On Friday evening, the obstacles were built at a height of 1.50 meters in the RAIJ of Amsterdam. In the end, Marcus Ehning outperformed the competition with his 13-year-old horse Stargold (Stakkato Gold).
After a jump-off with thirteen competitors, Ehning secured the lead with his Stakkato Gold son, leaving the Dutch competition behind. Harrie Smolders followed closely in second place, with exactly one second difference, riding his 12-year-old horse Escape (Emerald). Marc Houtzager completed the top three in front of the home crowd, riding Sterrehof's Dante (Canturano).
Henk Frederiks and Impian D (VDL Bubalo) claimed the fourth position, while Kevin Jochems and Casillas van de Helle (Casall) took the fifth spot.
