Namur 24/07/1980 Married, 2 children 28th in FEI World Rankings Not born into a family of riders, Jérôme Guéry started out with pony riding at the age of 10. For eight years he was supported by his parents, trained by his stepfather Jean-Pierre Thonet and monitored regularly by Nelson Pessoa. In 1998, aged 18, he was crowned Belgian junior champion. At 19, Jérôme decided to stand on his own two feet and was taken on by Écuries des Hayettes where he trained many young horses including Mozart des Hayettes and Hugo Gesmeray. In 2000, Jérôme met his future wife Patricia, then a lawyer at the Brussels Bar and also passionate about horses. A year after meeting, in the summer of 2001, Patricia requested a suspension from the Bar and the couple decided to set up their own stables. First, they settled for a few months in Jérôme's family stables in Assesse, before moving to Écuries du Harnoy and other rented premises at Haras de Bornival and Haras de Wisbecq. For five years they developed their string of horses as well as their clientele and also embarked on a promising collaboration with breeder Luc Henry (Hero stud). The couple partnered with Henry to buy the two-year-old Tic Tac du Seigneur who, after a long period of training, helped Jérôme to be crowned Belgian champion in 2012. The baton then passed to Upper Star, bought early in 2011. Progressing through 1m competitions, Upper Star honed his performance to the point of competing with the top pairings in the famous Aachen event in August 2013. In the summer of 2013, Écurie Guéry began a new partnership with Élevage du Seigneur by welcoming the brother of Tic Tac du Seigneur, Boyfriend du Seigneur. A year later, this horse placed third in the Belgian championships for seven-year-olds at the 2014 CSIO Lummen, at which Jérôme also won third in the Grand Prix with V Pleasure. By the late summer of 2014, Écurie Guéry had gained two additional breeders in the shape of Daniel Boudrenghien (Sitte stud) and Don Leys (Hedoniste stud) and had begun a new partnership with the Mariposa stud (Koen De Brabander), welcoming the daughter of the talented Flora de Mariposa. 2015 was an exceptional year for Jérôme. With the arrival of Papilllon Z at Écurie Guéry, victories were not long in coming. The first was at a five-star Grand Prix in Lummen. A few weeks later, the pair triumphed again in a five-star Grand Prix in Knokke and then at the four-star Grand Prix in Mons. Starting in 120th place in the FEI Rankings in January, Jérôme Guéry was knocking on the door of the world's Top 30 by the end of 2015. Dramatic progress thanks to the results achieved by Papillon Z - but also by Zojasper, entrusted to Jérôme by the Tal Milstein stables. In 2016, Jérôme did not have long to wait before br ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bhZ0VVBvbw
