Three combinations decided not to start in the second round. Olivier Philippaerts (H&M Legend of Love), Pieter Clemens (Icarus) and Willem Greve (Zypria S) spared their horses for the Rolex Grand Prix tomorrow. First at the start in the Jump-Off was Daniel Deusser with his 14-year-old Cornet Obolensky -son Cornet d'Amour. The pair set the bar with two jumping faults. Doron Kuipers was the first to set a clear Jump-Off round with his 11-year-old Charley (Calido I). Kevin Staut followed and immediately bested the time of Kuipers taking the lead with Calevo 2 (Casall). Last year's Grand Prix winner, Niels Bruynseels followed and made tention go higher as he crossed the finish faster again with Joe Clee's former, Utamaro d Ecaussines (Diamant de Semilly). Eventually it was local rider Maikel Van der Vleuten who took another victory in the saddle of Dana Blue (Mr Blue).  Christian Ahlmann eventually settled for runner-up aboard his mighty Dominator 2000 Z  (Diamant de Semilly) .
