1. IRELAND’S Jessica Kurten this evening (Sunday) streaked home to win one of Europe’s richest Grands Prix at La Baule, France.
Kurten, who had been eliminated during her first round at the Nations
Cup team event at Copenhagen on Friday, jetted back to La Baule
immediately afterwards to ride Lady Georgina Forbes’s
Maike> in today’s Longines Grand Prix.
Kurten, who had been lying eighth after the first round, and who with
the other riders had to endure a long gap before the second round
because of high winds, nevertheless piloted her 13 year-old mare to
an unbeatable time of 41.72 seconds in the jump off, narrowly beating
Britain’s Michael Whitaker to the 22,000 euro winner’s purse.
