In Valencia, two classes were already completed in anticipation of the Grand Prix, which will be ridden later today. In the final for 7-year-old horses rode Rodrigo Bass to victory. He counted on In And Out DB (by Elvis Ter Putte) to jump a clear jump-off in 39.06 seconds. He was obviously the fastest of nine jump-off competitors.
Second place was for Charlotte Spaas Levallois. She could keep the zero in the saddle of the Nonstop gelding Ecuador de Beaufour and stopped the chrono after 42.09 seconds. The best Belgian performance came from Simon Morssinkhof. He rode Dynamite vh Legitahof Z (by Diamant de Semilly) clear in 42.21 seconds.
Charlotte Spaas Levallois (Jivollette van Beek) and Bertrand Genin (Obolenky d'Arsouilles) completed the top five.
