Longines FEI Jumping European Championship A Coruña 2025
 

Sitting second coming into the individual final at the 2025 Longines FEI Jumping European Championship in A Coruña, Spain, on 1.08 penalty points, Great Britain’s Scott Brash and the sensational 10-year-old mare Hello Folie (Luidam x Diamant de Semilly, bred by Claire Gouin, owned by Lady Pauline Harris and Lady Pauline Kirkham) added nothing to their score over Sunday’s two rounds and secured their second silver of the championship. 

“She has just showed the world, I think, how talented she is this week,” Brash said about Hello Folie. “I always felt that she is going to be a top, top, horse, but until they actually come and do it at this level, you don’t really know. But she certainly proved that over this week, so I am delighted.”

With this photo special, we send our warmest congratulations to Folie, Scott and David!

Going into the final round, I was happy with the second team round on Friday – she just felt really good, and after having the drama the day before, to bounce back and jump around like nothing had happened felt very good and gave me a lot of confidence going into today. But I didn’t know what this man [Santiago Varela] was going to build, and these are certainly the biggest courses she has jumped so far in her life. I think it has been a great championship to sort of look after a young horse and I feel like she has grown up in a week and she is certainly going to use this championship to grow for the future.”

"These courses are the biggest she's jumped up to date so we just try and make the right plan and do the job we see fit – and what will be, will be."
