Daniel Bluman is the new rider of Kent Farrington’s 2023 Pan-Am team gold and individual silver medallist Landon (Comilfo Plus Z x Quadrillo, born Crack de Nyze Z), now known as Landon de Nyze as his new rider has added back the suffix of the breeder Danny Nijs. 

At the 2023 Pan American Games in Santiago, Chile, Landon claimed team gold and individual silver with Farrington in the saddle. In May 2023, the two won the CSIO5* 1.60m Longines Grand Prix in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico, and in July, the CSI5* 1.60m Pan American Cup presented by Rolex at Spruce Meadows, Canada. After a strong season full of highlights, the pair closed off 2023 on top of the final FEI Ranking for horse-and-rider combinations in jumping. 

Last year, the two won the CSI4* 1.50m WEF Challenge Cup Round 4 and the CSI5* 1.55m Kingdom of Bahrain Stakes for The King's Cup at Royal Windsor Horse Show. 

This week, the 12-year-old gelding is jumping at the Winter Equestrian Festival in Wellington, Florida, with Bluman in the saddle. “Over The Top Stables and myself bought Landon from Kent and the McNerney-family a few weeks ago. Kent and his team have one of the best programs in the industry and Kent himself is one of the best and most competitive riders on tour,” Bluman – a three-time Olympian – said to World of Showjumping. “Most of the horses I ride I have produced from a young age and that has always been my comfort zone. That being said, I’ve always loved Landon and having the opportunity to work with him and learn from him is a great learning experience. We are taking our time getting to know each other before we start setting some goals in the competition ring.”
