This morning, the CSI5* combinations started early in 's Hertogenbosch. In the 1.45m morning class, Peder Fredricson left the competition behind with the Swedish-bred Hansson Wl. As such Fredricson continues his form.
"So far the week has been good," the Swedish showjumper says. "I' here in 's Hertogenbosch with two older horses and both feel great ..."
Fredricson and the son of Hip Hop, Hansson Wl, stayed just seven hundredths of a second ahead of Julien Anquetin with the 10-year-old SF mare, Fiona des Ibis (Quamikase des Forets). Fellow countryman Simon Delestre completed the top three with Golden Boy DK (Diamant de Semilly).
Starting last, Mans Thijssen jumped to fourth place. Together with KNockout Eb (Etoulon), Thijssen finished clear, ahead of Harrie Smolders and the 12-year-old Deesse de Kerglenn (Mylord Carthago *Hn).
