8 is the record. Casual DV Z is on 7. 🏆

The most CSI5* Grand Prix or World Cup podiums any horse has managed in one calendar year is 8. Greya (Kent Farrington) and James Kann Cruz (Shane Sweetnam) both got there in 2025.

Only six horses have ever reached 7. Pieter Devos and Casual DV Z joined that list on Saturday by winning the LGCT Grand Prix of Cairo.

Her 2026 so far:
📍 4 podiums in 9 weeks between January and March (Basel, Doha x2, ‘s-Hertogenbosch)
📍 No podiums from April to August
📍 3 LGCT podiums in 7 weeks (Rome, Valkenswaard, Cairo)

Her seven also came the hard way. Her podium classes averaged an Elo field strength of 710 and 40.9 starters. Greya’s averaged 692 and 36.5, and James Kann Cruz’s averaged 696 and 37.1.

There are two months of 2026 left. One more five-star podium draws her level with the record.

Can she make it 8? 👇 by @equiratings

No horse-and-rider combination has more CSI5* Grand Prix and World Cup podiums in 2026 than Pieter Devos and his homebred Casual DV Z. They’ve finished on the podium six times from 11 starts, with three 2nds and three 3rds. They are still awaiting their first win at the level together.

It isn’t for lack of clear rounds. Casual DV Z has jumped clear in 9 of 12 non jump-off rounds at this level this year, a 75% clear rate against a course average of 24%. That’s the highest of any combination with 10 or more rounds. All five of their double clears ended on the podium, including 2nd in Valkenswaard and 2nd in Rome in their last two Grands Prix 🔥

Next stop: the LGCT Grand Prix of Cairo at the Pyramids. EquiRatings gives them an 11% Win Chance and a 53% Clear Chance, second only to Ben Maher and Point Break on both.

Sharon White is the first woman ever to win a US Equestrian Open Final 🏆

Across the four previous Finals before this one, women made up 52 of the 123 combinations and took four of the 12 podium spots.

But still, the titles all went to men: Christian Kukuk and Kent Farrington in jumping, Ben Ebeling in dressage, Boyd Martin in eventing.

In a sport where women and men compete as equals, it took five Finals for a woman to win one. Here’s to Sharon, and to every woman who came close before her 🥂 by @equiratings

An 18 year wait is over. Sharon White won at Bromont with The King’s Spirit back in 2008. It was her last long-format four-star win, until today. In the rain, the local girl is crowned the US Equestrian Open of Eventing Champion at Morven Park. She is the first woman to win an Open final across any of the disciplines.

She loves Morven Park even though this course hasn’t always loved her back. Eliminated here in 2021. Eliminated again in 2022. Last year, 2nd after dressage, then 20 cross-country penalties and 10th. 2026, she rode the round of her life.

26.0 in the dressage. Clear in both jumping phases.

18 years of getting back on, loading up and going again. It all comes back to Virginia. It’s a win for all the people who keep going and keep believing.

They finish on the podium in 50% of their five-star Grand Prix and World Cup starts, and today Shane Sweetnam & James Kann Cruz enter the CSI5* Highlands Cup Grand Prix as the favourites to win it 🔥

Lillie Keenan and McLain Ward are in front of their New York home crowd and will want to impress.

Kent Farrington & Descartes SR finished second to Daniel Bluman & Corbie V.V two weeks ago in Greenwich and are ready for the rematch 🥊

Who takes top honours today? by @equiratings

Last year, one rail cost him the Final.

Off The Record came to Morven Park in 2025 with a 25.1 dressage and a clear cross-country round inside the time. He then knocked one fence in show jumping and lost to Miks Master C by 0.4.

This year he goes into the last phase leading by 0.3.

Seven international wins, all in short formats. Even an Aachen title. Will Coleman’s 17-year-old has one round left to fix that, at the venue that got away. by @equiratings

Twelve months ago, High Star Hero came to Amenia as the 27th-rated horse in a field of 41. He finished 6th.

He comes back as one of the four highest-rated horses in the 2026 Highlands Cup Grand Prix.

Since October 2025, McLain Ward’s gelding has jumped 16 CSI5* 1.50m+ classes, with two wins and four more podium finishes. His EquiRatings Elo has gone from 650 to 744, a gain of 94 points. On the world Elo ranking he has moved from around 300th to 68th.

The biggest single jump came here. 6th in last year’s Highlands Cup was worth +27, more than any result since.

Can they go better this year? 🔥 by @equiratings
