The Dutch Masters – the highly anticipated first Rolex Grand Slam of Show Jumping Major of the calendar year – came to a thrilling conclusion with the highlight class, the Rolex Grand Prix, which featured 39 of the world’s most elite horse-and-rider combinations.
The atmosphere inside the Brabanthallen was electric, with fans eagerly awaiting to see if reigning Rolex Grand Slam live contender, Harrie Smolders, could secure back-to-back Majors in his quest for the sport’s ultimate prize. However, the road to victory would not be easy, as the competition was fierce, featuring a stellar lineup of riders, including reigning World Champion Henrik von Eckermann and three-time Olympic and the in-form American rider Kent Farrington, all vying for this prestigious Rolex Grand Prix title.
