As every year around Christmastime, Jumping Mechelen CSI5*-W appears on the agenda of many of the best show jumpers of the world. Jumping Mechelen is held in Mechelen, Belgium from December 26-30.
The Longines FEI top 3 ranked riders in the world, and also 17 of the top 30 riders in the world will be present at this, the last 5* show and also last Longines FEI World Cup qualifier of 2016. The show also features World Cups of Vaulting and Driving, a CDI4* and lots of entertainment such as pony races and fun costume classes.
In 2015, Germany’s Christian Ahlmann and Taloubet took top honors in the World Cup qualifier, and with the enigmatic stallion still on top form and Ahlmann now ranked as the number one rider in the world, he could very well repeat the feat.
