Victory coloured French, cheering up the home crowd. Patrice Delaveau and his 14-year-old Lando-mare Ornella Mail HDC finished clear in 52.87 seconds. A total of 20 out of the 71 starters crossed the finishline faultless in this class. Spanish Eduardo Alvarez Aznar and the 9-year-old Top Lulu (by Quidam de REvel) came in close with a finish in 53.09 seconds.
