October 20, 2024 – Spanish rider Eduardo Álvarez Aznar has had a memorable performance at the Longines Global Champions Tour Grand Prix in Rabat, taking first place alongside his experienced partner, Rokfeller de Pleville. At 19 years old, the veteran horse continues to demonstrate his extraordinary quality, remaining competitive at the highest level.

The team's rapport and solidity were evident at each obstacle, culminating in a well-deserved victory.

This triumph, in addition to reinforcing the outstanding season of the Marqués de Riscal rider on the Longines Global Champions Tour 2024, marks a special milestone in his career: having already achieved six podiums in Grand Prix throughout this season, this seventh represents his first victory in a Grand Prix on the circuit.
