The German show jumpers clearly missed out on the hoped-for home victory at the World Cup tournament in Leipzig. Hans-Dieter Dreher from Eimeldingen, who rode Vestmalle to ninth place, provided the best result in the Grand Prix on Sunday. Irish rider Daniel Coyle secured victory with Legacy. Switzerland's Martin Fuchs came second with Commissar Pezi ahead of his compatriot Steve Guerdat with Double Jeu d'Honvault.
None of the four German riders managed a clear round in the jump-off with a total of 13 pairs. The second-best German result was achieved by Kendra Claricia Brinkop, who lives in Belgium. The 30-year-old came tenth with her horse In Time. Leipzig was the eleventh of 14 stops in the Western European League.
