Against the stunning backdrop of one of the most recognisable landmarks in the world, three talented riders are representing Australia in the various CSI1* and CSI5* events at the 2018 Longines Paris Eiffel Jumping. Edwina Tops-Alexander in the CSI5*classes, with her lovely mare California and the stunning stallion Cinsey, is riding to maintain or strengthen her current lead in the LGCT overall rankings and hopefully take a win in the Grand Prix to add to her title from Miami earlier in the season.

In the CSI1*, Julia Lynch (nee Hargreaves) and Georgina Harvey are putting in strong performances. Overnight in the 1.30m, Julia and Tulara Colmine placed 8th and Georgina and Campino 9th and in the 1.35/1.40m Julia and Copabella Vegas placed 8th again with Georgina and Que Sera finishing a very respectable 14th out of the 31 competitors.
