The Special day was one with torrential down pours. Holger Schmezer is watching Linsenhoff warm up but the thunder storm is approaching rapidly

Groom runs inside, the rain has started

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.

Ignacio Rambla, always a crowd favourite

Fie Skarsoe on Munchhausen TSF

Andreas Helgstrand and Blue Horse Don Schufro: This year or the next, it will be their year!!
