Just before the start of the 1.60m Worldcup in Amsterdam, the 1.50m Harry Wouters van den Oudenweijer Prize was handed out. Last at the start, Sara Vingralkova (CZE) jumped eventually to the win!

First to start in the jump-off was Belgian rider Jordy van Massenhove with Caleya (Calido I, breeder: Sjaak Bindels). Midway through the second round of this 1.50m class, Martin Fuchs jumped into the lead with his L&L Upgrade (Ultimo). The Swiss rider seemed to be heading for a repeat victory after his earlier win on Saturday.

It wasn’t until the final combination that it became clear whether Fuchs' time could be beaten. Sara Vingralkova ultimately did it! Together with the 12-year-old Constantin 110 (Colestus), the Czech rider finished just under a second faster than Fuchs’ time. Third place went to Julien Epaillard with the 12-year-old Dubai de Soie (Quaoukoura du TY).

The Dutch combinations narrowly missed the podium. Hessel Hoekstra and VDL Stud's Comthago VDL (Comme Il Faut) delivered a faultless round to secure fourth place. Competing in front of a home crowd, Marc Houtzager completed the top five with Loeca N.D. (Gino).

Megan Laseur and Kwanta Kosta PR (Thunder vd Zuuthoeve) followed in sixth place as the slowest faultless round. The fastest time was achieved by Harrie Smolders. Despite one jumping fault, he finished seventh aboard Mr. Tac (Non Stop).
