GCT: Nico van der Plaetsen wins in Antwerp
The GCT of Antwerp is in full swing. Just moments ago, the two phases special 'Pommery' class, was ridden. It was a class with fences built up to 1.30m. Ines Van Den Bosch, the winner of the previous class, stayed in the lead for a very long time. But just at the end Nico van der Plaetsen and his stallion Ultra Blue J beat her time with only 0,11 seconds. Van der Plaetsen finished in 30,26 seconds, Van Den Bosch and Watch Me (Cantos) crossed the line in 30,37 seconds. The Italian rider Felip Coutinho Mendonca Nagata completed the top 3 with Chandor.

Dimitry Noterman finished on fourth place with Bacardi-Rhum de Muze, a son of Kannan. The Greek rider Maria-Milena Pappa ended fifth with Unato.

The Belgian riders seem to be in good form in Antwerp. Guillaume Ruant (Dundee de Litrange Liv), Claire Putters (Fa Belle van Sombeke), Nico van der Plaetsen (Fantast C), Mike van Belle (Hakuna Matata C en M) and Karin Oris (Dry Sherry) ended in the top 10 as well.
