Horse Bytes goes ringside at Desert International Horse Park for the World Cup in Thermal.

What a week. Take a look at this week's 5 'n 10. We cover the World Cup in Amsterdam, the 5* in Doha, and the burning topic of two-stride doubles. Hearing from our host Dani G Waldman, world no. 2 Steve Guerdat, and course designer Quintin Maertens.

We at Horse Bytes don't think anyone was beating Willem Greve and Highway TN N.O.P. Even though the field strength was a little weak, as Willem said himself that horse is FREAKY.

Horse Bytes is back! 2025 has kicked off with a bang as the flying Frenchman took the win in the World Cup in Basel.

Horse Bytes wraps up the year with an end-of-year special that looks back on the highs and lows of five-star showjumping in 2024.

What a weekend! From Conor Swail securing the MLSJ Individual Title to Ashlee Bond’s fearless win in the final class, we break down all the action from Thermal. Meanwhile, in La Coruña, Philipp Weishaupt and Coby stole the spotlight in a nail-biting jump-off, while Henrik von Eckermann and King Edward marked their 100th 1.60m round—but with a dramatic twist at the last fence.

The Madrid World Cup brought thrilling moments and milestones! Piergiorgio Bucci and Hantano claimed victory with a bold 8-stride move in the jump-off, while Michael Pender and HHS Los Angeles delivered a close second-place finish. Maikel van der Vleuten and Beauville Z celebrated their 100th 1.60m start with a smooth podium finish, marking an incredible achievement in showjumping.

A rich week of five-star show jumping with over 11 million dollars up for grabs.
