The Horse Show takes place on November 28-December 1.

Most of the Swedish elite participates in the show jumping competitions. Henrik von Eckermann is joined by, among others, Peder Fredricson, Rolf-Göran Bengtsson, Amanda Landeblad, and Malin Baryard Johnsson.

The latter is also the sports manager for the event.

She has managed to attract Brash, Olympic Games team winner with Great Britain in Versailles this summer, and the Belgian brothers Olivier and Nicola Philippaerts.

"Really strong riders. And they are loyal visitors. Once you've been there, you really want to come back. It's not often nowadays that I need to call up and ask, the riders contact me", says Baryard Johnsson in a press release.

The Swedish riders failed in the Olympic Games but have shown form this autumn. The national team came third in the Nations Cup Final in Barcelona at the beginning of October, Bengtsson has taken several podium places in five-star Grand Prix in recent months, and Landeblad and Fredricson have placed in the World Cup.

Baryard Johnsson can look back on a win in a five-star GP this year and recently came second in the Global Champions Tour in Rabat.
