WILTSHIRE showjumper Jessica Mendoza capped a fine 2014 with victory at the Gucci Paris Masters CSI2*Grand Prix with horse Spirit T.
Their triumph followed hot on the heels of her victory in the International Young Riders Grand Prix in Holland the previous week, with Nuggets L’Amandour.
“It’s been an incredible year and Paris was the icing on the cake,’’ said the 18-year-old, from Tockenham, near Calne .
Mendoza has moved to a second training and competition base in Eindhoven, in Holland, and has a string numbering more than 12 horses. She also climbed more than 80 places in the FEI Longines World rankings in 2014.
