Dutch riders Kirsten Beckers had the ride of a lifetime on Broere Jazz in the Grand Prix Special. Scoring 72.280%, the duo placed sixth in the world's best field of competitors. "It went so easily. To my feeling, the test flew by and I didn't have to worry about anything. Everything went automatically," Beckers told the KWPN press officier.
Isabell Werth's Satchmo was voted "Horse of the Year 2006" for his achievements at the World Equestrian Games in Aachen. He received the title from the readers of the German Reiter Revue magazine and was honoured at the 2007 CDIO Aachen. (See video right)
Dr. Schulten-Baumer shocked everyone at the CHIO when he had to be rushed to the hospital on Tuesday after a dizzy spell. He refused to stay there, though, and was back at the Soers show grounds on Saturday.
