A total of no less as five FEI Longines World Ranking classes and 600,000 Euros in prize money, that's why the top of the world is heading to Glock's Horse Performance Center in Treffen, this week. Yesterday it was Ben Maher who took home the win in the opening 1.45m class. Sixteen of the over eighty riders went clear in this speed class, and it was extremely close on top with Maher and Contigo 37 (Calato x Quidam de Revel) stopping the clock on 61.62 seconds while Marco Kutscher and Balermo (Baloubet du Rouet x Silvio I) crossed the finish line on 61.68. "I’m here for the first time and I’m amazed. It’s astonishing how the horses, riders and all the spectators are treated!" said Ben Maher in the winner’s interview. Third place was secured by Robert Whitaker, always good for a fast and clear round, on USA Today (Heartbreaker x Capitol I). CLICK HERE FOR THE RESULTS
