    André Rieu? I know he was born in Maastricht in the Netherlands, but the southernmost part of the province that it's in goes to the foothills of the Ardennes Mountains and the name Rieu is of Huguenot origin. I must admit that I'm not sure what the impact crater and horses have to do with it.

    Yes, he is the link. So what has he to do with the three things mentioned in the original question?

    Debussy is a rayed impact crater on Mercury
    Debussy (foaled 26 February 2006) is an Irish Thoroughbred racehorse who won the Arlington Million in 2010.
    Debussy Heights is a minor mountain range rising to 1,300 metres (4,300 ft) (at Ravel Peak) east of Mozart Ice Piedmont in the north part of Alexander Island

    Phew!
