Bill Gates’ eldest daughter, Jennifer Gates, and her husband, Nayel Nassar, are at the top of their game in the 2023 season. Especially Nassar, who is keeping up with his dreamy run of the season, consistently securing one accolade after another with each performance. Not many days have passed since the Egyptian American showjumper reigned supreme at the Hampton Classic Grand Prix CSI 2*, securing gold and bronze at the event.

Following this, Bill Gates’ son-in-law is again in the headlines for his professional showjumping brilliance. He has once again stood atop the podium of a CSI 2* Stakes race at a fan-favorite equestrian competition. A recent social media post reported his victory, creating a buzz among equestrian fans.

Evergate Stables took it to Instagram and congratulated Nassar and wrote, “Nayel Nassar and El Conde win the 1.45m CSI 2* Welcome Speed Stake at Tryon International , besting a field of over 90 horse and rider combinations! Go team!” 32-year-old Nassar, along with his equine partner El Conde, swept the podium finish at the 1.45-meter CSI 2* Welcome Speed Stake. The competition took place at the Tryon International Equestrian Center, where Nayel Nassar secured the lead, closely trailed by Conor Swail riding Count Me. Amanda Derbyshire also made it to the top three with her horse, Wonder F.

For the pair of Nassar and El Conde, this was another remarkable victory, as the duo has managed to secure the numero uno spot possibly at every event that they participated in. Earlier in the month, Nassar and his team were able to qualify for the FEI World Cup and the FEI World Equestrian Games.

In the same month, he also participated at the Greenwich Polo Club, where he was part of the Trelawny Trailblazers squad that featured Daniel Bluman and Conor Swail and was able to finish in the top spot in the event. This is just the tip of the iceberg in Nassar and Evergate Stables equestrian endeavors in 2023.
