First brilliant victory of the year for Costanza Laliscia. The spearhead of Italia Endurance Stables & Academy of Agello di Magione dominated the third stage of the FISE Circuit held on Saturday 27 April in Rocca di Papa, Rome, prevailing over the Italian Simone Gigante and the Emirati Ahmed Ali Sultan Al Shamsi, respectively second and third place.
The race course undertaken offered participants the opportunity to preview the track of the classic Italian challenge, the Italian Championships, which will be held in just three weeks, anticipating an epic challenge that will be at the center of attention across the entire panorama equestrian.
In the CEI2* 120 km which marked the start of the Italian competitive sports season, after the excellent results at the beginning of the year in Saudi Arabia, Costanza and Cadzya du Barthas, a thoroughbred Arabian female of 2012, emerged as undisputed protagonists, standing out throughout the competition in the top positions.
The multiple champion of Italy Endurance Stables & Academy demonstrated, once again, her great ability in a technical and demanding track that put all the riders to the test. The Fuxiateam combination crossed the finish line at an average speed of 16.064 km/h, a surprising speed given the important altitude of the course, recording a final loop at 18.367 km/h: the fastest of the entire competition.
Not only. As evidence of the commitment and attention that the entire team constantly reserves for the horse’s welfare, the veterinary commission awarded the Best Condition award to Cadzya du Barthas, as the horse in the best physical condition at the end of the race.
The result of teamwork that crowns the sacrifice, passion and determination that have always characterized Costanza Laliscia, the victory in Rocca di Papa not only reconfirmed her talent, but also allowed her to gain precious points to consolidate her current fourth position in the FEI Endurance Riders World Ranking.
