Only eight combinations qualified for the jump-off in tonight's 1.50m Longines Ranking Class in Zandhoven. Aboard Hope Van Scherpen Donder (Quadrillo) it was Abdel Said who speeded to victory with almost two seconds difference. Paola Amilibia followed as runner-up in the saddle of the Chacco Blue-son, Chac Balou N. For his own crowd, Dominique Hendrickx completed the stage. Together with Bacardi Les Hauts (Rexar du Houssoit) he stayed ahead of Olivier Philippaerts. Philippaerts placed fourth with Icos (Cicero Z Van Paemel). Also Pilar Cordon seems to be ready for the upcoming FEI World Equestrian Games in Tryon. Together with Grand Cru van de Rozenberg (Malito de Reve), Cordon completed the top five.
