We have got a treat for all you showjumping fans as you can watch the Rolex Grand Prix Aachen LIVE on Horse & Country TV.

Rolex Grand Slam

CHIO Aachen is one of the most prestigious equestrian events in the world. Not only is it home to Nations’ Cups in five disciplines (showjumping, dressage, eventing, driving and vaulting) it is also one of the legs in the Rolex Grand Slam.

This exciting series is the toughest competition in showjumping – offering the biggest prize, with €1m bonus going to any rider that can consecutively win three Grand Prix at Aachen, Spruce Meadows Masters, CHI Geneva and the Dutch Masters.

If that same rider then wins a fourth Major in succession, they win an additional €1 million bonus prize.

Scott Brash is the only rider in history to win the Grand Slam – he won at Aachen, Spruce Meadows and Geneva in 2015.

World’s very best

The current contender is Niels Bruynseels, who won the Dutch Masters Grand Prix earlier this year. Niels will be competing in Aachen and hoping for another win, with his top mare Gancia de Muze.

However, he faces stiff competition from the world’s very best – including last year’s winner Gregory Wathelet who will be back to defend his title.

Other big names to look out for are Marcus Ehning, Laura Kraut, Eric Lamaze, Cian O’Connor, Ludger Beerbaum and our own Harry Charles, who is the the son of Olympic gold medalist Peter Charles.

Just 19 years old Harry is on great form having just won individual and team gold at the Young Riders European Championships in France.
