Reem Acra World Cup Final Great Buzz! The spectators at Gothenburg Horse Show always play their part in every competition, creating a great buzz as they get involved with everything going on in the arena. And the intensity of it all certainly affected American rider, Gunter Seidel’s, gelding, Zero Gravity, who looked ready to explode with the excitement of it all when fourth to go. But the threetime Olympian produced a masterful ride to finish his test with the lovely 12-year-old gelding who still managed to demonstrate his huge potential. This pair were followed by the only other US representatives, Charlotte Jorst and Kastel’s Nintendo, who really set the arena alight with a performance that oozed energy and fun. The big bay stallion has exactly the same attitude as his rider who smiled her way through the whole test that was set against a rousing musical score. And Jorst’s determination to complete on exactly the final note led to a sharp intake of breath, because she marched up the centre line and didn’t stop until her music finished, which left her right up against the arena boards and staring directly into the eyes of Ground Jury President, Sweden’s Gustav Svalling. Her mark of 73.232 took the lead only to be overtaken by 73.589 from Australia’s Lyndal Oatley and Sandro Boy. But it was the last rider to go before the judging break, Denmark’s Agnete Kirk Thinggaard with Jojo Az, who held the lead at the halfway stage as they strutted their stuff to post 76.250 to the delight of the crowd. Jessica von Bredow-Werndl challenged strongly when posting a mark of 80.350 with Unee BB despite a couple of errors, but, third-last into the ring, Hans Peter Minderhoud made no mistakes with his 15-year-old gelding, Glock’s Flirt, to go well out in front on 82.357 which would prove unbeatable despite a valiant last to go effort from host-nation heros Patrik Kittel and Watermill Scandic. Emotional Minderhoud, who also won Friday’s Grand Prix, admitted afterwards that he felt the pressure today. “It’s been two long days since the Grand Prix. Normally I’m not really nervous but today I thought I really want this! So I’m really happy that I won!” he said. He talked about Glock’s Flirt. “I have him now for two years and when I got him he was a nice Grand Prix horse but I didn’t expect him to be a winner but he’s just getting better and better. He’s such a great honest horse in the ring, he doesn’t want to make any mistakes - you really feel that he gives just everything to you! I’ve also been riding around with not-so-easy mares and not-soeasy stallions, so it’s so much fun to have a horse like him. You can really rely on him, and that’s an amazing feeling.” > Immediately relegated They were immediately relegated to runner-up spot when the action resumed however by Ireland’s Judy Reynolds and Vancouver K who went out in front on a score of 77.339. It has been an historic week for the sport of dressage in Ireland, as this is the first time the country has been represented at an FEI World Cup Final so the 34-year-old has been creating quite a stir. But Germany’s Fabienne Lutkemeier posted 78.411 with D’Agostino FRH when next to go and then, with just five of the 18 starters left to take their turn, Sweden’s Tinne Vilhelmson-Silfven reset the parameters when producing the first result over 80 percent. After rolling out another technically brilliant performance that included super-tough transitions with her 14-year-old gelding, Don Auriello, she put 81.429 on the scoreboard and that really piled the pressure on the four remaining riders. Germany’s Australia’s Mary hanna and Umbro finished 15th. Photo: FEI/Arnd Bronkhorst/Pool Pic The Stable Magazine www.thestablemagazine.com 29
