They are realy fabulous. Belgium's super pair, Olivier Philippaerts and H&M Legend of Love shined in the spotlight after their win in the CSI5* 1.55m Audi Prize at the Indoor Brabant. Last year Philippaerts appeared unbeatable in the prestigious Audi Prize and this year again.
A total of ten combinations returned for the jump-off designed by Louis Konickx. Ruben Romp immediately started off with a risky, but excellent jump-off aboard Audi’s Teavanta II C Z in the Audi Prize. They stopped the clock at 39.22 seconds. A great time, but Ireland’s Bertram Allen was determined to better it. Riding his mount Quiet Easy 4 (Quidam’s Rubin x Zapateado) he finished in an amazing time of 36.18 seconds, but unfortunately jumped down the back rail of the last oxer.
