New Zealand’s best showjumpers are heading to Taupo this week for the Christmas Classic World Cup Show.
It’s getting to the business end of the POLi Payments and McIntosh Global Equestrian FEI World Cup qualifier – the nation’s highest-ranked series with riders chasing valuable points before the January final.
Back-to-back series winner Tegan Fitzsimon (West Melton) is leading the charge on a perfect 60 points from the three rounds so far. She’s got her star Windermere Cappuccino on the card. His track record is impressive right from his first World Cup start in November 2018 with six wins, four seconds and always in the placings.
