Nassar, who has been called a “breakout star” and a “stealthy tour-de-force”, following a memorable victory in the $216,000 Longines FEI World Cup Jumping Wellington in February, has had a rising successful career as a show jumper.
Nassar has been considered quite remarkable in the field, acquiring a nickname of “Million Dollar Rider” in 2014.
Nassar started riding at age five. In 2012, he won the Artisan Farms Young Rider Grand Prix Series at the Winter Equestrian Festival. The same year, Nassar qualified for the London Olympics as a reserve rider for Egypt. In 2013, he won the Zoetis $1 Million Grand Prix at HITS Saugerties in New York aboard Lordan. A motivated horse rider, Nassar also qualified for the FEI World Cup™ Finals in 2013 and 2014, and the FEI World Equestrian Games™ in 2014.
