The Saturday at the 2022-edition of Saut Hermès in Paris concluded with the CSI5* 1.55m Prix du 24 Faubourg accumulator class, and it was Great Britain's Harry Charles on Stardust (Chacco-Blue x Con Air 7) that took home the win. 

Stopping the clock on 42.72 seconds, Charles left Denis Lynch (IRL) on GC Chopin's Bushi (Contendro II x Nairobi) to runner-up position, while Edward Levy (FRA) on Rebeca LS (HH Rebozo x Cassini I) had to settle for the third place. Roger Yves Bost (FRA) and Bluemuch Des Baleines (Chacco-Blue x Clinton) continued their great form finishing fourth, while Jens Fredricson (SWE) on Karmel van de Watering (Diamant de Semilly x Quick Star) placed fifth. 

"I thought is was a really cool class," Charles told World of Showjumping about his evening. "To have the feature class of the evening not be a jump-off is nice for a change, and the crowds loved it. It was quite a big class for an accumulator." 

"I had so much fun riding tonight," Charles continued. "I think having the audience back makes such a big difference for our sport. Tonight the atmosphere was so nice, an indoor show with great crowds is hard to beat. It is also nice that my whole family, as well as Stardust's co-owner Chase Steer, are here. It is the first time he has actually seen her jump, so it is great to have a win in front of him. It is nice to have a great result with everyone here." 

"She is an amazing horse," Charles said about the 12-year-old Stardust. "I am lucky to have two really good horses here. I picked Stardust for this class because it suited her perfectly. She is one of the best horses and I am sure she will do many more good things in the future."
