Jessica Springsteen, who finished fourth in the Grand Prix, had an outstanding week and was awarded the title of best rider of the CSI*** circuit. Her consistent performances throughout the competition earned her the top spot, ahead of Odile Gierech from the Netherlands in second place and Belgium’s Mike Van Olst in third. Jessica looks forward to the Brussels Stephex Masters every year, and this year was no different. “This show is absolutely amazing. A huge crowd and an incredible atmosphere—it’s always so much fun to ride here.”
