Longines reveal two new awards

THE FEI and its top partner Longines have announced the creation of two new awards recognising achievement and outstanding performance in show jumping across the globe by revealing the first ever best jumping rider and best horse awards.

Accumulating points throughout the whole calendar year, the Longines FEI world’s best jumping horse will be determined from the horse’s 10 best results of the year in the Longines rankings, whereas the Longines FEI world’s best jumping rider will be the leading rider in the Longines rankings at the end of the year.

Capturing the suspense and excitement throughout the year as the world’s best jumping athletes and horses battle it out on the international circuit, the winners’ of these two new awards will be presented with a Longines watch and trophy during the Longines FEI World Cup jumping final held in Paris in April 2018.
