 520,000 euros in prize money and the extensive television coverage planned.<\/p>\n

The provisional entry list features names that guarantee top-tier entertainment. Among them are Germany's Richard Vogel (world no. 6 and current European champion), France's Julien \u00c9paillard (world no. 12) and the Netherlands' Sanne Thijssen, winner of the 2024 Gij\u00f3n Grand Prix.<\/p>\n

Also featured are renowned riders such as the Saudi Abdullah Alsharbatly, the Irishman Billy Twomey, the German Janne Friederike Meyer-Zimmermann, the Austrian Gerfried Puck, the Italian Emanuele Gaudiano, and the Frenchwoman P\u00e9n\u00e9lope Leprevost, team gold medallist at Rio de Janeiro 2016.<\/p>\n

One of the most anticipated moments will be the return of the 70-year-old British legend, John Whitaker. With six Olympic appearances, a silver medal in Los Angeles 1984, five World Championship medals and fourteen European medals, his presence will be a living tribute to equestrian sport.<\/p>\n

The Spanish delegation will be led by Eduardo \u00c1lvarez Aznar (74th in the FEI ranking), Armando Trapote, Iv\u00e1n Serrano, Teresa Bl\u00e1zquez, Kevin Gonz\u00e1lez de Z\u00e1rate and Jes\u00fas Garmendia. Asturian riders Julio Arias, Sira Mart\u00ednez, Pablo Santiago Artime and Carlos L\u00f3pez Fanjul will be representing the autonomous community.<\/p>\n

The jury will be chaired by Daniel Gonz\u00e1lez \u00c1lvarez, joined by guest international judge Jacques Boyer and course designer Peter Schumacher.<\/p>\n

The CSI4* Gij\u00f3n will have the backing of sponsors such as Central Lechera Asturiana, Fundaci\u00f3n Caja Rural, Lacera, Mahou, Volvo and Coca-Cola, among others. The Grand Prix will bear the hallmark of the Municipal Sports Board of the City Council of Gij\u00f3n.<\/p>\n

The competition can be followed live via RTVE Play and the regional television of the Principality of Asturias, and on a deferred basis on Teledeporte. It will also be available for streaming on the platform\u00a0ClipMyHorse.TV.<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
