Saturday’s CSIO***-W International Show Jumping World Cup in Budapest kicked off with the 140cm competition for the €4,000 prize presented by Alpenspan.
In contrast to the previous contests, surprisingly, just a few clear rounds could be seen, but for the €1,000 first prize there was major competition. Two riders completed the second phase within 32 seconds, with the young German talent Sophie Hinners on Grace WB scoring a shorter time, two-tenths ahead of Andrius Petrovas on Giggolo.
