Show jumping rider Chris Chugg achieved the best finish ever by an Australian when he claimed seventh place at the Rolex FEI World Cup Final in Geneva, Switzerland. Riding his 12-year-old stallion Vivant, Chugg had a clear first round, a few rails down in intermediate rounds, and a perfect final round over the challenging courses of obstacles. Vivant produced a strong effort in spite of jumping out of his stall and suffering minor injuries soon after arriving at the competition venue.

Chugg, who is sponsored by Kentucky Equine Research, will train and compete in Europe for the summer and is hoping to represent Australia at the World Equestrian Games to be held this fall in Kentucky. He uses Endurance feed from St Hippolyt, KER's Team Member affiliate in Germany, and has selected KER products Restore, Glucos-A-Flex, EquiShure, EO-3 and Preserve to support his horse's training and performance. "This horse just keeps getting better," Chugg commented after finishing the World Cup competition.
