The Puissance is a special opportunity for riders to compete in Central Park and be a part of the Rolex Central Park Horse Show. A favorite class with spectators for its entertaining and electric atmosphere, the Puissance starts with a wall set at 4 feet, 6 inches high. As horses clear it, the wall is raised, and the thrilling competition continues with each round, showcasing the versatility and athleticism of the horse. Fans hold their breath to see who can clear the towering jump as horses gallop down to the wall.
The Rolex Central Park Horse Show has amassed a significant global media presence since its inception in 2014 and is highlighted by the impressive backdrop of the New York City skyline. The event showcases numerous equestrian disciplines, while the addition of specialty competition opportunities this year will bring an intriguing element of excitement for spectators and participants.
