The Rolex Grand Slam of Show Jumping has returned to The Dutch Masters, offering four days of world-class competition. The VDL Groep Prize gave the elite field of riders their first chance to qualify and secure a spot in the highly anticipated Rolex Grand Prix – part of the Rolex Grand Slam of Show Jumping.
Starting the class was Brazil’s Marlon Modolo Zanotelli, who, as the first into the arena, set the tone with a smooth clear round. Next to go, Peder Fredricson made it two for two, ensuring the passionate crowd would be treated to a jump-off. The first of the Dutch riders to secure a place to jump for glory over the shortened course was Kim Emmen and Imagine, who delighted the Brabanthallen crowd with a confident clear round – a result quickly replicated by compatriot Mans Thijssen.
