At the DKB Pferdewochte in Hohen Wieschendorf the highest built fences were 1.55m high. With twelve combinations at the start of the second round, Germany's Philipp Schulze Topphoff secured a home win aboard Carla NRW .
Topphoff and the 11-year-old mare by Comme Il Faut stayed more than a second ahead of David Will with Kansall (Kannan) in the 1.55m main event. Will and the 10-year-old son of Kannan were followed by Marc Houtzager with Sterrehof's Dante (Canturano).
Houtzager and the 16-year-old KWPN horse were just over a second faster than fellow countryman Kevin Jochems. Jochems finished just outside the top three riding the 10-year-old Camilla van de Helle (Crumble).
In front of his home crowd, Marcus Ehning completed the top five with the 11-year-old Coolio 42 (Casalito).
