Before the Longines Global Champions Tour Grand Prix of Cannes breaks loose, Hans-Dieter Dreher warmed up the crowd by winning the CSI5* 1.50m class of Cannes. For the guest country, only Philippe Rozier was able to be placed in this class.
The second and last Belgian combination was Gilles Thomas. One of the last to start, he bet on Feromas van Beek Z (by Fantomas de Muze). The Zangersheide stallion didn't let his legs drop either and was ridden to the finish by Thomas in a lightning-fast time of 60.02 seconds. The Belgian duo was rewarded with silver.
