El Jadida, Morocco – October 17, 2026 – Having already claimed victory in the 2-star Grand Prix in Rabat, Jeanne Sadran (FRA) and her talented Funky Boy des Rêves added El Jadida to their list of achievements. Seventh to go, the French pair held off the other 30 starters, crossing the finish line in 64.29 seconds.
The only rider to post a faster time was fellow Frenchman Simon Delestre (FRA), who also happens to be her coach, but unfortunately incurred four faults after knocking down a rail. In the space of just two weeks, Sadran and Funky Boy des Rêves have celebrated their first international victory together, followed by their first win at 5-star level.
“I’m really happy with this victory,” said the winner. “It was a well-designed course, and I really enjoyed competing in this class. Funky has been having a fantastic tour, and I’m delighted to see him getting the recognition he deserves. My focus now turns to tomorrow’s Grand Prix, where I’ll be competing with Nopal Van Tallaert.”
Portugal’s Ricardo Gil Santos (POR) took second place aboard Gatsby Diamond (66.76 seconds), while the Netherlands’ Finn Boerekamp (NED) completed the podium in third with Danny Boy 111 Z (66.98 seconds).
