MicroPerformance are delighted to announce Lorenzo Monachesi as the latest brand Ambassador.

We managed to catch up with this talented young rider, to learn about his journey, ambitions, and reasons for wanting to be part of the MicroPerformance Equestrian Products.

I’m a 27 year old event rider from Italy and moved to Marlborough four years ago to be with Eventing World Champions, Tim and Jonelle Price.

I own two horses here at Mere Farm. Euphorie is an eight year old mare, her stable name is Penny . Then there is Fabienne 507 who is seven, we call her Fabi. Both are fantastic mares and I have high hopes for their future. I will be expanding my string in the near future too.

We are competing all around the UK and Europe and if all goes to plan, I will be competing 4* on Penny later this season. The highlight of my career so far is producing my two mares from five year olds to 3* and 4* eventers.

I started riding with my cousin when I was 16 and then started eventing with Francesco Girarsi. So I was a relative latecomer to the sport. I love the adrenaline you get from eventing, it’s awesome. Because of this, I would say my horses and I enjoy the cross country phase the most. I have huge respect for my horses and all event horses too.
They are amazing animals to put their trust in their rider as they do.

I approached MicroPerformance because I wanted to be a part of a brand that offered great quality products for myself and my horses, so we could perform at our very best, in all conditions. My horses mean so much to me, so it’s important they get the best of everything and that is definitely supported by MP+.
