Iván Serrano Sáez Soars to the Top in the CaixaBank Trophy CSI 4*

A Coruña, Spain – July 10, 2026 – The €28,200 CaixaBank Trophy CSI 4*, the main event on the first day of the A Coruña CSI 4*, was decided in a jump-off involving the twelve rider-horse combinations who managed to complete the course designed by Javier Trenor (ESP) for the event – featuring obstacles with a maximum height of 1.50 meters – without any faults. Of the twelve qualifiers for the jump-off, eight were Spanish, and this numerical majority was also reflected in the final standings, with Spanish riders taking the top two places.

A brilliant round by Iván Serrano Sáez (ESP) on the veteran Rain Man put the Biscayan rider, who lives in Cantabria, at the top of the standings with a time of 32.29 seconds, a time that no one else managed to beat.

The rider who tried hardest to do so was Sergio Álvarez Moya (ESP), but riding a nine-year-old mare with little experience, Be Blue, the Asturian was unable to go below 32.91 seconds, a time that secured him second place in the final standings.

The remaining seven riders to achieve double clear rounds in the CaixaBank Trophy were some way off the times set by the top two. Sweden’s Angelica Augustsson Zanotelli (SWE) came third with Iron Dames Calvino II de Nyze Z (35.22), whilst another Spanish pair, Joel Vallés (ESP) and Chalawito PS, finished in fourth place after two magnificent clear rounds and a time of 36.03 seconds in the jump-off.

Eduardo Álvarez Aznar (ESP), who came sixth with “Harlequín des Flagues”, and Ismael García Roque, who came seventh with “Tirano”, also achieved a clear round.

The winner, Iván Serrano, received his trophy from Ramón Castiñeira, commercial director of CaixaBank’s businesses in Galicia.
