Description
Van Grunsven on Nelson: the trot was very good but in canter it all fell apart. The horse was not responsive to the aids and constantly bopped his head going behind the vertical. Apparently, it had been a while since Nelson had gone to a competition.

Andreas Helgstrand on Polka Hit Nexen, which won silver at the 2008 World Young Horse Championships. The pair doesn't look quite ready yet for Prix St Georges. Tension and some little mistakes reduced the score but the quality of the mare is amazing.

Description
Hans Peter Minderhoud on Florencio. The trot work is still as impressive as before. In canter, he has difficulties to collect and the collected walk is close to pacing. Collection is always difficult for big movers, such as "Floris".

Patrick van der Meer on Uzzo. What a fantastic combination! Everything looked pure and correct. The traversal movements had good bending. The walk was clear, the contact steady. Only in canter, Uzzo tightened his back and the tempi changes were short.
