On Thursday at lunchtime, Julien \u00c9paillard and Easy Up de Grandry claimed victory in the opening CSI5* class of the German show, the Prize of the Soers. A 1.45m two-phase competition featuring eighty-two combinations. Behind the win, there was of course a blistering time. But also a first real full-scale test ahead of this summer\u2019s World Championships.
