The "Grand-Prix of Nations" was the largest German military cavalry event and, at the same time, one of the most important
international competition of the 1930 decade. Since 1934, Switzerland participated in this venue at the invitation of the German Ministry.
In 1934 victory was achieved by Lieutenant Pierre Musy who rode his horse "Salam", sired by "Hazereh" and "Sagacité", from the French stables of Mr. Achille Fould.
In 1935, in Hannover, Pierre Musy won again the event with "Melniz", sired by "Rialto" and "Magnolita". This winning horse was obtained from the Stables of Mr. Alphen Salvador. The Gold
cup of the Grand-Prix of Nations was given to Mr. Musy by General von Blomberg.
