In La Baule, France, the impressive Derby has been concluded. This class is always a major crowd pleaser, combining showjumping fences with fixed fences and waterjumps. In the end the victory went to Ireland thanks to Denis Lynch. He cleared the derby, which is very impressive!
Lynch selected Rubens LS La Silla for this derby, trusting in his qualities and bravery. The two completed the entire course without any faults and they did so in a fast time. They went through the finish in 132,10 seconds and that was more than enough to claim the victory. The second place stayed in France thanks to Nicolas Delmotte and Denerys du Montceau. They also managed to finish the course without any faults but they were a couple of seconds slower, ending in second place in 139,61 seconds. Only the top two was able to stay clear in this Derby.
Mark Mcauley and Miebello ended in third place. Their time would have been enough for the victory, but a fault prevented that. In fourth place we saw Bryan Balsiger and Urbanus Z. The top five was completed by Levy Edward and Confidence d'Ass. They were very fast but ended up having two faults.
