Falsterbo Horse Show is set to host one of the strongest line-ups in its history as the Rolex
Series makes its Scandinavian debut. World number one Kent Farrington (USA), world
number two Ben Maher (GBR) and world number three Henrik von Eckermann (SWE) are all
confirmed, alongside several of the sport’s biggest names.
When the international jumping classes begin on July 10, no fewer than six of the world’s top
ten riders will be on the start list. In addition to the top three; Farrington, Maher, and von
Eckermann, confirmed entries include US star McLain Ward (ranked 5), Swiss Olympic
champion Steve Guerdat (ranked 6), and Ireland’s Cian O’Connor (ranked 8).
The line-up also features last year’s Grand Prix winner Sandra Auffarth (GER), Andre
Thieme (GER), Karl Cook (USA), Austria’s Max Kühner and Belgium’s Abdel Saïd.
This means that both the Agria Falsterbo Nations Cup and the Rolex Grand Prix in Falsterbo
are two of the summer’s most prestigious jumping events on European soil, promising world-
class sport and an unforgettable spectator experience.
-To welcome a line-up like this, including the world’s top three riders is absolutely incredible.
Falsterbo is something truly special, a world-class venue with an incredibly knowledgeable
and passionate audience. I can confidently say we’re in for sport and excitement at the very
highest level,” says Josephine Sjölin, Sports Manager of Falsterbo Horse Show.
