Lorenzo The Flying Frenchman

Lorenzo and his team of grey Lusitano horses were last seen at Olympia in 2008 and before that in 2000.  The popular display will return again this year to wow audiences with a mesmerising display of horsemanship, trust and courage.

His stunt riding and tricks, which include flying over jumps whilst standing on the back of his horses, rely solely on his incredible bond with his horses.  Unfortunately for Lorenzo he suffered a nasty fall whilst at Olympia in 2000, the only one of his career – showing just how dangerous his act really is.

Whilst Lorenzo spends all day with his horses  he never rehearses his routines, saying that sometimes he practices too much, sometimes not enough.

One thing is for sure, he lives for his passion of horses and could not be without the pleasure they give him.
