This week on Beyond the Stables, we're joined by Íñigo López de la Osa Franco, Monaco's rising showjumper. We caught up with Íñigo at the Longines Global Champions Tour of Madrid to talk about his journey through the sport. Born to a Spanish and Italian family before choosing to represent Monaco, he's already competed under three flags and is now competing at the highest level of international showjumping.In this episode, we chat about his first years in the sport, making the step up to five-star competition, training in the Netherlands, and his move to France to ride with the Delestre family. We also get into his training routine, fitness, recovery, and what life looks like outside the ring.As always, Beyond the Stables is about getting to know the person behind the rider, and Inigo's sense of humour definitely comes through in this one.If you enjoy showjumping, equestrian sport, the Longines Global Champions Tour, and hearing honest conversations with the next generation of top riders, we hope you enjoy this episode.
