This year’s LeMieux Puissance at the London International Horse Show was one for the ages as 20-year-old Rachel Proudley and Easy Boy de Laubry Z jumped to their second consecutive title as the sole pair to jump clear all the way through. The wall was ultimately set to 2.21 meters (7’3″). The world record for Puissance is held by Franke Sloothaak and Optiebeurs Golo, who jumped 2.4 meters (7’10”) in 1991.
