In Gorla Minore, Italy, there is jumping at CSI3* level this weekend. Yesterday riders were presented with a Nations Cup, today a 1m50 class was the highlight of the day. In this class, precious points for the Longines ranking could be earned. Seven combinations managed to qualify for the jump-off. So a jump-off with seven had to be decisive.
In that jump-off, Gudrun Patteet ensured a Belgian victory. She counted on Sea Coast Monalisa van't Paradijs (by Bamako de Muze) to ride clear to the finish in 38.08 seconds. With this, she was by far the fastest. Her first chaser was Pia Reich. Reich also sent the 10-year-old Pb Djazz d'Arvor (by Quarz de Talma) clear through the course and stopped the chrono after 39.60 seconds, enough to take home second place. For Thomas de Wit, there was third place. He rode the 12-year-old Zangersheide stallion Tools Dw Z (by Toulon) clear through the jump-off and stopped the chrono after 40.00 seconds.
The rest of the top five came in the hands of Italian riders. Paolo Paini (Casal Dorato) and Emilio Bicocchi (Sevillana del Terriccio) finished fourth and fifth respectively.
