Santiago Varela had built a challenging World Cup leg in A Coruña. Ultimately, seven combinations qualified for the jump-off. Together with the mare Pretty Woman van 't Paradijs N.O.P. (Vigo d'Arsouilles), bred by Johan Rooms, Willem Greve secured his second World Cup win of the season.
Willem Greve had previously won the World Cup leg in Stuttgart. "This is truly a very special mare to me," Greve reacted. "I own her jointly with the Korbeld family. Mr. Korbeld passed away last year, and I know he was watching this jump-off from above. This mare is part of the family, and she will always stay with us," said the rider from Markelo.
Together with the 10-year-old BWP mare, the Dutchman claimed the final victory, which was endowed with 105,600 euros. He thus relegated Stal Hendrix's rider, Oda Charlotte Lyngvaer with Carabella vd Neyen Z (Carrera VDL), to second place.
The Norwegian followed approximately two seconds behind, ahead of Simon Delestre and the nine-year-old SF gelding, Golden Boy DK (Diamant de Semilly). Just outside the podium followed Edwina Tops-Alexander with Fellow Castlefield (Je t'Aime Flamenco) ahead of Philipp Schulze Topphoff and the 12-year-old Carla NRW (Comme Il Faut).
