Background

Nicolas has ridden since childhood and has been operating as a professional for the past 20 years. Today, Nicolas divides his time between being a professional showjumper and a coach at his stable yard, Cuadra Macaria. He competes in North America throughout the year.

Crossing Jordan (Champion Du Lys/Calypso II) was an instrumental horse in getting Nicolas exposure to the international showjumping scene. Crossing Jordan has now been passed down to Nicolas’ son to ride.
