Bart Bles winner of the Fairchild prize
Only two combinations managed remained in the clear in today's first jumping competition, the Fairchild prize. In this 1,45m competition against the clock, Bart Bles produced a clean, flawless round with Grenoble DN, clocking a time of 78.02 seconds.
Swedish rider Rolf Göran Bengtsson was the last to start with Zuccero and the only other combination without any faults or time penalties. Ibram Hani Bisharat from Jordan took third place with his nine-year-old mare Henriette.
The allotted time proved the biggest obstacle for many combinations. Zes remained without penalty points, but unfortunately did go over the time limit
