The victory in the 1.55m CSI4* Grand Prix in Vejer de la Frontera was decided after a jump-off with eight riders. In the end, Gerrit Nieberg secured another win with Ping Pong van de Lentamel. The duo had already won the Grand Prix the previous week!
Belgium’s Roy van Beek was one of the first to start in the jump-off. Ultimately, he had to concede victory to Gerrit Nieberg, who rode the 10-year-old BWP-gelding Ping Pong van de Lentamel (Emerald, breeder: Hulde Aan de Bok bvba). Nieberg and his 10-year-old gelding finished in 38.15 seconds. As such repeated their Grand Prix win of a week earlier.
Roy van Beek took second place with the 10-year-old gelding Cavoire-H OLD (Casallco), bred by Paul Forkert. The pair crossed the finish line in 40.31 seconds, staying about one second ahead of Riccardo Pisani, who rode the 12-year-old gelding Chatolinue PS (Diablo Blanco). Only these top three managed to complete the jump-off without faults.
Just outside the top three, Billy Twomey finished in fourth place. The Irish rider and Jumping Jack van de Kalevallei (Kannan), stayed ahead of Antonia Andersson and Bella PS (Messenger).
