As well as three days of entertaining Show Jumping finals, it also provided a prime opportunity for JOC members to meet and discuss any pressing matters. I have outlined below issues that we have debated; should you have any thoughts or feedback, please feel free to contact me. Best Regards, Christian Baillet CLUB UPDATE It gives me great pleasure to introduce the newest members of the JOC.

I remain committed to the goal of increasing our membership figures, and I would like to extend my warmest welcome to Mr. Fiorelli from Italy, Mr. Romo from Mexico, Mr. Pellegrin from France, Mrs. Debany from the USA, Mr. Känhy from Switzerland, and Lady Forbes from Ireland. Following our previous meeting at the Alltech FEI World Equestrian Games™, the club is in a strong financial state. With assets available to spend on initiatives which would help grow the membership of the JOC, I open the table up for discussion on any opportunities in which you, as members, feel the JOC should invest in. A topic introduced in Leipzig was the development of a JOC website to better inform all members, and followers of the sport, of our initiatives and commitment to the development of Show Jumping.

    PRESS RELEASE He has it - Nick Skelton wins the Mercedes-Benz Championat Hamburg - "I won the Mercedes" - Nick Skelton had barely stepped out of the Mercedes convertible and grabbed his phone to spread the news of his win in the Mercedes-Benz Championat. The Hamburg spectators at the German Jumping and Dressage Derby experienced the European Championship bronze medallist and his Holstein bred gelding Carlo in best form: the quick British rider's fault free round in 46,53 seconds was enough to secure the key to the elegant Mercedes-Benz convertible. The Swiss rider Steve Guerdat finished in second place on the Holstein bred gelding Carpalo. "I'm very happy that he did such a good job. I see a lot of potential in this horse", said the Swiss Nations' Cup rider. France's Simon Delestre followed in third place with Napoli du Ry. The French national trainer recommended that his "first group" start at the German Jumping and Dressage Derby. The best German rider was fifth place finisher Ludger Beerbaum with Chiara. The four-time Olympic champion revealed his thoughts as he said, "I have Gotha and Chiara here, but as good as Chiara was today, I think I'll ride her Saturday in the Global Champions Tour competition as well". The 14,500 spectators triggered a lot of enthusiasm on the first - and somewhat cool - day of the German Jumping and Dressage Derby. They were well prepared and conquered the spectator bank and bleachers. For example in the dressage stadium. That's where the Grand Prix de Dressage was decided.
