In the 1.60m World Cup leg in Madrid, thirteen combinations qualified for the jump-off. The jump-off seemed to be built quite challenging. Ultimately, Piergiorgio Bucci won with his 12-year-old KWPN gelding, Hantano (Quasimodo Z).
For a long time, Maikel van der Vleuten was at the top of the ranking in this World Cup. As the third-to-last starter, the Italian Piergiorgio Bucci with the 12-year-old KWPN gelding, Hantano (Quasimodo Z) narrowly went under Van der Vleuten's time.
Even the last combination to start, Michael Pender with the 10-year-old Hhs Los Angeles (Le Roi) managed to improve on Van der Vleuten's time. In the end, Piergiorgio Bucci won the 1.60m class with his 12-year-old KWPN gelding, Hantano.
