Le Touquet, France – May 11, 2025 – The 2025 Le Touquet Classic CSI 3 came to an end with a brilliant performance from Nina Mallevaey (FRA), big winner of the €56,800 Grand Prix of the City of Le Touquet 3*. In a sumptuous jump-off, the northern rider created a true equestrian masterpiece, triumphing in front of a conquered audience and a high-flying field. This victory concludes an exceptional second edition, which definitively establishes the Touquet Classic as a major event on the international calendar.
Riding My Clementine, Nina Mallevaey (FRA) dominated a competitive jump-off made up of eight couples. She won ahead of Millie Allen (GBR) & Viarca PS and Matthew Sampson (GBR) & Médoc de Toxandria, offering the public a sporting moment of rare intensity.
Already crowned French Pro Elite champion two weeks ago, world number 1 U-25 and already victorious several times in 1.45m and 1.50m classes this season, Nina confirms her meteoric rise on the international scene. Her victory is all the more significant as she beat riders like Karl Cook (USA), Harry Charles (GBR), Gilles Thomas (BEL) and Cian O’Connor (IRL), all credited with solid performances but insufficient to dethrone the rider from the north of France.
