Stephan Barcha (BRA) extends his lead for a ninth consecutive month at the top of the Tu Mundo Ecuestre Latin Show Jumping Ranking, but the chase is intensifying.
The Brazilian heads the standings with 2,207 points, followed by Nicolás Pizarro (MEX) with 2,000 points in second place. But the most dangerous pursuer is Marlon Módolo Zanotelli (BRA), former ranking leader for more than a year, climbing two places to number 3 with 1,929 points. His July victories, including the Grand Prix at Sentower Park and his podium in the CSI4* Grand Prix Qualifier at the Longines Global Future Champions in Valkenswaard, bring him dangerously close to the lead.
The month’s big movers
Samuel Parot (CHI) is also closing in, up two places to number 7 with 1,758 points following a strong week of results at Dinard and WEC Ocala, narrowing the gap to the top. Arturo Parada Vallejo (MEX) rises one place to number 6 with 1,761 points. Luis Alejandro Plascencia (MEX) enters the Top 10 at number 10 with 1,604 points. Roberto Terán Tafur (COL) rises one place to number 11 with 1,520 points. Luis Fernando Larrazabal (VEN) rises one place to number 12 with 1,498 points, a month that included his gold medal in the speed class at the Central American and Caribbean Games Santo Domingo 2026. Juan Pablo Gaspar (MEX) rises one place to number 17 with 1,218 points. Federico Fernández (MEX) climbs two places to number 18 with 1,173 points. Pedro Veniss (BRA) returns to the Top 20, rising three places to number 20 with 1,124 points.
The month’s fallers
Eduardo Menezes (BRA) drops two places to number 5 with 1,790 points. Yuri Mansur (BRA) drops two places to number 8 with 1,729 points. João Victor Castro (BRA) drops one place to number 9 with 1,692 points. Luis Pedro Biraben (ARG) suffers the biggest fall of the month, dropping three places to number 13 with 1,448 points.
