Isabell Werth is not even able to do her Special. She had to flee inside and ride again half an hour later. Warum Nicht couldn't keep his nerves and puts down a mediocre Special, but Werth takes it with good grace and smiles at the crowds.

Even the audience had to open umbrella's under the covered bleachers because the rain came down so hard.
